Aliska, I don't think the sptimes article is that big a deal.

The opposing side will make a big deal out of it. We are dealing with powerful forces of darkness, and this lone doctor will not carry the day, Nobel nominee or not imo.

Terri needs a lot more help if she is going to be allowed to live.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

I'm so sorry. I will keep you in my prayers.

All,

Here is the final questions to replace previous questions. Everyone please make sure to get them to Larry King by whatever means you can.

Suggested questions to be asked of Michael Schiavo, by Larry King,
for the family and the public who yearn for the TRUTH, while all of
Florida's law enforcement refuses to investigate because they are
being told not to by higher ups:

1. What happened that night Terri collapsed?

2. Why did Terri collapse?

3. What time did Terri collapse?

4. Was Terri getting ready to ask for a divorce?

5. Why did you first call Terri's father and not 911?

6. Why was Terri still lying on the floor face down with hands
towards her neck and arms under her chest, when Bobby got
there?

7. Why didn't you turn her over and place her on her back?

8. Why did it take you so long to call 911?

9. Why did you call Terri's father first?

10. Why didn't you give Terri CPR before arrival of the paramedics?

11. Did you call attorney Greico first?

12. Why do a dozen doctors say that there are no normal markers
that remain after a person has experienced a heart attack?

13. Why was Terri denied the sacrament of Holy Communion by a
Catholic priest?

14. Why can't Terri have flowers in her room?

15. Why didn't you fix Terri's wheelchair?

16. Why is Terri forbidden to go outside with her Mother?

17. You made a vow to carry out her wishes, why haven't your
honored your wedding vows?

18. How much do you stand to benefit from Terri's death monetarily
or otherwise?

19. Why did you say recently that Terri died in your arms, when you
were not saying that before and during the malpractice lawsuit?

20. How can you call yourself Terri's husband when in fact you have
been involved in a fornicating adulterous relationship with
another woman for over 8 years and are the father of her 2
children?

21. Why is Terri not allowed to be visited by all of the people she
has ever known in her life? Are you afraid they might see
"something"?

22. If you are so confident about Terri's "PVS" diagnosis, why
won't you release medical records so her parents can see for
themselves?

23. In 2002, why did Judge David Seth Walker (now retired) not
consider removing food and hydration from David Bryer saying,
"You feed goldfish, yet your Judge Greer has ordered YOU to
cause Terri's death by dehydration and starvation when David
Bryer had no written advance directives either?

24. Why did Michael put Terri's cats to sleep shortly after her
"collapse"?

25. Do you receive compensation as a board member of Jerger and
Centonze (fiancee) Insurance Co. which has the address of your
residence?


NOTE: Please make sure that Larry King gets these questions.

Ask Michael what his account is of the night before and that early
morning of Terri's collapse, and then compare to the account of the
family given below.

Chronological account:

Something happened. Terri collapses in the hallway next to the
bathroom. She goes down flat on her face with her arms underneath
her body passed out. Instead of calling 911, Michael calls Terri's
father first, or his attorney. Bob Sr. says hang up and call 911.
Then Bob Sr. calls Bob Jr. who lives in the same apartment complex
and tells him to get over to Terri's place. Bob Jr. gets there
within two minutes after his dad calls him. Bobby walks in. Terri
is lying face down on the floor in the hallway and was making a
kind of snoring sound. The paramedics get there. Schiavo opens the
door and lets the paramedics into the apt. But Schiavo has been
consistently telling everybody that he was cradling Terri in his
arms when the paramedics got there, when in fact upon Bobby's
arrival she was face down on the floor with her hands to her neck.
Bobby walks over trying to nudge his sister awake. Paramedics
arrive and Schiavo lets them in. How could Michael have been
cradling Terri and answer the door to let the paramedics in at the
same time? And so many more questions go unanswered to resolve
these suspicious circumstances that remain about Terri's collapse.

She had no heart attack. What really happened? And why is there
this insistence to cause her death by dehydration and starvation?

Michael has moved on with his life. Why does he not let Terri move
on with her LIFE too by just getting a divorce, splitting the
marital assets so she would have rehabilitation money again by the
sale of her interest in the Marie Court house and other assets, and
let her LIVE with DIGNITY?

May the Lord yet touch You with length of days ~ the beauty of His presence ~ and His calm assurance ~ "lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world." Matthew 28:20

[Graymatter]

Don't stop there, najida. There's also the millions of poor people on welfare. Let's cut off the money, that they can't make themselves.
Ah, but we're asking liberals to be consistent! No, that won't do...

[iowamomforfreedom]

**Dr. Hammesfahr emphatically stated that the neck spinal injury this patient incurred was by Strangulation.**

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the patient referred to was not Terri Schiavo, and that Dr. H never said to the court that he believed Terri was strangled.

I believe you are correct. I think what he said was that he had only seen that type of neck injury one other time, and the patient had been a strangulation victim.

[iowamomforfreedom]

The opposing side will make a big deal out of it. We are dealing with powerful forces of darkness, and this lone doctor will not carry the day, Nobel nominee or not imo.

Terri needs a lot more help if she is going to be allowed to live.

Oh yes, I agree, we need more than one doctor on our side. I think phenn said there were 12 or 13 doctors that agreed that Terri could benefit from rehab. I don't know exactly who though. I still think it will be hard to discredit Dr. Hammesfahr though.

[2nd amendment mama]

Also, because what kind of person her husband is has no bearing in the legal issue at hand

Even if he just wants her dead so he can marry his mistress???? Boy am I ever glad I'm not married to a creep like you!!!!!

[firerosemom]

Oh, may God bless you! I am praying for you. There is a book called Power Over Pain, (http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.gsp?product_id=1974599&sourceid=1500000000000000294920) that I found helpful to read while trying to understand my husband's severe back pain, and it may help you address pain issues too, should they come up. Improperly managed pain, and people's fear of it, can perhaps lead some to choose a premature death, when the real issue may be doctors' failure to properly manage pain. I have never had to face severe pain (although I did have natural childbirth 3 times - my husband's chronic back pain seemed far worse to me) but if I ever did, I would certainly look for a physician who was experienced in Pain Management. Hope this is of some help.

[2nd amendment mama]

I'm sorry to hear of your troubles. Prayers sent your way.

[Graymatter]

And he's not going to address any of our questions, Chong. Gringo1 is here to bait and irritate people. I don't understand why so many are rising to the bait.
Let's not be diverted from more fruitful pursuits!

[nickcarraway]

Keep fighting! We will pray for you!

[Aliska]

Oh yes, I agree, we need more than one doctor on our side. I think phenn said there were 12 or 13 doctors that agreed that Terri could benefit from rehab. I don't know exactly who though. I still think it will be hard to discredit Dr. Hammesfahr though.

We could use a few hundred more.

I went through this with my elderly aunt. I didn't know anything about any of this. Most I talked to, chaplain, nurse, priest, (he must have been busy and didn't seem to want my phone call), presby minister, just about everybody except my sister, were against it and tried to make me feel like I was doing the wrong thing. So I have no confidence in the medical profession when it comes to ethics in this kind of situation. Actually I've had little confidence in the medical profession ethically since abortion became legal. I was on my own.

I couldn't let her starve to death and thought she might be more comfortable, acutely aware that I may be dooming her to possible years of suffering, but I took the risk. And prayed. She lived two weeks after that and died peacefully with only a couple episodes of pain.

Doctors have to be detached in order to survive what they have to deal with on a daily basis or they would go insane imo.

They do heroic things to save some people; I'll be the first to acknowledge that.

If I had been the doctor, I would have had to refuse to remove Terri's feeding tube and would have ruined my career.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

That is such a great list!

[Coral Snake]

Here Is What God says about this issue:

Exodus 20:13
Thou shalt not kill.

This is one of the ten passages of the Bible written in STONE directly by God Himself.

[Gringo1]

*Yawn*

[Gringo1]

"Boy am I ever glad I'm not married to a creep like you!!!!!"


I wouldn't marry a whacky religious zealot with nothing better to do but meddle in other peoples lives, so no problem there.

[incindiary]

"She is only not dying because someone else is keeping her alive with a tube. Give her a ham sandwich and see if she can eat it alone without help, then I'll buy into the "Terri is alive and vibrant, and wants to go shopping" thing"

lol, ok so if a person cannot lift their hand to feed themself they are "dying" and we should kill them? So let's kill all the quadriplegics in the world, hell, by that logic let's kill all newborn babies too, they are only "not dying" because someone has to feed them!

Being able to feed yourself is not what determines your humanity, or personhood. Besides, the reason Terri is still on a feeding tube is because her HINO has denied her ANY therapy for the last 10 years...she needs to be re-taught how to eat, etc. He will not even allow her to take a test to see if she can swallow. (we know she can swallow because she doesn't drool) Did it ever occur to you that maybe he WANTS her to be on a feeding tube, so he can be able to "pull the plug"?

[Coral Snake]

I think you should send some of the material on this site to Larry King:

http://www.hospicepatients.org/Hosp-FL-Suncoast-entrypage.html

He may be a big pro death liberal but he also knows that a good scandal helps keep the TV ratings up. (Kobe is a good example of this.) And if this doesn't qualify than I don't know what does.
