The Schiavo issue - Page 33

Motorboat Cruiser · 03-31-2005, 06:13 PM

According to the attorney for Michael Shievo, the parents hadn't even arrived at the hospice yet when she died, so they weren't kicked out. According to him (for what it is worth), the family that was "kicked out" was her brother and sister. The reason given was that when it was time for the medical assessment, the brother and sister were asked to step out momentarily. At that point, the brother got quite upset and had a physical altercation with a police officer, who removed him. Michael Shievo decided at that point that it would not be possible to have the brother in the room without the possibility of it getting ugly. He also said that had the parents been there at the time, he would have let them in.

Granted, this is only the word of the attorney but he was in the room at the time, along with approximately 10 others (including 4 or 5 hospice workers) who, I would assume, could back up his story. It would seem odd for him to lie with that many witnesses. And, if it is true, it is a far different picture than that painted by the other side.

The parents attorney says that the brother told him it wasn't true, for what it is worth. As an aside, shortly after death when they were showing coverage around the hospice, I did see what looked like a not-so friendly exchange between two police officers and the brother. I thought it was strange at the time.

The fact remains, of course, that none of this is really anyone's business, like GD points out. It is over (well, maybe not legally) and this woman is finally at peace and her wishes were hopefully carried out. Hopefully the healing process can begin for all involved.

I think Terry Shaivo should be plasticized so she can be displayed in the next Body Wars.

Careful. That head of yours will be on that pike sooner than expected.

If there is a Hell, I expect to be there.

It seems that the more I laugh, the warmer it gets in here. Interesting.
