Did you also wake up with a renewed sense of what you were helping do is the right thing as I did? Maybe our dreams are God's way of helping us keep going and reassuring us that we are doing the right thing?
I know that every night after they pulled the feeding tube I woke up parched and so thirsty, which is very unusual for me. Terri was on my mind each night. So I prayed then, specifically for Jesus to be her living water and bread of life. The night she was in the hospital I did not wake up but I did again last night. I prayed again for her because I know she is not out of harms way.
This is definitely a spiritual battle going on here. We need to keep standing firm in our faith and resisting the devil. When we do he will run. The battle's not over, but the victory is won. Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.
Here we see men working to kill Terri and they do not even try to hide it.
Oh I agree, I bet that policy has quite a few zero's. They give turds a bad name. Both are sociopathic evil predators.
Director, Suncoast Center for Patient Safety Evaluation and Research
He's listed as such on the right side near the top of that link. Also if you just google the terms of his name with Suncoast, you'll come up with a number of hits.
I would assume you mean the first one. The second is aimed pretty specifically at the hospice. I would be glad to do that.
Dear Mr. Felos,
I do not expect my correspondence to change your opinion or the opinion of your client Michael Schiavo where Terri Schiavo is concerned. Nevertheless, I will continue by saying that I am in firm disagreement with your client.
Sir, as this case has garnered national attention it has also allowed many unanswered questions to surface. Because this case has been brought before the legislature and the senate of Florida and because it could potentially have an effect on all states' laws pertaining to living wills, I, an American citizen demand answers. p> Sir, if you or your client are not hiding anything illegal, sinister or otherwise harmful to Terri Schiavo, why are her medical records sealed and her parents not allowed to have access to them? If Michael Schiavo has Terri's best interest at heart, why is he barring her parents, whom she loves and who love her, from seeing her freely?
How is it that Michael Schiavo during the malpractice suit in which he won a substantial monetary award, which was designated specifically for the rehabilitive care of Terri, swore, under oath, that his wishes were to care for Terri "for the rest of her life" only to later have a recollection of a casual conversation in which Terri stated "her wishes" to be allowed to die if she was ever disabled? Is it not a fact that Terri fully supported her father's choice to place his mother, her own grandmother, on life support and did Terri not visit and care for her grandmother regularly while she was in her final days in a nursing home? Surely, if Terri had been against medically supportive measures to prolong life, this would have been the perfect opportunity for her to convey such to her father.
I would be curious to hear the present opinions of the jury who decided to award Mr. Schiavo money to provide rehabilitive care for his wife as he testified was his wishes. Mr. Schiavo tearfully testified in front of this jury stating that he needed this moeny to care for his wife and to provide care for her, yet her care is funded by Medicaid, the tax dollars of Floridians, and your legal teams has received the bulk of that award in legal fees. Please, do not attempt to appease those of us questioning this by stating that the judge allowed this to happen. The truth of the matter is that you have benefitted financially from the diability of this young woman's plight.
Mr. Felos, I also question your ethics in this case. Were you not a member of the board of directors of the very same hospice facility in which Terri Schiavo is being cared for? Of all of the medical facilities in the state of Florida, how did Mrs. Schiavo end up there? Because of your affiliation with this particular center you are bound by ethics to remove yourself from this case due to potential conflicts of interests.
I also question how Terri ended up at a center whose specialty is to care for the terminally ill when, in fact, Terri was not terminally ill.
Of course, there are many other questions that I and others would desire to have answered but, for now these will do.
Mr. Felos, if you believe that hiding behind Terri's alleged wishes is gathering support for your case, you are sadly mistaken. The effort to support Terri Schiavo's right to live is beginning to steam roll into what I believe will soon be a national outcry against the injustices being done to her and her parents by the hand of her husband and yourself.
I will await your reply and, in the meantime, pray that God will have mercy on your soul and the soul of your client. Sincerely, XXXXXXXX Johnson
LOL! Actually, I went over there and went through registering How many times does this make now? and was amazed to discover that the only thread remotely related to this topic was a very short one that wasn't even relevant, so I figured I'd wait. I guess we have different priorities than they do. < /understatement >
