TERRI'S FIGHT
(Thread 6 - November 8-10, 2003)
(Link back to thread 5 - Nov. 5-7)

.

Contained in Thread 4:

Link to article on Michael Schiavo from hometown newspaper, information on death by starvation and dehydration, information on hospice eligibility and hospice and medicare/medicaid fraud, e-mail address for Judge Greer, transcript of Larry King Live interview with Michael Schiavo and George Felos, Terri's address at the hospice and the address for the foundation, to send cards for Terri's birthday (December 3), transcript of O'Reilly interview with Kate Adamson, e-mail addresses for Florida legislature, transcript of Abrams Report interview with George Felos and Pam Anderson, transcription of Terri's bone scan, legalese for dummies version of Gov. Bush's motion to dismiss Sciavo's suit against the Constitutionality of Terri's Law, link to FatherOfLiberty's research on HBOT (Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy), links to ACLJ involvement in Schiavo case and Father Rob Johansen's daily update.

There are four other relevant posts that I want to highlight here in case anyone missed them or didn't get pinged. These are a general Terri thread troll alert, an especially thoughtful post about the sincere effort that FReepers are making in Terri's behalf, the Father's Love Letter , and remarks made by Jim Robinson on this issue and reposted here by lonevoice.

This thread serves as a place for posting all new general information and references, along with links following Terri's case, plus information on cable news and talk radio shows dealing with the issue, court cases and press releases. This is also the place to post contact information, prayers and general discussion.

If you have something that qualifies as BREAKING NEWS or FRONT PAGE NEWS, please post it on a separate thread in that category in order to give it maximum exposure and then post a link to the article/thread here so that it will be included in the next update of links. Also, if you post links to articles from original sources and there is also a thread on FR, please link to the FR thread. Many original links become corrupt over time and we want to be able to access the information at will.

There was a tremendous amount of information posted on the previous thread. For anyone who hasn't been following the daily threads, links to relevant posts and information from the previous thread are contained in the body of the present one. I have found that very helpful in trying to find something later. You people are doing a spectacular job of getting information out and also in helping to keep all of us updated here. What a great joint effort. This fight, to me, illustrates beautifully what Free Republic is about and what it means to be a FReeper. Way to go FRiends. Keep up the good work!

I've heard that American women could not take a trip to Italy or France without being pinched at least once on the backside. The steriotype is generally true.

I would be willing to bet that that info was copy and pasted from terrisfight.org. I have seen something just like that on there at one time. I don't know if it's still there, now that it has a new format. We can check, but it looks almost identical to something I read on there a couple of months ago.

The author of CS&T's article is Susan Brinkmann.

This week she interviews Terri's father, who gived a detailed report about the night Terri was found on the floor clutching her neck.
He also states that MS was seeing a psychiatrist, named Dr. Caplan.......first time I heard about this.

Could you post this story? Thanks.

Wouldn't the promissory note mean Michael owes Terri? i.e., the trust fund lent him money, and the note represents his promise to pay?

Sure, but he hasn't been held accountable for years....

Terri Schiavo Likeness and Image

Some new small pictures (adorable) and a string of pro-life editorials in support of Terri.

Of particular interest to catholics would be the comments about the clergy who have spoken one way or another about the case.

Here's more info:

He grew up in Levittown, Pa., in suburban Philadelphia, the son of Bill and Clara Schiavo. His father worked a steady white-collar job as a safety engineer for AT&T. His mother was a stay-at-home mom who could make meatloaf 100 different ways. Bill Schiavo Jr., Michael Schiavo's 49-year-old brother, said the family was Lutheran and regularly attended Sunday services. The boys lived as their parents taught them: to believe in God, but to keep their deepest feelings and emotional pain to themselves

Doing some looking and found this article, much info is the same we have had but there is a tidbit about Terri's funding at the Hospice that I haven't seen thus far.

Both sides in Schiavo fight point to control of money
A fund set up for his wife's care is down to $50,000, Michael Schiavo said on CNN.
By Chris Gray
Inquirer Staff Writer

PINELLAS PARK, Fla. - Both Michael Schiavo and his in-laws, Bob and Mary Schindler, say the fight over Terri Schiavo revolves around the control of money.

In 1993, Michael Schiavo received approximately $1.1 million in a medical malpractice suit after doctors were found negligent for failing to diagnose a chemical imbalance in Terri Schiavo, his wife. The bulk of the award, $750,000, was set aside for Terri Schiavo's care, to be administrated by her husband as her guardian.

On Monday, Michael Schiavo told television interviewer Larry King that only $50,000 of the fund remained and that the Schindlers waged their war against his guardianship after he refused to give them part of the settlement.

Bob Schindler has "always wanted the money," Schiavo said. "He wants the money. He wants the control."

Schiavo said later in the broadcast that he "will not receive a penny from this."

Terri Schiavo, 39, formerly of Huntingdon Valley in Montgomery County, has been in a persistent vegetative state since 1990.After her heart stopped, her brain was deprived of oxygen for five to six minutes. Though she can breathe on her own and is not in a coma, a court-appointed doctor has testified her severe brain damage cannot be reversed.

The battle over Michael Schiavo's attempt to remove a tube that supplies liquid and nourishment to his wife has been waged in the courts for six years. Schiavo says he was heeding his wife's spoken desire not to be kept alive by artificial means. Her parents, meanwhile, have fought to keep her alive, saying there is still hope for her recovery.

Yesterday, lawyers for the Schindlers released a spreadsheet purporting to show that right-to-die lawyer George Felos, who has represented Michael Schiavo for six years, has received nearly $400,000 from Terri Schiavo's guardianship fund. Two other lawyers, Deborah Bushnell and Gyneth Stanley, have received $65,607 and $10,668, respectively.

Felos, who appeared with Michael Schiavo on television, was unavailable for comment yesterday.

Hospice Woodside, where Terri Schiavo has stayed since 2000, has not received payment for her care "in a substantial amount of time," said John W. Campbell, an attorney for its parent company, Hospice of the Florida Suncoast.

Campbell said he did not know when the payments stopped or how much the outstanding bills were. Last week, Felos and Bushnell told reporters that Terri Schiavo receives Social Security benefits and Medicaid for some basic care costs. A fund for indigent patients run by the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast paid for up to $5,000 a month of hospice care, they said.

Hospice Woodside is receiving no Medicare or Medicaid money for Terri Schiavo, Campbell said.

"No one's tax dollars are paying for hospice care," he said. He said that Felos has told him that the estate owes numerous parties more than $100,000.

Lawyer Pat Anderson said yesterday her client, Bob Schindler, had exhausted most of his retirement savings trying to keep his daughter alive. "Bob is insolvent," she said. His wife, Mary, works full time in a card store near the beach.

Anderson has received about $100,000 from the Alliance Defense Fund, a conservative Christian legal organization based in Arizona that fights abortion and homosexuality and promotes religion in public institutions. James Dobson, of Focus on the Family, is one of the founders.

Neither Bob or Mary Schindler watched the CNN program where Michael Schiavo said right-wing activists were behind their crusade to keep Terri alive. Bob Schindler Jr., Terri's brother, also did not watch it, but he said heard most of it on the radio.

He said family members were particularly upset that Michael Schiavo said that his fiancée, with whom he has a child and is expecting another, "has done more for Terri than her own mother did."

"It's certainly not true," Bob Schindler Jr. said."What do you do when he says outrageous comments like that?"

Michael Schiavo vowed on the program to keep fighting, and legal briefs against Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's executive order to restore Terri Schiavo's feeding tube are due tomorrow. Bush took action after the Florida legislature passed a law last week that allowed him to intervene. Yesterday, President Bush said that he approved of his brother's actions.

"I believe my brother made the right decision," Bush said in response to a reporter's question at a wide-ranging news conference.

"In a study published in the June 1991 Archives of Neurology, it was found that of 84 patients with a firm diagnosis of PVS, 58 percent recovered consciousness within three years."
