Read this affidavit by Heidi Law. It's in PDF format.

After you do that, go check out the fact that this supposedly totally non-responsive woman makes documented attempts at communication:

From the Empire Journal

Witness: Nurse Heidi Law

* mommy
* momma
* help me

Witness: Nurse Carla Sauerlyer

* pay (meaning “pain” when she was in discomfort)
* Haaaiii (meaning “Hi” in response to “Hi Terri")
* mommy
* help me ("Help me was, in fact, one of her more frequent utterances. I heard her say it hundreds of times.”

Terri’s Mediplex records:

* stop (in reference to one medical procedure being done on her)

Terri’s family members:

* ugh-hugh (meaning yes)
* ugh-ugh (meaning no)
* yea (’yea’ was a word she reportedly first re-learned to speak in 2002.)
* No

All this, despite being refused any rehabilitative services, such as speech therapy.

(Read the article. It has more about them asking for new brain scans to prove once and for all about how unresponsive she is. Thanks to My Vast Right Wing Conspiracy)

If this bothers you, you can be a part of those taking action.
