A M E N ! ! !
FELLOW FREEPERS!!!! I think we have an invitation from oceanperch. Let's plan a get together in sunny Florida crash the "no way out nursing home" and take Terri and her folks to Oregon. What do you think?
Janet Reno did this to Elian Gonzales and got away with it so why can't we?
Because he is as phony as all those politicians who say they are "personally" against abortion, but they respect the laws of this country, blah, blah, blah..."
he displays an utter detachment from his moral feelings, suggestive of a moral disorder (i.e. cowardice). Especially when you consider the "justice" rendered was suspect to begin with.
Jeb should stay this execution, but I don't believe he has the guts to confront the right to die lobby that has moved in for the kill in elder-populated FL.
Leatherneck, I like your style! There are other good posters too, but I'm too tired to mention you all.
Keep praying!
I believe the problem is that everyone has bought the "spin" that she is in a vegetative coma. It was mentioned on CBS news last night, Sean Hannity today during his radio show and on several news casts during the day. If they knew the truth!
I truly hope that someone gives Terri a seditive or something so she won't have to suffer. We don't let our animals suffer like that!
Yeh, or, they've bought the out right lie that she is comatose, or in a coma. The media are soooooooooo lazy. They don't bother to check the facts.
Terri is not in a coma-she is alert, her eyes open she smiles, responds to stimuli
-Terri has NEVER been given therapy- ever-even though husband went to court and begged for lots of $$$$$$$ so he could pay for her rehabilitation and "take care of her for the rest of her life" even said he wanted to study to be a "nurse" so he could help her. He NEVER MENTIONED while he was suing for $$$$ to provide for Terri's rehabilitation- That she wanted no life support. She was already disabled at this time.
It was right after husband was awarded money that he "suddenly remembered " that Terri had told him she wanted no life support, GAVE HER NO THERAPY, Refused to even have her teeth brushed, EVEN TRIED TO REFUSE HER ANTI-BIOTICS when she got a UTI, but was told he couldn't get away with that. and, he started proceedings to have her murdered by starvation.-The husbands "judge" and the lawyer are "right to die advocates".
Nurses caring for Terri have gone on record and stated they have heard the husband say of Terri "why won't that b*tch die"
-Relatives and friends of Terri have stated that she was talking about "divorce" before Terri "collapsed"
Terri's "husband" has been involved with another woman for years and has one child with her and another on the way
The husband's attorney is being paid out of money from the settlement meant for Terri's therapy. Thanks to the right-to-die judge who ordered this, and also that Terri was NEVER given any therapy period
-Terri was moved to hopice that attorney was on board of directors of - Terri is not terminally ill-does not meet the criteria for hospice care
And lastly
-IF YOU STOP FEEDING ANY HUMAN BEING- THEY WILL DIE...
I know it's just tooooo much to ask you in the media to get up off your lazy and report the facts of this case , but I wish you would -All you in the media who are giving the false impression that Terri is an unconscious woman in a coma, using a ventillator to breathe that will simply be turned off, that her death will be painless and that her "loving " husband has been sitting by her side these past 13 years are playing some part in her death
At least if you tried to get your facts straight, maybe some-one could find a way to help or , or maybe the husband or judge would have an attack of conscience and let Terri's poor parents take her home. As it is now, she will die horribly and alone-(Thanks to the "loving" husband not allowing Terri's own mother or father , siblings near her-this hasn't been reported by you either) thanks for nothing.
I'm sorry but which poll were you referring to? It must be my old age but I don't remember talking about a poll. And, I'm not sure what you mean about waiting for my sarcasm boot to drop. Guess I'm just tired from all the E-Mailing, calling and writing for about a week now trying to get someone to do something for Terri.
Surpise, I did receive a return E-Mail from Judicial Watch! Here's hoping and praying they can accomplish something! Following is their message:
Thank you for contacting Judicial Watch. We are preparing a statement with our legal analysis and a call for the appropriate government officials to take the legal action that is within their power to prevent the death of Terri Schiavo. Please continue to track the matter on our Internet web site.

RGSpincich's Reply 59, calls into question, the following, as posted by cpforlife.org:
1. Dr. Hammesfahr, of HAMMESFAHR NEUROLOGICAL INSTITUTE. http://www.hni-online.com/ emphatically stated that the neck spinal injury this patient incurred was by Strangulation. Schiavo's attorney avoided challenging Dr. Hammesfahr's strangulation statement. Proof of those statements below - video of the Dr saying it, along with saying that with therapy, her condition can improve. http://www.floridaneurologicalinstitute.com/schiavo_channel10_may7,8,2001.htm Debi, there are 5 video and audio clips. They total more than 20 MB's so they wouldn't be practical to email. All are available at the address above.
I [First_Salute] listened to and watched all the audio and video at that Channel 10 link. There is no information about Dr. Hammesfahr stating anything about "Strangulation."
HOWEVER ---
In the second Channel 10 News clip, video for May 8, 2001 ---
Channel 10 5:00 PM Clip Part 2 - Dr. Hammesfahr coverage on Terri Schiavo case
--- the Channel 10 news anchor states:
An ex-girlfriend of Michael Schiavo, is set to give a court deposition this week; Cindy Shook has said Michael once told her that he didn't know what his wife's wishes really were.
Cindy Shook, in that news anchor's report, is Cindy Brashers Shook, who is the court witness for May 8, 2001 in the chronology of events that are listed in iowamomfor freedom's Reply 48, at cpforlife.org's page, which is also a restatement of My Favorite Headache's Reply 18 above. Unfortunately, the chronology, above, does not indicate Cindy's information, but the Channel 10 news anchor has provided a glimpse.
