I don't have a problem with FR or JimRob's rules. You seem to only want to enforce whatever rules you feel like. Do you really think the mods are so blind that they didn't see the threads with secession (2005) in the title!? LMAO

How do think the secession threads will play?

Danny Daniel of LaGrange, the attorney for Gaddy and another grandchild

"We haven't heard from Gaddys sibling."

Or first cousin of Gaddy, as well.

There is no secession 2005 thread.

The only threads with secession in the title are ones where that was the title given by the author of the news article there in posted.

If you are taking about the Confederate States of America 2005 thread it is a movie title.

Like I said, take it up with JimRob.

Miss Mae had one son and he's deceased. So her son must have had 2 kids.

I think I'm getting tired of thinking. Was doing some legal research. Here is a 1997 discussion of a similar case. Looks like guardianship trumps all. Don't know the outcome of this old 1997 case, though.

Believe me, I understand the urgency. I stayed up much of last night working on this so the information would hit the desks of people first thing this morning.

I was simply posting that as an encouragement to all who are working hard that people are noticing and hopefully those in a position to do something will realize that and act accordingly.

"another grandchild"

I did miss that. But I'm so tired right now, if a pigeon parked itself on my desk, I probably wouldn't notice:)

Mullinax and the patient’s brother and sister – Lonnie Ruth Mullinax of Birmingham and A.B. McLeod of Anniston, Ala. – came here last Friday to arrange for a feeding tube and take her to the Birmingham hospital.

“She (Gaddy) said, ‘I think it’s time she (her grandmother) goes home to Jesus, that’s she’s too sick and would not have a good quality of life,” Kenneth Mullinax said.

His complaints have been posted on Internet Web logs that have been in overdrive since the Terri Schiavo case. “All of the Terri Schiavo people have come to our rescue,” Mullinax said. “This thing’s going national.” On Thursday, the Probate Office, West Georgia Health System and attorneys in the case were inundated with phone calls and e-mails.

“We need people surrounding that place (hospice), we need some activity,” one caller from Oregon told the Daily News, adding that she had called the governor’s office and attorneys in the case.

The probate office got an estimated 50 calls from people saying things like, “I understand y’all are murdering people in Troup County” and “You’re euthanizing people.” “We’re taking the posture of refusing to deal with those people because they’re not representing the responsible parties,” said West Georgia Health System President Jerry Fulks.

The above is from the lagrange article. Looks like a fight over the money. If the others are from out of town, how much care did they give Mae?

Yep, George Soros is using his money to promote DEATH

"While I'm no George Soros fan especially after the recent election campaign, and it's true that Soros funds causes in which I vehemently disagree including drugs, gay marriage and abortion. However, your reference to the PDIA was anything but complete. Here is what his organization states as the goal:

Now, I would assume most here would applaud anything that tended to improve care for dying patients. Perhaps you are aware of the $45 million being spent to kill rather than extend care?

http://www.soros.org/initiatives/pdia/about"

I'm confused about the point you are making in your post, and don't even remember my entire post, as I post to many. Sorry

Why should that post be pulled? It raises a fair question: Just what does a an aging judge do to make sure he's not faced with the same outcome? Ask yourself, how might Greer answer that one? Would he agree to starvation and dehydration if he had the choice? What might he do to avoid it? Has he made a Living Will??? (Knowing full well such a document wouldn't save him?)

I agree with you. I didn't see any perceived threat. Your post raises a good point. What would or should a judge do if they become legally blind? Should they resign?

I have yet to hear anything from David Boies. I think sinkspur and maybe some others also tried to reach him.

No problem. Glad to refresh. You were posting some information claiming that George Soros' PDIA group was a group promoting Death. In fact, it was a group that gave out $45 million to fund better care for patients in hospices. That would seem to be completely different from what has been alleged here on FR for several weeks. I will give credit where credit is due, and in this case, Soros has actually done some good.

"What would or should a judge do if they become legally blind?"

Or suffer from dementia? a NATURAL result of the aging process, due to restricted bloodflow to the brain. That's why we have a retirement age. Time to rest, take it easy, enjoy hobbies, not make life ending decisions for others.

Lifetime appointments are what DICTATORS demand.

MAC, Calpernia and Fedora have done quite a bit of research on Soros, and his funding of PDIA. From the many posts I have read, Soros doesn't have any good intent with what he spends his money on, regardless of the "good" appearances it may have.

Now, in this case, it sounds like this woman has a written document to "decide her own end care" and it isn't being followed. In that regard, I think this case may end up being more significant than Terri Schiavo's.

Exactly why I am trying to help out the fight, should the facts check out.
