She was allegedly found unconscious by her husband and brought to the hospital.

Her husband sued for and received a multi-million dollar settlement for her long term care. I believe the claim was injury from a medication she was taking.

Within a few years, he had hooked up with another gal, had kids with her, and then suddenly recalled she didn’t want to live this way (after pocketing the money, of course).

He had the courts kill her.

Whole thing stank to high heaven.

Even her Bishop would not go to see her. He did nothing to help her or her family in any way.

Jeb and his brother did nothing and they could have.

I lived day after day on these Terri threads.

I just thought about these things a couple of days ago, and I came to the conclusion that President Trump would have done something to save her.

What really bothered me was the way they killed her.
I would not kill any animal that way.

+++++++++++

This culture of ours is really sick. I 100% agree that doing this to an animal would be unthinkable. You would do the humane thing of course and relieve the pet from further suffering. Letting a human being suffer and die this way? Incomprehensible, but with the left, just another day advancing their ghoulish agenda. Certainly one of the crimes committed here. One man’s opinion.

Was this was when Jeb Bush fiddled away his previous sympathy for Terri?

Just as we no longer need a look at Jeb, his legacy endures.

Jeb allowed Judge Greer to commandeer the police to prevent anything that would save Terri, or give her comfort, in any way. He let a Civil Court judge usurp the control of the executive over the Executive Branch. Jeb and W both were COWARDS.

If I found a family member who was unconscious I would call 911. They would get to the house sooner than I could carry someone to a vehicle and drive to the hospital, and perhaps give some form of life support. They are much more knowledgeable than I. Maybe he didn’t want anyone to see some evidence of abuse?

Or at least Trump would let her die with dignity, relieve her pain, put her on IV and nutrients. Letting her die of starvation and dehydration is immoral and inhumane. Murders imho.

While she lay there dying of dehydration, it was reported that the husband placed fresh flowers with water in a vase on her window sill, just out of her reach, which she had to look at as she died of thirst.

The evil!

This culture of ours...

There are those who project that it's "ours". It's theirs and only ours if we accept it.

Why do I get the sense that “Bioethics” dehumanizes people?

Yes, the cold hearted jerk husband wanted her dead because he had a financial interest in her death and a girl friend. Jeb Bush was a chicken heart and would not rescue her. Sorry, but as a family lawyer, I know that parents are more in tune with a person than their spouse.

If Jeb Bush had stepped up he would’ve become president because he would have stood for something other than tippy toes.

So it’s not just religious conservatives who make the connection. Good to know.

I will never forget that case as long as I live. It still makes me sick to my stomach to think about it 20 years later.

In fact Terri Schiavo’s death affected me so much that four years ago when my 98 year old Mom was in her last days in a critical care hospice situation I made them put an IV in her arm because I told them I didn’t want her to die of dehydration like Terri Schiavo. A very empathetic Physician’s Assistant told me that my Mom was a different situation because she was actually dying and her body was shutting down and she wasn’t suffering so I let them take it out.

JEB BUSH! You will burn in hell for not saving Terri when you could have.

Terri Schiavo was MURDERED by her husband and then again by the courts.

The judge in this case (Judge George Greer) will burn in hell as well!

He’s 83, won’t be long now George.

From what I read at the time, in FL law, if a husband had done something like getting involved with another woman, he would not be allowed to be the person responsible for decision-making.

The bishops did nothing; Jeb Bush, a Catholic since 1995, did nothing, the courts did not do what they ought to have done.

Moreover, William Buckley, also Catholic, wrote a horrific article which exposed his complete ignorance of all aspects of the situation, including the Catholic moral theology which would apply.

An absolutely abysmal event.
