MAN "AWAKENS" AFTER 19 YEARS: TERRI SCHIAVO NEVER GOT THIS CHANCE

NYTIMES:
For 19 years — until June 11, 2003 — Mr. Wallis lay mute and virtually unresponsive in a state of minimal consciousness, the result of a head injury suffered in a traffic accident. Since his abrupt recovery — his first word was "Mom," uttered at the sight of his mother — he has continued to improve, speaking more, remembering more.

But Mr. Wallis's return to the world, and the progress he has made, have also been a kind of miracle for scientists: an unprecedented opportunity to study, using advanced scanning technology, how the human brain can suddenly recover from such severe, long-lasting injury.

In a paper to be published on Tuesday, researchers are reporting that they have found strong evidence that Mr. Wallis's brain is healing itself, by forming new neural connections since 2003.
Democrat and Leftist political activist Michael Schiavo was an estranged "ex"-husband - (living with another women who had borne him children) - who wanted his "ex"-wife dead, and the state carried out his wishes by starving and dehydrating Terri to death. If you treated your dog that way you would be ARRESTED.

This NYTIMES article - and other recent cases in shich so-called brain-dead or comatose people have MIRACULOUSLY recovered - is reason enough for me to believe that in the absence of legal written instructions explicitly requesting an end to medical intervention and/or sustenance, that the state should err on the side of life. Where there is life, there is hope.

Miracles are called miracles because they happen infrequently.
