Yep. You got that straight. You also pointed out that whoever has POA can sign hospice papers, but there is a difference between complete POA, financial POA, and healthcare POA. I'm not positive, but I think it was reported here that Mae's granddaughter originally only had financial POA.

Sounds like we need someone in the area to do some legwork and see which story is tru and see if Mae is in the hospital or a hospice. That would help for starters.

Yes she ORRIGIONALLY only had a financial POA, but when the relatives called the hospice and found out she was being staved to death the hospice checked and found out this infomation and that the patient had a living will directly contradicting the grandaughters orders, thay then called the grandaughter, told her the info and stalled the relatives untill the grandaughter could get a temporary guardianship after which the grandaughter ordered the starvaton of her gradmother.

Got e-mail back from Denny Schaffer, host who was referenced in an above post, speaking about Mae. I asked Denny if he could post information about her on his site, he sent back:'no information-nothing we could track down to prove it was authentic.'

Would that be unexpected after no food or water with morphine and ativan?

Well, they aren't giving out info anymore.

See posts 946 through 949 for contact info please. Note that the Med Center and Hospice are intertwined.

Well exactly, I bet if I deprived you of food and water for a couple of weeks you might in fact be unconscious or terminal, hence the need for a hospice (read death camp).

Glennbeck.com has this link up to a story in the local paper.

Woman, 81, at center of feeding tube feud
http://lagrangenews.com/new.php?StoryType=full

It may be what the other host (Denny Schaeffer??) was referring to. I don't see where registration is required.

Now they are being scrutinised and I expect disinformation such as what the Toledo talk show host was told.

Thanks. I did pick that up from the threads...so now it's a matter of discovering why her doctor said she had no chance of recovery from problems with a dissected aorta? Her age maybe? Because others have had the same problem and are living to tell about it.

He apparently did not need that info, apparently all that is needed is the guardians request.

Okay, that confirms that part. We aren't getting much more info than that though, are we? I mean, the hospice isn't giving out much 'over the phone', are they?

No they have closed down all their lines of info and simply forward you to voicemail.

OKAY!

Let's get this aired out NOW!

I talked with that Judge.

He told me it was all out of his hands- and up to the doctors per the hearing on MONDAY!

Did YOu all READ the latest Email sent by Kenneth?

I spent ALL day calling people.

Including the attorney for Kenneth- etc. The Judge was the only one I got to talk to in person- other than the lady at hospice. (She doesn't like me) I asked her a hard question and she accused me of being rude.

LOL!

Okay-

I asked her- "Is it policy at your Hospice to consider the next of kin to be a grandaughter over a brother or sister?"

She said "Go look at the court records."

I said, "Let's forget this specific case. I am asking you about your policy."

She said, "You are being rude and yelling at me."

I said, "No, I am asking you about your policy." (keep in mind-- NO ONE IS YELLING! NOT HER- OR I!)

Again, she said "Go look at the court records."

THIS IS NOT SOMEONE TRYING TO GET THE TRUTH OUT! THEY ARE HIDING SOMETHING!

The In-House Attorney- that noticed the mistake that the Hospice made is suddenly "gone for the week."

Mae was put into ICU- then the grandaughter denied her a feeding tube and hydration and THEN had her moved to a Hospice to die.

Get it?

Mae didn't need a feeding tube until she had compications with the surgery and was put in ICU.

Many people need a feeding tube TEMPORARILY!

Especially when they are all drugged up and unable to eat!

THIS is how I understand the facts to be.

This per MY conversation with Kenneth, and the inteview with Glenn Beck-- etc....

If you feel like you do not have enough facts- and don't want to help-- no problem. If you disagree with the way I am interpreting this info- No problem.

BUT I will work to save Miss Mae as long as I can- or until her family tells me to stop.

If her family is asking my help to save her-- THAT IS WHAT I AM GOING TO DO!

That's ME!

Can we make a list of contacts to air this over the weekend, please? This word will die on network media in the rotations. We also need boots on the ground there if possible.

Regular offices are now closed on the Eastern seaboard. Talk radio has to pick this up fast, as do newspapers.

Please see posts 946 through eevil's list and repost at 949.

Beck, Hannity's caller, Katz in SF, and Toledo have air time. Blogs have it. WND and the local paper has it.

The Schindlers have picked it up, along with Gibbs. Is there word there?

Do all Congressmen & Senators have it? W? Interested clergy?

Can we dig re viaticals in the line of what Calpuria was doing last night late, hospice/hospital financing, guardianship issues and probate judges?

Volunteers?
