St. Petersburg, FL -- Terri Schiavo's mother Mary Schindler has uncovered a note that Terri wrote back in 1984 when she married her husband Michael. Now remarried to someone with whom he had an affair before Terri's death, Michael won a court order to take her live despite pleas from her family.
Terri's brother Bobby Schindler tells LifeNews.com about the note.

All the more tragic. Her parents and supporters did all we could do. We miss Terri.
Her “husband” committed the perfect murder and got away with it. The best murder is the one you don’t have to do yourself.
So sad
I wish I could have done something to save her life. But the forces of evil were hell bent on killing her and God let it happen. I believe Terri is in Heaven now. God does let evil happen to good people, I don’t know why, but it is nothing compared to eternal joy of living with him.
“won a court order to take her live “
Her “live?”
Her so-called husband got the government to be an accessory in his murder of his wife.
So tragic.

So tragic.
The Left’s motto: Kill the innocent and free the murderers.
The evil left has no problem with murdering those who have no voice of their own while it weeps for murderers like Tookie Williams.
Amazingly the note DOES NOT express any desire to be murdered in the cruelest manner imaginable.
Right! and to think 38,865,604 identify themselves as nonreligious/secularist in the U.S. had more power than the 224,437,959 that identify themselves as Christians.
I believe if Terri was a homosexual or a black she’d be still with us today.
Sad that so many people are so powerless to protect it’s
own(ò¿ó)
she was alive before they killed her
oops, misread the typo, sorry
I’m always surprised when I see mistakes like that in a newspaper. I mean, they do have people to read the copy, don’t they?
There are still some around (I could probably come up with a list of names); however, many of those who wanted Terri murdered were NEVER conservatives in the first place and met their demise on the Bug Zapper thread.
Life News is mainly run as a labor of love by the editor, Steven Ertelt, with minimal staff. His is one of the two or three, if not the best pro-life news sources on the internet. But, like anything else, there are mistakes that slip through the cracks.
Simple.
So they can be like his son, Jesus Christ. For eternity.
What if Terry really DID tell Michael she wanted him to ensure she did not exist in that state?
My wife and I updated our wills last week and we now (finally) have our living wills in place. I have let my wife know, in no uncertain terms, that a "Schiavo-like" non-responsive state requiring IV feeding will be the end for me. Both she and I will allow doctors (more than one) do what they can for 1 month. That's it.
I've also informed my parents of our decision. I pray the courts stay out of my death if it comes to that.
My death will be traumatic enough for the family, I don't want my life immediately preceding my death to also be a continuous financial burden. I didn't work my whole life to provide for my family just to become a burden at the end.
No offense to the Freepers who advocated the state interfering with the Schiavo case as I agree it wasn't so straight forward, but . . . hopefully I've ensured that no one, regardless of their intent, can stop my wife from 'pulling the plug' on me when the time comes.
The sad truth is that Terri was murdered (starved and dehydrated to death) by her estranged and unfaithful “husband” with complicity by our federal and state court system. May she rest in the peace of God’s love and may her parents and siblings be comforted in Mary’s embrace.
You can bring up 10,000 "what if" posits and/or arguments and it will solve nothing in terms of this tragic, indeed horrible case. The testimony and facts show it wasn't about "financial burdens" or anything but Michael Schiavo's selfish desire to have Terri dead so he could go on living with his new common law wife and kids. The facts suggest no "what ifs" but Michael's corrupt moral code coupled with a complicit legal system that assisted him in achieving his goal.
Terri Schiavo PING.
In the note Terri wrote that she shared her parents’ values.
Unfortunately, Judge Greer. www.judgegeorgegreer.com would have said the note was irrelevant or written when she was too young to express herself. He’s an evil creep.
Terri’s note halfway down. http://www.LifeNews.com/bio2440.html
Terri spent $80 at the beauty salon. That was pretty much how this started. She was planning to divorce him and he likely sensed it. Their marriage was probably nothing like yours.
And we also need to be REALLY CLEAR on exactly how Terri was a “financial burden” to her estranged, adulterous “husband.”
Terri was awarded a lot of money for her rehabilitation. This money was NEVER used for her rehabilitation, it was spent on lawyers to kill Terri. Thus, the ONLY way Terri could be construed as a “financial burden” is through the twisted and evil notion that if she lived, her estranged and adulterous “husband” wouldn’t get her money. It is also worth noting that Terri’s estranged, adulterous “husband” was awarded a large sum of money for “loss of consortium” which is incredibly ironic when you consider that he abandoned Terri for another woman and has children with her. And finally, we need to realize that the Schindlers offered to let Terri’s estranged, adulterous “husband” keep all of the money if he would simply divorce Terri and let them become her guardians.
Saying that Terri was a “financial burden” to her estranged, adulterous “husband” would be the same as saying that Jesus Christ was a “financial burden” to Judas.
A clarification for those who didn't read my post and if I didn't word it correctly . . .
My reference to a "financial burden" was in the context of MY potential situation. I didn't say Terri was a "financial burden" to Michael so please avoid the leftist tactic of false accusations/attributions.
As for it being "better to err on the side of life" - that's the reason for my post: I WANT NO ONE TO "ERR" - my wishes are now legal and my wife has the power to ensure they are implemented (and vice-versa). Sorry some of you missed the whole point and I hope you do as I did and get your wishes on paper asap.
Also, my "what if" posits and/or arguments had nothing to with an attempt to "solve" this case. This issue has been solved - though obviously not to our satisfaction.
One last point to ponder . . . does or should adultery nullify the legal rights of a spouse if the marriage is still intact? If so, what about adultery in the mind and heart as the Bible indicates? I'm not about to make that claim and I hope you won't make that leap either.
Not only did Terri have NO WRITTEN WISHES, her estranged, adulterous husband did not claim that she had ever said anything until AFTER he had the money. And his siblings conveniently "recalled" Terri saying this at the same time.

Let's look at it this way (and this is the scenario that ACTUALLY HAPPENED with Terri):
Let's say that you are hospitalized and even though you have no written instructions your spouse claims that you want to be starved and dehydrated. And the spouse claims that starvation and dehydration is "beautiful and euphoric" as evidenced by the picture below.

Now, let's say that you get a routine urinary tract infection and your spouse decides that denying you antibiotics might kill you quicker. However, when you don't die, your spouse starts saying things like, "When is this bitch/bastard going to die?"
And then let's say that your spouse has become engaged to be married to another person and has also had two children with them. And your spouse also knows that the only thing standing in the way of the marriage is the fact that you are still married. Your spouse then has ONLY TWO OPTIONS:
1. They can divorce you, but in so doing they will have to forfeit your money (which is a considerable amount).
or
2. They can find a way to kill you and keep your money.
Knowing all of this, would you really want this spouse deciding if you should live or die?
I agree, the image is upsetting to children; however, what it shows should be UNACCEPTABLE to ALL of us. If the culture of death is going to continue with their claims that murder by dehydration and starvation is so wonderful, then they need to be prepared to show the world what the outcome looks like.
Absolutely.
Please post a before picture of Lisa MacPherson. Before the cockroach bites, the sleep deprivation, the isolation, the dehydration and starvation at the Ft. Harrison Hotel (also known as Scientology HQs)Clearwater, Fl.
I don’t have a picture of Lisa before she was murdered, maybe 8mm does.

Lisa MacPherson was a pretty girl who was in a car accident in Clearwater and was in shock. Instead of going to the ER, the sci-fis took her bk to the hotel so they could neglect her. It reminds me of one of Jeffrey Dahmer’s victims who ran toward the police. Dahmer told the police it was just a lover’s spat so the police didn’t help the child. He became Jeffrey Dahmer’s supper.
Um... I seem to be the only NON-FEMALE you pinged!
Remind me to NEVER get so much as a headache in Clearwater!

Lisa told friends she was going to leave scientology. Gee, maybe Terri told Michael Schiavo she wanted a divorce. Lisa was the first that we know of in Pinellas County and Terri was the second. Neither deserved what they got.

Well, if you have sisters, you can wish them a Happy Sister’s Week! duh.
LOL!
I am honored to be included with this group of fine ladies. Even if one of them isn’t really a lady at all. He has other qualities.
If you think I’m gonna ever call YOU a girl, you’re going to be waiting a long time.
That’s no lady, that’s wagglbee!
I still owe Wagglebee a cheese cake, but I think he should have to finish his omelet first. No desert until he cleans his plate. (Calico omelets are good for you.)
Well, I think you owe 8mm an apology because you EXCLUDED HIM!
