Medical Forum / General / General / March 2005Codeblueblog Analyzes Terri Schiavo's Cat Scan
CSI MEDBLOGS: CODEBLUEBLOG ANALYZES TERRI SCHIAVO'S CT OF THE BRAIN http://codeblueblog.blogs.com/codeblueblog/2005/03/csi_medblogs_co.html "The most alarming thing about this image, however, is that there certainly is cortex left. Granted, it is severely thinned, especially for Terri's age, but I would be nonplussed if you told me that this was a 75 year old female who was somewhat senile but fully functional, and I defy a radiologist anywhere to contest that. I HAVE SEEN MANY WALKING, TALKING, FAIRLY COHERENT PEOPLE WITH WORSE CEREBRAL/CORTICAL ATROPHY. THEREFORE, THIS IS IN NO WAY PRIMA FACIE EVIDENCE THAT TERRI SCHIAVO'S MENTAL ABILITIES OR/OR CAPABILITIES ARE COMPLETELY ERADICATED. I CANNOT BELIEVE SUCH TESTIMONY HAS BEEN GIVEN ON THE BASIS OF THIS SCAN." [See above link for the rest of the discussion.] >CSI MEDBLOGS: Do you seriously expect anyone with two brain cells to rub together to actually read this crap, much less take it seriously? Look, you and all the bloggers of the world who feel compelled to interject your ignorant selves into this should just shut the f.ck up and politely await your turn to rot in hell alongside the Congress and president of the United States.

Very true, as a layperson, I think it stop becoming a medical issue when the courts got first involved. Now it's a civil rights issue. So let the lawyers and judges work it out, they will be the ones to call for further testing, etc, etc...... later, tom @ www.Love-Calculators.com >>CSI MEDBLOGS: > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >await your turn to rot in hell alongside the Congress and president of the >United States.

Not doubt a few jewels will emerge from the rough, but possession of a keyboard doesn't make you smart or talented. So, you discount the information just because the information was posted by a blogger. How small, narrow-minded, and bigoted of you. Did it ever occur to you that the person who wrote that might be a physician? >From the front page of Codeblueblog: "Dr. Boyle is a man of strong views and good will...read the weblog."

And everyone should read this carefully: http://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id=6942 KM >> >CSI MEDBLOGS: >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >And everyone should read this carefully: Why? It's another political opinion piece based on 5th party information. This is not a political matter. Or shouldn't be. This is real life, real people dealing with a real tragedy that thousands of other people deal with every day. No one else gets congressional and presidential intervention. They make their hideous decisions and move on. The first tragedy here is obviously Terri herself. But the second tragedy is that she has been turned into a circus side show by her parents, their lawyers, politicians, George Bush, Jeb Bush, Congress, the FL state legislature, and the media. And now all the f.cking bloggers have an opinion. Wonderful. Meanwhile, feeding tubes are being removed and ventilators are being turned off every day by real people who have to face real decisions without the "assistance" of bloggers and the US Congress. No, the real tragedy here is that Terri, her husband, and her parents have been made into political play toys and blogger meat. Everyone with a f.cking opinion on this matter who doesn't know the circumstances first-hand, or second-hand through their official capacity in the FL state courts, should hang their head in shame and pray that the same thing doesn't happen to them. >>> >CSI MEDBLOGS: >>> [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > lawyers, politicians, George Bush, Jeb Bush, Congress, the FL state > legislature, and the media. I don't blame her parents and family one bit. When a loved on is involved, people don't always think logically. They tend to grasp at straws. Nor do I blame the families' lawyers, on either side. They are representing their clients. However, I fully blame the Bushes, Congress and the FL legislature. This is matter is should not be a political football. If anything, it shows the importance of checks and balances of the government. > And now all the f.cking bloggers have an opinion. > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > doesn't > happen to them. Actually, one good thing that is going to come out of this is a lot more people are going to have living wills and health-care powers of attorney. So people who end up as Terri does will have a voice that truely speak for them. I do think it is good that the neation is talking about end of life decisions, because it does happen to people. But I feel really bad for Terri and her husband. The other thing I like about this is the actual court records are on the internet. So those who are truelly interested in seeing what the courts did can read the records. Then, they can look at what the courts did and what the Bushes and the legislatures did, and come to their own conclusions about it. Too bad all this effort wasn't used for something useful, like ending the war in Iraq. I guess those 100,000+ people who were killed or the those millions of people who have been affected by the war are not as important as one lade without a functioning cortex.

I heard that you can only blame 3 senators, since that is the number that showed up for the voice vote. >>>CSI MEDBLOGS: >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > KM why? Who cares? we all know the media distorts everything they report. It does not matter that she can breath on her own simply because her autonomic brain functions are working, she is long since gone.............. |
