TALLAHASSEE, FL -- According to a news release sent by the Terry Schindler-Schiavo Foundation, Florida Speaker Johnnie Byrd will introduce "Terri's Bill" during the special session Monday.

The bill would put an immediate moratorium on all dehydration and starvation deaths in Florida. Meanwhile, supporters of Terri Schiavo showed up Sunday outside a Pinellas Park hospice.

Doctors say Schiavo has been in a vegetative state since complications from a heart attack in 1990. Her husband was granted a court order that her feeding tube be removed, saying his wife wouldn't have wanted to be kept alive.

What is her brother saying?

(He looks exhausted! Me paraphrasing:)

Family incredibly grateful for miracle, but there is still more to come. He hears that Michael's atty is going back before Greer to try to stop it. Every minute is like an hour to Terri right now, we need to get her back on nourishment.

(rough paraphrase, interview is over now, but MSNBC has a reporter live at the vigil, they said they would be going back shortly. I had a tape rolling and will go back and confirm my paraphrasing, will take a few minutes)

Ten bucks says the hospice has taken all the phones off the hook so no one can call and tell them the good news.

They need to quickly get her out of this hospice and into a long term care facility. Hospice is a place to die, not a place to live.

Greer has secretly authorized MS to plunder Terri's rehab trust to pay for these efforts at having her put down. Did I mention that Boortz just asserted in no uncertain terms that Terri Schiavo is brain dead? Yeah, Boortz the neuropathologist. duh

Thank you, God!! Please let this be the miracle the family and all of us have been praying for. I don't see how Judge Greer could override this now. He can't, can he?

No, you're right on.

Jeb better have some Troopers available to get her out of that hell hole.
She needs to be in an ICU, pronto.

And while he's at it, how about arresting the terrible triumvirate and holding them for attempted murder!

Or am I asking too much?
