And it also said:
"Schiavo's husband, Michael, who wanted to withhold tube feeding after a few years of unsuccessful therapy, had the legal advantage early on. A malpractice verdict gave him $300,000 and her $700,000, and he was guardian of her money. The Schindlers, people of modest means, had only recently paid off a federal tax lien on their Gulfport condominium.
Michael Schiavo, as guardian, could pay attorney George Felos more than $350,000 from Terri's trust fund because the court agreed he was doing it for her benefit.
St. Petersburg attorney Pam Campbell represented the Schindlers for free and couldn't afford to take many depositions or hire expert medical witnesses, she said last week."
I have a daughter and if she were in the position of Terri and she was communicative with me I would take money from wherever I could get it to save her life.
I'll wager that most people on this list that criticize what the Schindlers did don't have children.
