Briefly, "TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - An appeals court Tuesday lifted a stay which blocked a brain-damaged woman's husband's fight with Gov. Jeb Bush over a new law that restored her feeding tube. The ruling by the 2nd District Court of Appeal in Lakeland is a victory for Michael Schiavo, who has fought his in-laws in court for years for the right to remove the tube, saying his wife, Terri, would not want to be kept alive artificially.
Michael Schiavo's attorney, George Felos, asked the appellate panel Monday to let his constitutional challenge to the new law move forward while Bush takes issue with failing to be served with a formal notice of the lawsuit and in Tallahassee.
The three-judge appellate panel agreed, and also denied a motion filed Friday by Bush's attorneys asking that all proceedings in the case be halted.

"It's very bad news for Terri and good news for the voices of death," said Pat Anderson, an attorney for Bob and Mary Schindler, the parents of Terri Schiavo."

Somewhere on here you asked what the difference between PVF, Coma...etc were. I had a thought a hundred posts after yours. Check out the orpanages in Romania back, 15 years ago. Those children suffered from malnutrition and PVF....brought on by a lack of attention. They weren't read to, played with, mentally challenged. They couldn't walk, talk, and in many cases their limbs had atrophied, arms and legs drawn up in a fetal position.

Michael Schiavo has denied any sort of therapy, and that's what you get...PVF. Fortunately, SHE'S NOT A VEGETABLE, anymore than those orphans were. We just have to figure out how to get her the help she needs.
