Here is an excerpt from the article about Bush that VulcanRider linked to...
"I understand that these events took place many years ago, and that you may not be able to collect all the relevant records and physical evidence. However, Mrs. Schiavo's family deserves to know anything that can be done to determine the cause and circumstances of her collapse 15 years ago," Bush wrote. "The unanswered questions may be unanswerable, but the attempt should be made.
I've highlighted the sentence that I feel is the crux of the ENTIRE controversy surrounding Terri Schaivo. Her parents - for whatever reason - simply CANNOT ACCEPT that their daughter was bolemic and that sometimes, CRAP HAPPENS!!!
There AREN'T any "unanswered questions" regarding Terri's collapse and resulting medical condition. The case has been exhaustively reviewedfor 15 years. Terri had bulemia(sp?), which meant she was starving herself. This caused her body to involuntarily "shut down", resulting in her collapse and subsequent loss of oxygen to the brain. And that is what led to the irreversible brain damage her parents have refused to believe she suffered for the last decade and a half.
I admit I was not surprised at all to see that her parents did NOT accept the autopsy result. They have proven they are simply incapable of accepting the fact that a very bad thing happened to her daughter and that it was NOBODY'S FAULT!!!!
While her parents will never admit Michael was innocent, I have to agree with Darlon in my curiosity to see if the IW members that were so critical of Michael will be willing to admit they were wrong.
