UPDATE FROM TERRI'S VIGIL SITE ON LOCATION... by floriduh voter and drk4the1: TERRI IS NOT BEING RE-HYDRATED AT MORTON PLANT HOSPITAL IN CLEARWATER, FL. The Governor's Office is under the impression and reporting that the procedure started at 7:07 pm. While it's being reported to the family attorney that she is not going to receive anything. A telephonic hearing is scheduled to begin at 8:30 pm est with Judge Douglas Baird re: Michael Schiavo's suit against Gov. Bush and his executive order of today. Additionally, Michael S. is disputing his removal as Terri's legal guardian. Anything helpful appreciated. Contact floriduh voter or the drk screen name. We are outside fighting the mosquitoes.

LIFE!

It is the oldest and most hideous evil known to man and God.

new thread here

I don't know. It's inhuman(e).

I e-mailed Gov. Bush FV's letter from the 'front lines' - in case they are denying Terri any sustenance still.

It's one of those things where they believe a woman who they claim can not comprehend or feel a thing is "suffering" by staying alive. So they want her to have the tube removed for the next few weeks as they fight this out just in case.

They're ghouls.

Never mind that link. I thought I was on a different thread and tried to stop it but it went through anyway...

[lonevoice]

Is this the same hospital Terri was sent to before when she had the urinary tract infection and they denied her antibiotics?

What we have here is a power play between the wills of the Legislative and Executive branches of the Florida government against the Judiciary. Last time I counted a vote of 2-to-1 means that the "1" loses.

[MarMema]

GHOULS!!!! COME PRAY WITH US!!

[Mo1]

Powerful forces are definitely working on both sides of the issue right now, and I doubt we're getting a full picture of the true facts as of this moment.

I think you're right

I just got his email from a good friend near Terri!!


Kevin,
They are defying the Governor's order!!!! Hospice and Morton Plant Hospital both refused to hydrate her claiming the law passed today is unconstitutional and therefore, they are afraid of being sued. Michael Schiavo's attorney is threatening to sue any doctor who provides feeding or care to her - this is unbelievable and surreal!!!! Terri is still without any food or water and is under armed guard! Totally insane - totally evil!!
In Christ always,
Debi
P.S Can anyone get this up on Free Republic ASAP??? We have a delegate from Washington calling the chief of staff at Morton Plant right now asking them if they have lost their minds....
Meanwhile I filed a formal complaint today with Ashchroft - it went to several Catholic senators as well - DC is listening...someone needs to pull off a political miracle!!

B. Effective immediately, all medical facilities and personnel providing medical care for Theresa Schiavo, and all those acting in concert or participation with them, are hereby directed to immediately provide nutrition and hydration to Theresa Schiavo by means of a gastronomy tube, or by any other method determined appropriate in the reasonable judgment of a licensed physician.

I have no idea what is actually going on. However, note Paragraph B, which I've quoted above, especially the part in bold. If the "reasonable judgment of a licensed physician" is that there is no "appropriate" way to do this in her current condition, that could turn out to be a loophole.

Jeb's got military-trained medical personnel in the Florida National Guard. Go in and get it done!

[Ladysmith]

Big time! Right about now I want to see photos of Terri getting rehydrated and attended to. This is got to be so agonizing for her and her parents!

[HiTech RedNeck]

This ain't Gore vs. Bush, mikey slime and felon grime. we are getting mighty tired of you.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

I'm not sure. Difficult for the hospital to handle the public outrage that refusing to feed Terri would provoke at this point. Hiding her in a back room while ignoring the Gov.'s order would more closely follow the rest of Terri's sorry treatment by those charged with caring for her.

I e-mailed Gov. Bush FV's letter from the 'front lines' - in case they are denying Terri any sustenance still.

If any one has a direct phone number to the Gov .. they need to call him asap to clear this up

[cpforlife.org]

I'd order the State Police to goin with force and make this happen. TIME FOR ACTION!!!

Let the "judge" be damned!!!!
