Good point about the psychological effect of using a power chair, and also the disconnect between balancing unaided on horseback but needing a power chair to get around. But then, so little about this case has ever made sense (except to the true believers.) IMO, a deep dive into the medical...

I am glad for any evidence that she is improving -- but still wonder if she ever really needed a wheelchair in the first place. Sorry for being so skeptical, but we all can plainly see that it bolsters the family's contentions/legal machinations if she truly cannot walk (but blows a big hole in...

I'm sure the judge is well aware of the obstructions that the Pelletiers typically try to cause when things are not going their way. I'm also pretty sure the judge is having none of it. Can't wait to see what happens next. I notice the family is not posting anything related to the lawsuit on...

So if I am reading your post correctly, there is no basis for suing Dr. Newton at all: she either functioned in this case as a social services provider, not as a treating physician; or as a doctor, but did not directly provide medical care to Justina; and she followed the law by reporting the...

Nosey? No! Just an excellent researcher! IMO, The Pelletiers welcome delays, as it gives them more time to come up with goofy accusations, misrepresentations of what has already occurred and tiny-violin/sad trombone/waaahwaaah postings (they've got a regular orchestra going), all to better...

If I ever need a private eye, I am going to hire AH. No matter how convoluted the legal proceedings get, I fervently hope the hospital finally gets to speak up and out and that it all becomes public. No wonder the Pelletiers are dragging things out, because they probably realize that day is...

Even without reading the actual documents filed in their Connecticut bankruptcy and foreclosure proceedings, you can see numerous, repeated requests for postponements of hearings and rulings, so perhaps this is just the Pelletiers being the Pelletiers. And apparently, in the case of the...

More valuable info here, made easy to understand through the clear writing and explanations that Annahanna provides. I'm hoping for an enterprising reporter to seize on this story, but given what I know about the shrinking staff and resources of the local paper, I don't hold out much hope.

To repeat a posting I just made and somehow lost: I apologize if the original post shows up too. If the Pelletiers lose their case or are told they cannot proceed, the whining and howling from their gullible followers will be deafening. They will just see it as proof that "the system" is out to...

If it is true that the Pelletiers no long face foreclosure on their home, because they unethically used money donated to "free Justina" to pay off the arrears and liens, then they are now living in a $500,000+ home with 11 rooms and an inground pool. Indigent? Not exactly. I hope the court takes...

This is slightly off-topic, but definitely related. Longtime posters on this thread will recall that along with Rev. Patrick Mahoney, Matt Staver of the Liberty Counsel law firm was involved with supporting the Pelletiers. Here is a story from Salon.com that links him to Kim Davis, the Kentucky...

Thanks again for these invaluable updates. I agree that citing the wrong name for Children's Hospital in the original complaint suggests the law firm really bobbled it. IMO, what could be more important than getting the name of the defendants right? Perhaps they have assigned the case to a...

IMO, you got that right. They exhibit a virulent narcissism AND what I can only call greed. Poor Justina. It is so sad to see a vulnerable child exploited this way. I don't feel sorry for their gullible followers: they are adults and have chosen to be duped. But Justina is too young and...

And here is another example of the awful terrible no-good doctors at BCH, who have pioneered a new treatment for torn ACLs in the knee. http://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/2016/03/23/new-surgery-could-revolutionize-knee-repairs/BJISuh60AYKYTKWPwaYFWP/story.html#comments I guess the Pelletiers...

Do we know for sure that this case will be heard? Is it possible that it could be dismissed before it ever gets to that point? I really hope not, because it may be the only way BCH will ever get to tell its side of the story. And the Pelletiers will be under oath and subject to perjury charges...

Thanks for the lawsuit link. Yes, Harpocrates really has a good handle on all the twists and turns of this maddening case. I hope he will continue to post about it.

Thanks for keeping us up to date on the lawsuit. Can you provide a link to the court website that tracks new motions and petitions? I came upon a very valuable website yesterday, harpocratesspeaks.com, which offers a very detailed and even-handed account (though it does not hesitate to call...

Apparenty, my problem was that the Katz material had been added to the thread after the initial 46 comments were posted, and to see it required clicking on the Top Comments/Most Recent buttons, which was news to me. And yes, the Pelletiers seem to prefer carrying Justina around, rather than...

Success! Tried it again and clicked on Most Recent and finally, the Katz photos showed up. Again, thanks to all of you who helped!!

Went to Miracle page and found an entry for Feb 25 at 11:31 pm with 46 comments, but no entry for Feb 25 at 8:31 pm. Which must be why I cannot find the Katz entry among the 46 comments. Maybe this has something to do with East coast/West coast time zones? Seems unlikely, but there is that...
