Schiavo's parents begin 24 hour vigil

St. Petersburg - Bob and Mary Schindler have done everything they can think of for their daughter.

As a last resort, the Schindler's will start a twenty-four hour vigil at Woodside Hospice in St. Petersburg in an effort to help save their daughter. Their daughter is Terri Schiavo. A thirty-nine year old woman who has been in a coma like state for thirteen years since a massive heart attack in 1990.

The Schindler's have been battling the court system and Terri's husband for years. In court, a state judge ordered Schiavo's feeding tube be removed October 15th. Schiavo's husband, Michael, says his wife never wanted to be kept alive artificially. Schiavo's parents say Terri responds to voices and believes she could be rehabilitated.

The Schindler's and Michael Schiavo have also been fighting over who is the legal guardian of Terri. A judge is expected to rule on that issue soon.

"after a massive heart attack"

Do these people not ever THINK, or listen to themselves?

So after all these years as supposedly Comatose, or PVS, or dying in a Hospice, being "kept alive by machines", her heart is so strong that Michael has to forcibly kill her off, even trying for six days and failing by starving/dehydrating her, YET WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE AS A VERY YOUNG WOMAN SHE GOT THIS WAY BY HAVING A MASSIVE HEART ATTACK???

fOR SHAME on the ignorance and sheer stupidity of these people who push this rot to an unsuspecting public.
