Conclusive evidence from the results of the autopsy could provide a final answer to the overwhelming morass of details presented by medical experts of the Schiavo travesty.
Here's a link to an individual who is missing half her brain. Her CT scan looks as bad or worse to the untrained eye than Schiavo's. She is brain damaged but she is cognitive.

We've all heard the statement that "we only use ten percent of our brains". The truth is is that medical science regarding the brain is still in it's infancy and some people just don't understand or don't want to hear that. My guess is that even if the results from the autopsy are made public, that they will prove inconclusive, and further, the MSM will ignore the story.
Personally I believe the poor woman should have been allowed to die a long time ago.
Again, the fireman has experienced a remarkable recovery showing us all that miracles can and do happen. I wish he and his family the best for their newly discovered futures.
