Thank You so much...that law making food and water life support...the timing of it is discusting, the people involved. That law looks to me like it was made for Terri's demise and then they jump up and down and scream about Terri's law.
Did y'all see Dave Weldon,M.D. on C-Span? He did a Special Order speech about Terri.
Well, I thought her choice of words - STONE - was very unfortunate. She said something like I'm tired of shoving this stone up hill. Very unfortunate choice of words. Sorry but I'm glad she took a hike.
The definition of insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. She was getting nowhere fast. At least Gibbs is giving Greer a ROYAL BATTLE AND HE'S LEAVING NO STONE UNTURNED!!!
yes, she may work there but the reporters are fair game
Bishop Lynch - Terri's Bishop who made a sickening statement and obviously doesn't care if Terri is starved to death - his phone number is 727-341-6830 or email him at VI@dosp.org
God bless you for your Post# 1085....I hope everyone will take the time to read it!
Thank you for contacting Governor Bush to ask for his help in the case of Terri Schiavo. He has asked me to respond on his behalf.
The Governor shares your concern for this young woman and has pledged to do whatever he can within the laws of Florida to protect her life. The next few weeks will be very difficult ones for Ms. Schiavo, her family and all of those who care about her. The Governor asks that you keep her and her family in your prayers during this difficult time.
Again, thank you for writing Governor Bush about this important issue.
Sincerely, L. OConnor
Office of Citizens Services
I felt profoundly moved, and meditated on several verses in Psalms, claiming certain verses for Terri. I prayed for her family who loves her, even for her enemies whom God will deal with, no doubt.
The Living Bible, 1971, KNT Charitable Trust,
Psalm 7, verses 11-17 was a great part of my prayer.
11-God is a judge who is perfectly fair, and he is angry with the wicked every day.
12-Unless they repent, he will sharpen his sword and slay them, he has bent his and strung his bow
13- and fitted it with deadly arrows made from the shafts of fire.
14-The wicked man conceives an evil plot, labors with its dark details, and brings to birth his treachery and lies;
15-let him fall into his own trap.
16-May the violence he plans for others boomerang upon himself; let him die.
17-Oh, how grateful and thankful I am to the Lord because he is so good. I will sing praise to the name of the Lord who is above all lords.
I was praying for Terri, her safety, freedom, etc., and for her parents and supporters and reading Biblical passages when I felt repetitive.
Just before I writing up this post, I went back to make sure I had prayed during the right time (like checking the door twice to make sure it is locked-lol-obssessive/complusive behavior? You bet. lol) and read the point of our covering these 24 hours up to during court time tomorrow and realized I had not actually prayed about the court proceedings. So back I went back to our Father with a P.S.
One of these days I'll shape up!
The letter from Gov Bush's ofc doesn't really say much, does it. When are they going to act?
It was made for Terri's demise! Absolutely! Yes, the hypocrisy is astounding!
Enquiring minds would love to know what Curt Weldon had to say! (Was he on the House Floor?)

Dr. Dave Weldon of FL, not Curt Weldon of PA. Thank you, Dr. Weldon...wish I had heard it!
I have no doubt it was. If you read information contained at that hyscience website, it gives more specific information about Bilirakis, one of those who sponsored the bill, and who was on the Hospice Board with Felos. Connecting the dots is not so very hard.
Wonderful how plainly God speaks, is it not?
14-The wicked man conceives an evil plot, labors with its dark details, and brings to birth his treachery and lies;
15-let him fall into his own trap.
16-May the violence he plans for others boomerang upon himself; let him die.
Yes, about 1:45 CST. He said Terri was not in a vegetative state and he was going to do something.
He said she should not be killed. A lot of other stuff.
He is 15th district in Florida and is a doctor.
I'd like to make an analogy, if I may. It isn't an exact parallel (most notably in scale), but through a narrow scope, there are valid comparisons to be made.
One of my uncles had diabetes. (Okay, more than one, but I'm just going to talk about one uncle in particular.) Over the years, his diabetes progressed. One by one, all of his limbs had to be amputated. The diabetes and the amputations were distinct from eachother, yet related. The diabetes was the cause of the amputations.
The amputations can be compared to the extermination of Jews. The diabetes can be compared to the extermination of disabled people. If we could have prevented the diabetes, that would have prevented the amputations. We've learned a lot from medical history, and are able to prevent diabetes in some cases, or at least control it better. If we are to prevent a future holocaust, we must learn from world history how to prevent it. We can't do that, if we refuse to admit how it starts. It starts with the concept that some life is less valuable than other life. From there, it escalates to some life being of such little value it has no right to continue. The bar continually moves up, to include more and more lives in the category of life unworthy of life.
The Holocaust did not just suddenly start with the mass extermination of Jews. Those who died prior to the climax of the Holocaust were just as much victims as those who died later. They were at one time just as much alive. They are now just as dead.
Carenot-so what did David Weldon have to say and do ya know why C-SPAN happened to be covering the Florida legislature? Are they tuning into the Terri Schindler Schiavo death march?
The holocaust began with the extermination of the disabled and mentally handicapped. The push for the euthanization of Terri and people like her is an EXACT parallel.
