URGENT - ACTION NEEDED AT ONCE for Terri Schiavo
Children of God for Life ^ | 10-22-03 | Debi Vinnedge

Posted on 10/22/2003 7:58:52 PM PDT by cpforlife.org

URGENT - ACTION NEEDED AT ONCE While many have heard that Terri Schiavo's feeding tube has been re-inserted, her life is in eminent danger. Michael Schiavo is still her legal guardian. The would-be murderer is responsible for guarding his own victim! In addition when Terri was moved from hospice, he immediately blocked visitation rights at the hospital for her parents, siblings and family priest - the only source of Terri's comfort, love and joy. An emergency motion ordered visitation restored for the family but it was not received in the attorney's offices until 5:15PM today. By the time the family was able to get down to the hospital, her husband had removed her from the hospital and taken to an "undisclosed location" - we are told perhaps back to hospice.

In any case, the family has not been informed - they do not know her medical condition or whether the feeding tube has been reinstated or not. An IV was inserted at approximately 9:30 last night. This is a woman starved for 7 days with no food or water yet Michael has the audacity to remove her from the hospital care!

It is an outrage that Michael Schiavo and his attorney feel they can spit in the face of the governor, the Fl House and Senate - and trample Terri's rights with absolutely no regard for her health, happines or wishes.

Complaints have been filed through the Department of Health and Human Services yet nothing is being done to protect Terri from physical harm or to assure her rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Please take a moment and file your complaint with the Office of Civil Rights. Click here for the form: Discrimination Complaint Form or go to: http://hhs.gov/ocr/discrimhowtofile.html You can also file your complaint by email at OCRcomplaint@hhs.gov or call the District Office in Atlanta: Roosevelt Freeman, 404 562-7886. Tell them to immediately act and remove her care/custody from Michael.

In addition, please contact your US Congressman and ask him to investigate why the Department of Justice is not protecting Terri's civil rights as a disabled American and further request that the Department of Health and Human Services Civil Rights Office act at once to protect her.

Go to our website to read the formal letters of complaint filed by Children of God for Life, the family and medical personnel through Delegate Robert Marshall with Attorney General Ashcroft, the House Judiciary Committee and President Bush, asking for immediate federal intervention. You should read the facts to help explain the problem to your Congressmen. www.cogforlife.org/schiavo.htm

We will keep the site updated daily with new developments until Terri is safe and her rights guaranteed by the US Constitution and the State of Florida are upheld! God bless, Debi Vinnedge, Executive Director Children of God for LIfe

I havent even read this post....but I am tired of this crap!
My heart goes out to terry and her family (blood and civil).
I saw this happen in my girlfriends family and the emotion that came forth was painful.
This battle is between terrys hubby and parents...they all love her..and are hurting..only God can judge this.
I am so tired of folks Writing laws attempting to be God.
some times there is rain in our lives, lets not write laws against it! All of the Schiavo family are innocent..ALL of them And we are too, Its in Gods hands not yours, not mine, not the hands of Jeb Bush, Accept it..it is a tragedy...</rant>

If the guy wants to be rid of her, why can't he just make her family her legal guardian?

Terri's family visited her tonight and are pretty satisfied with the arrangements.

-----------------------

Her family may be satisfied, but I am not. The hospice has been in league with her husband. The husband has now regained control of her for his own purposes. They will find a way to kill her. That's the reason she has been brought there.

Thank you!

According to the article she has the feeding tube in, is at the hospice and her parents have seen her.

Meanwhile the guardian ad litem only provides help in litigation and has nothing to do with actual guardian care of Terri....

so what good does that do.....really!!! This is the worst case of abuse I have ever heard of in my life! I will soon be 62!

Because he and his lawyers want her dead.

Her thieving, cheating, malevolent husband most assuredly does NOT love or care for her. He clearly demonstrated that by refusing therapy, family contact, and even last rites, just this week. Spare me the moral equivalence, he gave that up long ago. If I thought I would ever do to my wife what he has done to her, I would shoot myself.

You are right. It is the same basic info at

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1006219/posts

I don't like to be redundant, and there is SO much info!

It would seem by now that Jeb's team and Terri's parents team should know what they are dealing with (in the devil husband and his gouhl lawyer) and are on the ball!?

There must be a sum of money involved. Or, this guy may just be a control freak and wants to show comtempt to the family, judges, and everyone.

Maybe he's afraid she'll be able to speak again one day.

I suppose that's as good a reason as any. What a guy, that Mr. Schiavo!
