Hands-on healer won't touch Schiavo 

In my original post about faith-healer Dr. Nemeh, I was tempted to include a wisecrack to the extent that a visit to Terri Schiavo may be apropos. I thought it in bad taste. Now we have this, which makes the same case much more strongly than a taunt,

With options running out, the family turned to a local doctor who treats disease with prayer.

NewsChannel5's Ted Henry was the first to report that Terri Schiavo's parents -- Mary and Bob Schindler -- contacted Cleveland's faith healer, Dr. Issam Nemeh.

They offered to pay all of his expenses to come to Florida and perform his faith healing service for their daughter.

Dr. Nemeh's wife said he will not go to Florida because of previous commitments.
