I received this email from Senator Bill Frist:

So many of you have called and written over the past 24 hours on the
imminent death of Terri Schiavo. Thanks for your comments.
 
Many of you refer to my floor statement on Thursday last week. I
encourage you to read it because it sets the stage for why I felt it was
so important to have respected neurologists establish her current
condition and diagnosis since she has not been examined completely in
years. I'd hoped the federal courts by taking a fresh (de novo) look
would have required confirmation of the diagnosis, which some doctors who
have examined her disagree with.
 
Is her diagnosis certain? Has she been evaluated by respected
neurologists (within the last 2 years) with today's medical standards and
technology? These are the questions you ask. I don't know her diagnosis
but there are doctors who have examined her who say that she is not in a
persistent vegetative state.
 
It looks like we will never know for sure.
