Wayne Galley Sings for a Life

Wayne Galley sings for a life
By ARRISSIA OWEN TURNER

Wayne Galley sounds tired. He's not pooped because of late nights awake with his 2-month old newborn baby. He is emotionally exhausted because one hour before our phone conversation, the Florida appeals court laid down a ruling all but securing what Galley calls "murder."

On the other end of the receiver, the Big Bear resident and musician is in Florida on a mission, despite the devastating blow to the parents of Theresa Schindler Schiavo, the disabled woman who goes by Terri, whose life hinges on men in black robes upholding the law.

A society will be judged on how it treats those in the dawn of life, those in the twilight of life, and those in the shadow of life.

"Next will come the elimination of those who are deemed to be a burden to individuals or society. And, ultimately, we will begin eliminating 'useless eaters' unless we can stop this death machine in its tracks."

I copied this part of the story which tells Terri's story in a nutshell.

http://www.bigbeargrizzly.net/articles/2005/02/18/news/galley.txt
As a parent of three children then, now four, Galley shook to his core when he saw Terri's parents on TV in 2004. "This is the most unjust situation I have ever seen," Galley says from the headquarters of Terri's supporters. Galley is in Florida to support the cause so dear to his heart, preparing for upcoming rallies to help gain public support for the potentially landmark case. "We are about to watch a lady get murdered," he says passionately. "She's alive and cognizant of people and her family. Her husband will not allow her to have therapy. They are just going to let her die. It's such a mockery to everything this country stands for."

Galley's first active involvement with the case occurred in Big Bear. In his home recording studio, words poured onto the page and metamorphosed into songs filling a CD called "Life," each song dedicated to Terri's plight. The songs are straightforward, titled "I Am Alive (Terri's Song)," "I Have the Right to Live" and "I Want to Fly Home." He sings "God's creation needs protection" with a voice wrought with emotion.

I always wonder about charts and polls like that. Who the heck determines who the "moderates" are? Most people tend to think their own views are moderate.

Good point. My views are moderate but I am way right of what most Republican politicions are willing to admit in public.

The way I read it -- it's the depression/WWII generation who is least in favor of euthanasia. I think that's significant. That's the generation that fought the country (Germany) where euthanasia was an official, large-scale policy.

The wording of the survey has an interesting catch. "Disease that cannot be cured" doesn't necessarily mean a terminal condition.

I just watched a dear friend die after 12 hours of heart surgery, one month in intensive care, with his family beside him the whole time. As painful as it is, this is the way it should be, with The Lord in control and family and loved ones praying that The Lord's will be done. Much more beautiful than
Michaels attitude of "how quickly can we kill her?". God Bless Terri's family who love her more than words can say, and GOD BLESS AMERICA! May He restore the love that we once had.

It is truly SURREAL. He gets it exactly RIGHT!
