Terri Schindler Schiavo's Vigil ^ | 10/19/03 | Becki Snow

[dandelion]

Freepers, we need your help NOW! This is coming to you from Terri's family, live from the vigil site.

Jeb Bush has called an emergency special session and they will take it up 8:05am eastern time.IF the measure passes, Terri's execution will be stayed and feeding/hydration will resume immediately. She will be SAVED if this bill passes.

We need you ALL to call the Florida Legislative Branch - House and Senate. They can be found at

http://www.floridasoundoff.com/browse/pol_contact.htm

All contact numbers and emails can be found at this url.

Terri is still alive and she's starting to really feel the effects of dehydration. Her skin is starting to crack, and she is in pain - but TERRI IS FIGHTING TO LIVE. This is NOT over. By the Grace of God, she is still alive. If Terri is willing to fight, we have an obligation to fight along side her. No matter where you are tonight, or where you are registered to vote, we need you to call these Florida Legislators NOW.

14 Freepers have been there from Ohio, Pennsylvania, etc.

Freepers include PrepareToLeave, GWBandGOPMan, FloriduhVoter, FreepAroundTheClock, Cyn, TaxRelief, TaxDeduction1, TaxDeduction2, PickYourPoison, IraquiCards, PC93, GoreNoMore (?), SarasMom, Brk4the1, and AMDGMary, and Dandelion. Dandelion can sing like an angel.

Terri is reported still alert, and smiling. A priest attempted to give her communion. He was denied.

Freepers who have spoken with the media have stayed on message and are doing well.

Someone bought a banner ad on AOL. It says "Terri is not in a coma!" Radion and TV are there.

Floriduh voter and Freeparoundtheclock were both in the NY Times article.

FoxNews is not there today.

Future NC Congressman (Hopefully) Vernon Robinson is also there.

Will do right now.

I still think Michael Schiavo will have a long, happy life. Sometimes God permits that kind of injustice to teach others or lesson, or maybe God has a strange sense of humor. Of course, our ideas of "happiness" may not be the same. Schiavo is convinced that HE is right. That's why he is letting the Schindlers in now without interference; he knows she is just a few hours from death now, and the legislature, were it to act (and I don't think it will) will come too late to save her. So he can now afford to appear charitable.

So he can now afford to appear charitable.

Taking a pretty big risk, though, when you think about it. A mortal one, even.

I know life isn't a radio drama, but I wonder whether the Schiavo Triumvirate might unravel a bit when its members no longer need each others' services but have enough dirt to land the others in jail.

What our founders believed for our country:

''A patriot was one who stood with his country because his country stood for right. But should his country turn toward the wrong, then a patriot must stand against his country. A true patriot as well as a genuine leader must always take the higher ground of God's law when confronted with the evils of man's law. ... Government is not the enemy, for it is ordained of God. The enemy to freedom is tyrannical government that presumes to take the place of God." ~ Patrick Henry

Sometimes, too, God permits this kind of injustice to see where we, the onlookers, stand.

So why doesn't Jeb Bush quote Patrick Henry tonight and restore her emergency hydration? I fear tomorrow will be too late. I know I couldn't have lasted nearly this long under similar circumstances, and I am supposedly healthy to begin with.

What I wrote to all on website--
Please--get Bush to act and have her feeding tube re-inserted, and THEN the legislature can debate the topic without running out the clock on Terri's life. But that poor woman must not be allowed to die. Would you want your daughter/wife/friend to be treated this way (no antibiotics, no therapy, no nothing)? America is eclipsing to third-worldism, and no case shows that more clearly than this one.
Please help!
