*Michael, HAVE A HEART !!!!!For Valentines Day give Terri back to her MOM & DAD, The Schindlers!!!!!!!!*
The Terri Schindler Schiavo Daily Threads are created month to month as we watch local and national news regarding Terri and her family.
Since Terri's supporters are in every time zone, you may see something FIRST. Please share news with us that you don't see here already. Now, why would you want to do that? Terri's Daily Thread for September/October of 2004 was viewed over 15,000 times. Terri's November Daily Thread was viewed over 6,000 times. December's thread is over 3,000 views. January 2005 Daily Thread was a RECORD HIGH!!!!!!! 15, 103 VIEWS!!!!!!
More and more good folks are finding out about Terri and that judicial tyranny would take her life, but for lots and lots of prayer and non-stop lobbying of relatives, friends, clergy, our leaders, the media, a passerby, a cashier - ANYONE who you feel comfortable chatting with.
Folks always want to know how can this be in America or on earth for that matter? Unfortunately, this is really happening to an innocent woman who just celebrated her 41st birthday. She's not the only one but she's the one with devoted parents and siblings who knows what's in Terri's heart. Terri has a strong will to live. That's apparent. It's been 14 years.
Besides, feeding tubes have been around practically since the Civil War. They are not high tech devices. Terri is "not hooked up to machines". Her feeding tube is the diameter of a piece of spaghetti.
Talkin' about Terri is the best way to lobby for her. It is a salespitch to save her life and subsequently, many lives. If you've never sold anything in your life, START NOW. START WITH TERRI.
See Terri's flash movies if you need more information. You can see for yourself that's she's interactive and follows the doctor's instructions.

NOTE: Terri's December Dailies are noted as a source above. There are lots of important links at the very top of that thread. If you missed Terri's Celebration of Life, you can click on it from there.
AGAIN WE HAVE A NEW RECORD: 15,103 views on the tote board for the Terri Schindler Schiavo January Daily Thread!
The most significant event in Terri's case in January, was the Supreme's Courts refusal to hear Governor Jeb Bush's appeal, after the Florida State Legislature struck down Terri's Law. This once again places Terri's life in extreme jeopardy, though there are other issues regarding her case before the court.
Thank you. We pray along with you!
I'm with you there!
Goodnight Terri prayer!
Dear Governor Bush,
Please give Terri protective custody from those who want her dead. She is NOT in a vegitative state - in a coma - or on life support. Her feeding tube was inserted as a matter of convenience to save on cost for her care.
God help you to make the right decision that is in your power to make. If this were your child - you would make that decision.
What harm is there for Terri to live? She has suffered from lack of therapy and common decency. We would not allow a dog to be treated like Terri has been treated.
My heart is breaking over what is happening in our state. Please correct this horrible situation. We are all praying that you will stand up to the task.
I voted for you and would appreciate a reply to my email.
Sincerely,
I signed my name and address
Ditto. And that stumbling block would be Bishop Lynch of The St. Petersburg (Terri's) Diocese. The following is still on their website from when Terri was being dehydrated, and denied Holy Communion:
October 21st, 2003
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contacts:
Mary Jo Murphy, 727-344-1611 ext 368
STATEMENT OF THE DIOCESE OF ST. PETERSBURG CONCERNING THE SPIRITUAL WELFARE OF TERRI SCHIAVO
Bishop Robert Lynch and the Catholic Diocese of St. Petersburg are grateful for the outpouring of love and compassion expressed to us for Terri Schiavo. (Oh, to be sure!) We share the agony (I'm certain it hurts Bishop Lynch much more than it does Terri!) being felt all over the world on Terris behalf.
Terris spiritual well being continues to be of paramount importance to Bishop Lynch (Yeah, right.) and all those serving within the Diocese. The spiritual ministry to any person is a private matter (And how!). The Diocese has been involved in helping to provide for Terris spiritual needs (Uh huh.). We assure all persons who care for Terri that the spiritual needs of her Catholic faith are being met (Oh, but OF COURSE!) . We ask that such private ministry be respected (Oh, we MUST! And we must respect the privacy of Jody Centonze and Michael Schiavo [aka "the HINO"] and their engagement, and that Bishop Lynch will probably consecrate their marriage as soon as Terri will only cooperate and DIE already! Then will come the time of healing, yada yada.)
We all pray that the Lord will abundantly bless and protect Terri Schiavo (From what? Death??? With her tube pulled??? Are you KIDDING ME???) and her family in their time of need (for a REAL Catholic Bishop).

Terri phone number/e-mail/sign petition bump!
On POSSIBLY as early as Tuesday, February 22, 2005, the Courts might have Terri's feeding tube removed for the THIRD time.
For any "newbees" to this thread, here are the numbers to call. Ask them to save Terri Schiavo by NOT allowing her to starve to death.
If you don't have time to call all of the numbers, please at least call one number (or e-mail). Calling is better than sending an e-mail, but please at least do something.

From a post from Floriduh Voter about A.G. Charlie Crist: FLA AG Crist's staff said to a caller "Crist it the attorney for the STATE, not for individuals." Well, THEN HE BETTER QUIT HELPING THE PARAPLEGIC WHO GOT KICKED OFF A US AIRWAYS FLIGHT. Either you are working for the people or the state and the Fla AG HAS A CIVIL RIGHTS DEPT.
Sun says: It looks like A.G. Charlie Crist is playing politics by choosing which disabled person he wants to help, & which he does not. I guess he thinks that helping a paraplegic is more popular with Florida VOTERS.
ALSO, you can:
PLEASE SIGN PETITION FOR TERRI
Without 11th-hour help Terri Schindler-Schiavo will soon be
starved to death. Husband Michael Schiavo -- thanks to yet
another outrage by an activist judge -- again has a death
sentence from the Florida courts to execute this courageous woman by removing her feeding tube.
Your quick help is needed! Please go to ConservativePetitions.com to see what is at stake not only for Terri but for all Americans.
Here's the address:

Bump.
To All:
Please see Post #2,024.

Great website. I think I will e-mail them and tell them Terri Schiavo's rights have been violated, and her bishop won't even help her.
Please check and use link from Post #2,208, not my link. My link does not work, because I added quote sign.
You have some great ideas! I wonder if Mary Jo Murphy still works there.
Well, who cares if she works there or not! LOL! It'll get a lot of attention if a whole bunch of people call for Mary Jo Murphy!!!
Referring to Post #2,208.
I sent this message, but forgot to give them the link to this thread. Anyway here's my message:
Terri Schiavo's (terrisfight.org) rights have been violated, because she is not allowed to receive Holy Communion and she CAN swallow.
Her husband and the courts want to remove her feeding tube on as early as Tues., Feb. 22, 2005, and suicide is against her Catholic religion.
I am reading from posters on FreeRepublic.com that her diocese bishop, Bishop Lynch will not help her, and does not want others to help her.
Here's just one post: 'A priest told a friend of mine that Bishop Robert Lynch warned the priests in the diocese not to discuss Terri's case. The few priests who have defended Terri's right to life were ostracized by Lynch and other priests. Another friend of mine was scheduled to give a talk on a respect life topic in Gainesville, Florida. He found out today that he cannot mention Terri's name in his talk because the subject was banned from all dioceses in the State of Florida.' Would you please look into this? It just might save Terri's life. Thank you and God bless you,
Anybody got a mailing/street address for Greer?
Did that, thank you for giving me the opportunity. Also one at petitionsonline.com
