24-hour Vigil Planned for Terri SchiavoFounder of Operation Rescue Joins the Vigil
Randall Terry

Posted on 10/13/2003 4:24:11 AM PDT by amdgmary

On Monday, Oct 13, at noon, family and friends of Terri Schindler-Schiavo will begin a round-the-clock vigil on at Woodside Hospice located at 6774 102nd Ave N, Pinellas Park (66th St N & 102nd Ave).

Terri is scheduled to have her feeding tube removed on Wednesday, Oct 15, at 2:00 pm. A policeman will be posted at Terri's door at the hospice in order to keep the parents out. Michael Schiavo, the husband, has ordered that the does not want family and friends near Terri.

Please join us at Woodside Hospice anytime - day or night - calling on Governor Jeb Bush to use his executive power to save Terri's life. Your presence will be welcomed for any length of time.

Please contact Gov. Jeb Bush and ask him to save Terri's life. He has the power to do so. Gov. Bush's e-mail is Jeb.Bush@MyFlorida.com and fl_governor@eog.state.fl.us. His phone number is 850-488-7146.

Randall Terry would like as many people as possible to call or send an e-mail to Gov. Bush. If you do call or send a message, please thank him for acting as "amicus curiae" (friend of the court) on behalf of Terri.

Terri is disabled, but she is not in a coma or in a persistant vegetative state. She is fully aware of her surroundings and responds to people around her. She laughs and smiles when her parents visit her. Last night, her parents told me that she says "yes", "no", "hello." This may not sound like much, but it shows that Terri is not in a coma as her husband claims. Terri also told her parents that she does not want to be starved to death.

Randall Terry of Operation Rescue will hold a press conference at noon on Monday, Oct 13th. He will also have a press conference on Tueday at noon and Wednesday at 2:00 pm. If you live in the Tampa Bay area, please join us for the vigil.

It is inconceivable that a judge has ordered the death of an innocent woman. We need to do everything in our power to help Terri.

Thank you for your support!

IMO, I wish Randall Terry would stay out of this.

There have been plenty of good people involved and working very hard to change this situation.

Terry will look like he's...'grandstanding'....

..and I think, do more harm than good.

I sincerely hope he will reconsider.

I believe it a disservice to all those who have worked so hard----for him to grab the spotlight!....

..and I'm saying this as a former admirer of Randall Terry.

"It is inconceivable that a judge has ordered the death of an innocent woman. We need to do everything in our power to help Terri."


I used to believe that the justice system was just at one time, but justice has fallen in the streets,it has been destroyed by the socialists with the help of the disinterested pubs; it is a sad day indeed now that mothers kill their children before they are born and now plan to kill the old , sick, hurt, and otherwise innocent people who can not protect themselves.
I'm glad that Jesus Christ is coming to rule and reign over the whole earth from the hills of Zion, the evil liberals and athiests will be sent to their own place because of the evil they do and the blood they cause to be shed.And the sad thing is that it is their own choice. They should listen to the small still voice of their consciences and not deny the creator God Jesus Christ, who loved us and gave Himself for our iniquities.

Is her brain still active? Is there evidence that she is still thinking?

It is not at all inconceivable, btw, that this is happening. It is routine and growing common.

America needs badly to be awakened to the culture of death march that is moving rapidly into our lives. Read some of the stories on my FR page to learn about the people who preceeded Terri in this killing of the disabled movement.

Her mother must be thinking about the day she was born. Her mother was there when Terri was brought into the world, and rejoiced at the miracle of her life. And now her mother must so terribly wish that if she cannot halt the death of Terri, at least she could be there with her daughter, to hold her and comfort her, and witness her death.

This tears my heart out.

But you must consider this. A lot of people including Republicans, don't even know who Randall Terry is. I don't think his name recognition in Florida is that high, definitely not in Tampa Bay. I really wouldn't worry about RT being there. I didn't know who RT was myself. At least he's going to do a press conference at noon. Hopefully, the sheeple media will be there. I think I'll contact Bay News 9. They don't cover news unless someone tells them to show up.

According to the Worldnetdaily article today, "Terri's parents . . . invited OR founder Randall Terry, as well as Gary McCullough to organize a round-the-clock vigil."

Terri can breathe on her own, she can see, she can laugh and cry. They are going to surgically remove the "port" for the feeding tube on Wednesday so that no last minute reprieves will be possible. They don't want the feeding tube to be put back in if someone like Jeb Bush intervenes.

Maybe they'll actually do her in when they surgically remove the "port" or even take vital organs for harvesting. NOBODY WOULD KNOW.

And, once Hospice starts morphine, Terri will be vegged out.

That is why we have another Thread Part 2 that includes contact information for Governor Bush. Email, Fax and Telephone. You can also go to myflorida.com to contact Jeb. Please ping your friends over to the Terri Thread Part 2. It's easy to locate on FR. I'm stepping out. If you want a ping over there, I'll refer you to Ethan_Allen.

Do you realize that you just said in a round-about way that it makes no difference who is governor of FL or president of the USA -- the same ol' same ol' happens anyway!

Well, I agree that Randall Terry could make things worse. However, no one else has stepped up to the plate to defend Terri Schindler. Randall Terry is not trying to grab the spotlight for himself. I am sure that he is torn about taking a role here for fear that his "help" would backfire. But there is no one else out there, and that means we cannot possibly prevail in this fight. No one else will help, and all the help Randall Terry can give will be dismissed as "extremism" by the powers-that-be. All the powers-to-be understand are campaign contributions and votes. They are not interested in poor people {Medicaid recipient} like Terri trying to live.
