Spring break is definitely a possibility. Also, it has been my experience that it is hard to get ahold of people in D.C. on Friday....they seem to think Fridays are a holiday up there, anyway, I will try calling DC on my lunch hour, which is in about 30 minutes.
OKAY DONE WITH SHOWER
Focus on the Family just called me- lloking for Ken--LOL!
I was literally talking to them IN THE SHOWER!
But- Focus on the Family is on the task-- supposed to be having an interview with Ken---
Ken may be at the Hospital with his mother!
GOD give us the wisdom to do what is effective.
Lord send your angels out before us to set the path for your righteous victory.. ARM US WELL
In the name of Your Son, and Our Savior, AMEN!
Praise God that Focus on the Family is on this case. They are wonderful and will shine the light on this murder. Watch the cockroaches scatter!
May God bless you for all you are doing for this family and this life. Please remember to take care of yourself through all of this, we need you.
anyone have the number for focus on the family----
It is an unreachable number to call them back...
oy!!
I made about 6 phone calls so far. Started with AG's office. Very nice woman assured me their office has received several calls about Mae and is now looking into the situation. We'll see.
Contacted GA Div. Aging Services - 404-657-5258
Nice woman. Asked me to email her the WND article which I did.
Next called Mayor Jeff Lukken's office. His woman asst. was incredibly hostile. She had obviously heard something about Mae but feigned ignorance. She tried to dust me off saying the Mayor is out til Monday. But I insisted that she would want the facts and asked if I could have the office fax number. She reluctantly rattled it off and hung up. I sent a cover sheet, the WND article, and Ken Mullinex's latest update about Mae's sister.
Office of Mayor Jeff Lukken
LaGrange, GA
PHONE: 706-883-2010
FAX: 706-883-2020
I do not understand this comment, eeevil....whose follow-up e-mail?
All I have is what is one their website:
800-232-6459
719-531-3400
Nothing is settled in this case until my Aunt Mae is given nourishment and fluids! This is far from settled and far from over. The doctors did not meet Monday...that is Bull!
They finally spoke on Wednesday and again today AND STILL NOTHING IS SETTLED OR DECIDED BETWEEN THEM. Every day they vacillate, my Aunt Mae grows weaker and closer to death.
Sure, we attended an emergency guardianship petition hearing before Judge Boyd on Monday, April 4. However, the Judge would barely allow our attorney, Jack Kirby, to speak and would not even allow our attorney to cross examine Mae Magourik's attending Physician, Dr. Stout, so as to ask the doctor if he would agree that there are alternative treatments to a dissected aorta which are not surgery (my Mom has had the same condition of a dissected aorta as her sister Mae and we know that Mae CAN BE successfully treated without surgery) but Probate Judge Boyd WOULD NOT allow our attorney to ask that question. Even though Beth Gaddy's forces state that the dissected aorta is the major reason they put her in Hospice.
So although we have a sort-of compromise, I am not holding out any hope especially since two of the three probate court appointed cardiologists are from the small clannish town of LaGrange, Ga.
This Judge has been NO HELP and has acted hostile and indifferent to our actions to keep my Aunt Mae alive. And what if the two LaGrange Ga. doctors rule against my Aunt? Should we just lay back and allow her to be WITHHELD NOURISHMENT AND FLUIDS? Heck No!!!
So although this Probate Judge is a slick talker, he has definitely not been on the side of life in this matter...however that is just my opinion. Judge Boyd has NEVER ATTENDED LAW SCHOOL yet he is a Probate Judge who has the power of life and death in these matters. But Ga. Law allows a probate judge to be a non lawyer and that is just not right. That issue is my next cause!!! So remember when you talk to this Judge Boyd...he is a slick politician...he runs for election...he may seem nice and say the right things however the one right thing he could say is that he is going to enforce Mae Magouirk's Living Will stipulations and make sure she has substantial nourishment and fluids to keep her alive....
Remember: MAE IS NOT TERMINAL...COMATOSE OR IN A VEGETATIVE STATE SO WHY IS JUDGE BOYD ALLOWING HER TO STAY IN HOSPICE???
In closing, examine the contradictions in Judge Boyd's own court writing which bears his signature. In Boyd's petition for the appointment of a temporary emergency guardian for my Aunt Mae, he writes, in "Probate Court Estate Ruling 138-05" the following:
"That a clear and substantial risk of death and or serious physical injury can occur to the proposed ward "Mae Magouirk" UNLESS she stays in HOSPICE at West Georgia Health Systems."
A RISK OF DEATH WILL OCCUR TO HER UNLESS SHE STAYS IN HOSPICE? Is he whacky or what??? Hospice is a home for the dying...Hospice is death. Who does he think he is fooling?? Now do you see what we are going against with this man and now do you she why I will not sit on my hands while these doctors he has appointed finally get around to acting.
EVERY DAY THESE DOCTORS WAIT TO DECIDE, MY AUNT MAE INCHES CLOSER TO DEATH!!!
Act now....I so need everyone to stay on these folks. The light of your involvement and public SCRUTINY will embarrass these folks who embrace the culture of death and thus will allow us to give Mae the proper medical care she deserves.
ACT NOW...KEEP THE PRESSURE ON THEM...DON'T FALL FOR THEIR PROPAGANDA. They want you to feel this is over....THE HELL IT IS!

i JUSTT ALKED TO THEM
LEFT A MESSAGE FOR THE ONE WHO CALLED ME- ON HIS VOICEMAIL--
I WILL LET YA'LL KNOW SOMETHING AS SOON AS I DO!
Here's the URL of the on-air interview of the 81 year old woman's nephew:
http://www.glennbeck.com/audio/free-audio.shtml
My Senators and Reps have been contacted. We all also need to put this story in front of our local talk radio show hosts.
LET'S ALL GET ACTIVE!
When do the schools in GA observe spring break?
I tried to explain this very thing to my mother-in-law over Easter weekend. She totally poo-pooed the notion. I guess I'll have to leave it up to my husband to let her know about this case. She won't want to hear it from me. :-(
DANG!
Has anyone kept a running list of ALL THE numbers faxes and email addy's??
ONE LIST WITH ALL OF THEM???
I am going nutz here trying to answer emails- phone- get info out etc...
You've hit the nail on the head here. This *really* should be the wake up call to what our society condoning the killing of babies has created. I pray that folks wake up to this.
Kewl...let me know what Focus says (I should have said I e-mailed them first thing this a.m......my sense of time is getting blurred)...and they e-mailed me back by 1:00 or so this afternoon.
Great job...
Gees I wish one of us could be the phone detail for Kenneth at this point. He obviously has reason to be overwhelmed. Prayers for him too.
