While we all wait to see how the Terri Schiavo case plays out and if the state is allowed to pronounce a death sentence on this poor woman, I thought I would take this opportunity to make a public statement. I'm assuming and hoping this declaration will serve as a "Living Will" since I'm too cheap to get a lawyer and notary publics are annoying.
Here goes...I, The Beloved Deb, being of sound (cough) mind and gorgeous body, do declare that in the event of some unforeseen tragedy that leaves me in a vegetative, near vegetative, semi-vegetative, comatose or overly drowsy state, that no one is given permission to remove any life-sustaining tube, pump or drip from me.
In addition, everything possible means to keep me alive and breathing, whether on my own or by machine should be mobilized.
I want all my friends and family to visit regularly and say loudly how much they love me. I want someone to do my make-up and put hats on me. Also, bring me presents. And it would be nice if Godiva chocolates and In-N-Out cheeseburgers (with onions) could be routinely run thru my breathing tube.
I want to be dressed up every Friday night and taken to dinner at Le Dome.
I expect to look really cute at all times and would appreciate it if someone would load my iPod.
Now, no one can say, I would rather die than live in a suspended state of nothingness. It ain't true. I'm stickin' and if any Democrat attempts to put me out of my "misery", I want them sued, jailed and publicly denounced.
Thanks in advance, The Beloved Deb
Surely you have heard of the FRee Republic photo rule? Such a post must be accompanied by photos.
Just for verification, no prurient interest here. :)
A most excellent post....
But please, run the chocalate and cheeseburgers through the FEEDING tube, not the BREATHING tube...
The stomach digests food better than the lungs.
OK. That I can accept. I'm sorry for losing my temper with you; it was very wrong of me to do so.
My agenda? I don't have an agenda. Every court, every judge, every time has ruled this. Not me. Geez.
Apology accepted.
Listen, let's leave this thread. I asked my #24 post to be deleted because this isn't the thread to rehash this again and get all nasty again. This is Deb's thread and I'm going to leave it for the tone she meant it to be. I'm sure I'll see you again at some other thread. :)
Greer is the only judge who has ruled on this case.
That is why many are screaming about and are calling this exact case Judaical activism at the bench.
Surely you are so well read on this topic that you know there is a HUGE struggle in this county over this topic right now.
It is RIGHT HERE Hildy and everyone is watching what is going to happen. Surely being as up on this story as you must be, you have not missed the side issue which could practically stop a train.
I do not think this is funny...and I don't think you're cute.
A woman is starving/dehydrating to death.

Pssssssst... Here's two more non-swear words to add to your arsenal for future use:
EACH IT !!!
BTW, I noticed your quote on your home page by Harry Truman...is that accurate?
I have never seen that one before.
And anyone who knows me knows I inhale Godiva and In-N-Outs, but thanks for noticing.
