But how do we have proof that's what she wanted?? He never mentioned anything about such a wish until AFTER he was awarded $2.5 million by a jury. He said the $2.5 million would be used for her care and he said she would live with him the rest of his life and he would take care of her. Why did he not mention this wish of hers before he was awarded all of this money??? It seems so fishy to me.
He also mentions that she stated this wish when they were casually watching TV together, and the woman in the movie was in a coma and hooked up to a breathing machine.
He has moved on with his life. He has 2 children now and a common law wife. He refuses to divorce Terri.
I just am not buying the fact that he knows she told him this. It seems pretty convenient to me to play the sympathy card to get $2 mill and then remember out of the blue one of her wishes.
And had Terri had proper therapy, she might be able to verbalize her wishes. As I said before, she has been denied therapy by her husband. WHY?
To be starved to death is brutal and painful and agonizing. Terri can feel pain, she even feels menstral cramps. However, Terri's husband says that she is not being starved to death, rather just all of her nutrition and hydration are being stopped.
Makes me want to scream.
