Brain damaged woman recovers due to not being married to Michael Schiavo

On Sept. 3, 2002, Tracy Gaskill suffered critical internal and head injuries when her pickup overturned. Doctors told her relatives that night that she probably would die by noon the next day, her grandfather, Don Gaskill, told the Ark City Traveler.
"That accident scared us to death," Gaskill said. Both Gaskill and his granddaughter hail from rural Winfield, Kan.
According to the report, the Gaskill family and many others in the Cowley County community prayed for Tracy regularly since the accident, and she had daily visits.
Not only did Tracy live beyond the day after the accident, she gradually began to improve.
Then, about three weeks ago, she spoke for the first time since the accident, about the same time she began to swallow on her own.
Previous to that she was fed via a feeding tube, similar to Floridian Terri Schiavo, who died in March of starvation and dehydration after the court-ordered removal of her nourishment.
Apparently this new medical technique of not having a spouse or relative that wants to murder you to get money, is showing signs of success around the nation in treating people with what was once considered terminal brain injuries. Isn't modern science amazing.

Oh yes that is a very funny look at a very serious subject.
I have returned from Melbourne. My great-nephew's heart operation was a success. He had keyhole surgery to repair two large holes in his heart. This operation is still experimental here in Australia.
Anyway, what a difference it makes when a person is surrounded by love, rather than by hatred.
