TERRI SCHIAVO MARCH 2005 DAILIES Fla's Til of the Hun Sets March Date to Starve Terri
Terri's Fight, The Empire Journal, World Net Daily, Life News ^ | February 28, 2005 | floriduh voter

Posted on 02/28/2005 7:08:08 AM PST by floriduh voter

Terri's Freepers,

Judge George Greer denied Terri's parents' Motion for a Stay to protect their daughter's life while there are still pending issues in this LIFE AND DEATH MATTER. In addition the Department of Children and Family Services made a surprise visit to the court hearing the other day and asked Judge Greer if they could approach the bench. Judge Greer denied DCF the opportunity to speak. DCF asked for 60 days to conduct a complete investigation of allegations that have surfaced in the form of a Complaint to their agency.

What was set in motion instead? On Friday, February 25th, Judge Greer REFUSED TO issue another Stay because he was "not comfortable" issuing a say to protect a Ward of the State but instead "set a date certain" (on his calendar at least, not on mine) to BEGIN THE BARBARIC, ANTI-AMERICAN, STARVATION-DEHYDRATION SLOW MURDER OF TERRI.

Attorney Gibbs for Terri's parents held a press conference after J. Greer's order that was so tastefully written to indicate that "he was giving the Schindlers until March 18th so they could "prepare for Last Rites." Attorneys Gibbs called this ruling and prior rulings "Hitler-resque". Indeed.

If Judge Greer wasn't LEGALIZING EUTHANASIA in his courtroom, why any need for Last Rites? Greer's urgency to fulfill this killing places urgency on every one of us to lobby Governor Bush, Florida's House and Florida's Senate.

A Judge in America is ordering the manner of someone's death, a disabled woman who is healthy but needs rehabilitation.

Time is short so we don't really have time to get into Greer's mind to see why he is Florida's Til of the Hun.

What can we do?

1. LOBBY TO SAVE TERRI

2. HELP BUMP THIS THREAD.

3. POST ARTICLES YOU SEE ABOUT TERRI.

4. VISIT PINELLAS COUNTY FLORIDA AND VIGIL WITH US AT HOSPICE WOODSIDE.

5. VISIT TALLAHASSEE AND LOBBY IN THE HALLS OF THE LEGISLATURE.

6. HOLD A DEMONSTRATION AT THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION.

7. Join the Message Board that freepers started at the Crystal Cathedral/Hour of Power. TELL YOUR CHURCH ABOUT TERRI.

8. Tell your friends that Terri is alert and aware of her surroundings and to visit www.terrisfight.org to see her videos.

9. PETITIONS. We will gather current Petitions here for you. At this time, you can sign a SAVE TERRI PETITION AT www.renewamerica.us. THERE ARE ALSO IMPEACH GREER PETITIONS ABOUT.

Finally, the Pope has no Living Will. He will be SAFE as long as he stays away from George Greer's courtroom. The Pope is in our thoughts and prayers and he knows of Terri. He wants Terri to be freed from oppression and from a painless death by starvation-dehyration.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO EVERY DAY, THE PAY ISN'T VERY GOOD BUT THE FRINGE BENEFITS ARE THE GREATEST. You are Great Americans and liberty is Terri's and freedom from oppression. Freepers, that is the big payoff if we continue our daunting task.

Terri's family is grateful to you and all of your prayers are being heard by the Giver of Life.

This is Terri's Fight and the battle is enjoined. JOIN US TO SAVE TERRI FROM FORCES THAT HAVE BUT ONE GOAL THAT IS AGAINST EVERYTHING AMERICAN.

GUIDELINES: If you want to start frivolous discussions, please start your own thread in chat.

If you like something from www.theempirejournal.com, please do not post the entire article at Free Republic. Unless I hear otherwise, I believe that we are allowed to post the title and link. TEJ is a great team member of Terri's network. Thanks, TEJ for making a difference and for getting the truth out there.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR CONTACT INFO, IT IS ON THE WAY. Thanks, floriduh voter

I'm sorry but it is HIGH TIME Governor BUSH GOT OFF HIS REAR END. HE COULD MAKE AN EXECUTIVE ORDER TODAY. I'm sick and tired of this PHONY HAND WRINGING AND PHONY COURT PROCEDURES THAT ARE CARRYING ON. HE MUST MOVE HIMSELF. The way I see it, it is going to take the MILITIA to back off these DETERMINED KILLERS.

"I heard Kate speak at the rally on Sunday...very, very moving, and in spots, horrifying. She said that when they cut her for the feeding tube they either didn't give her enough anaesthetic or they gave her none at all, and she said she felt every cut."

How horrible for her. These idiots assume if you have no voice, you cannot feel. How about if you are deaf? Does that mean you can't feel, too? Duh

The ONLY REASON Terri IS considered PVS, by Judge Greer is DUE TO GREER PLAYING A DOCTOR FROM the BENCH~ Many Very qualified DOCTORS disagree with the PVS diagnosis.

GREER PLAYED God by choosing to IGNORE the VERY DOCTOR WHO TREATED TERRI FOR SEVERAL YEARS.

OUTRAGEOUS, in my opinion. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Pepper I really can't stand much more of the TALK. I want to see some concrete ACTION. Otherwise we are looking at an evil FARCE. I think I'll go back to the Peterson threads. I will continue to pray but MAN is God's hands, feet and mouth on this earth. CO

"Kay Adamson's husband put a big sign over her bed for the medical staff saying, "This is a human being. Treat her like one."

This is so wonderful to hear.

What a difference when you have a husband that is loyal and truly loves you.

Looks like another good old American Judge just got to execute another innocent, helpless human. If we don't draw the line in the sand with Terri we will never stop the death mill that is gearing up in this country.

Most of us are feeling a little bit helpless right now.

Obviously, there is a lot of talk on this thread, but often because someone posts something here, it has spurred me on to send one more email, make one more call, contact the media, send one more donation, etc.

I think it is better than going over to the Peterson threads? I've never read them.

My post to a troll from another thread -- food for thought.

There are many worthwhile disabled people, who contribute much -- some to the world at large .. others only to their loved ones, a value and gift unto itself and to whom their life and presence is a joy and honor to support.

The definition of just what constitutes a "worthy life" is the issue here, and how the preservation of that precious life is adjudicated. I'm sure this man would love nothing more than to merely have to cope with a feeding tube (essentially a straw) and to work to pursue potentially beneficial speech and swallowing therapy... but .. ooops, I forgot .. he has loving and supportive "guardians" nearby who work to preserve his life and make his days as comfortable as possible.

Were he not a genius, do you then believe his "guardians" and loved ones would work to see that he was starved to death because he required speaking and eating assistance to stay alive (in his case, a lot of assistance)? Is Terri any less a worthy and valuable life than Stephen Hawking? The love and the desire of the "guardians" and loved ones to help keep their dear disabled one alive for as long as God designs is the difference. Life is precious -- and where there is life there is hope.

===============================================

Stephen Hawking

Up to 1974, I was able to feed myself, and get in and out of bed. Jane managed to help me, and bring up the children, without outside help. However, things were getting more difficult, so we took to having one of my research students living with us. In return for free accommodation, and a lot of my attention, they helped me get up and go to bed.

In 1980, we changed to a system of community and private nurses, who came in for an hour or two in the morning and evening. This lasted until I caught pneumonia in 1985. I had to have a tracheostomy operation. After this, I had to have 24 hour nursing care. This was made possible by grants from several foundations.

Before the operation, my speech had been getting more slurred, so that only a few people who knew me well, could understand me. But at least I could communicate. I wrote scientific papers by dictating to a secretary, and I gave seminars through an interpreter, who repeated my words more clearly. However, the tracheostomy operation removed my ability to speak altogether.

For a time, the only way I could communicate was to spell out words letter by letter, by raising my eyebrows when someone pointed to the right letter on a spelling card. It is pretty difficult to carry on a conversation like that, let alone write a scientific paper. However, a computer expert in California, called Walt Woltosz, heard of my plight. He sent me a computer program he had written, called Equalizer. This allowed me to select words from a series of menus on the screen, by pressing a switch in my hand.

The program could also be controlled by a switch, operated by head or eye movement. When I have built up what I want to say, I can send it to a speech synthesizer. At first, I just ran the Equalizer program on a desk top computer. However David Mason, of Cambridge Adaptive Communication, fitted a small portable computer and a speech synthesizer to my wheel chair. This system allowed me to communicate much better than I could before. I can manage up to 15 words a minute. I can either speak what I have written, or save it on disk. I can then print it out, or call it back, and speak it sentence by sentence.

Using this system, I have written a book, and dozens of scientific papers. I have also given many scientific and popular talks. They have all been well received. I think that is in a large part due to the quality of the speech synthesizer, which is made by Speech Plus.

One's voice is very important. If you have a slurred voice, people are likely to treat you as mentally deficient: Does he take sugar? This synthesizer is by far the best I have heard, because it varies the intonation, and doesn't speak like a Dalek. The only trouble is that it gives me an American accent. However, the company is working on a British version.

I have had motor neurone disease for practically all my adult life. Yet it has not prevented me from having a very attractive family, and being successful in my work. This is thanks to the help I have received from Jane, my children, and a large number of other people and organisations. I have been lucky, that my condition has progressed more slowly than is often the case. But it shows that one need not lose hope. Stephen Hawking

LIFE IS A GIFT FROM GOD, IS PRECIOUS, AND WHERE THERE IS LIFE THERE IS HOPE.

PRAYER FOR TERRI BUMP!

Schiavo in 48 hour window


Video Story
http://www.wtsp.com/news/news.aspx?storyid=12564


By:Bill McGinty

Supporters like the Rev. Patrick Mahoney of the Christian Defense Coalition say they expect people to try to enter the Woodside Hospice to “rescue” Terri Schiavo if her feeding tube is removed. The Pinellas Park Police has officers stationed in the parking lot and inside the front doors of the hospice in case those threats are attempted.

The Florida Legislature is now working on a bill that Governor Bush says he will sign into law that would prevent the removal of Terri Schiavo’s feeding tube. The bill should be on the floor for debate by mid-Friday.

Terri Schiavo has been in what doctors call a persistent vegetative state since she collapsed from a heart attack in 1990. Terri’s Schiavo’s husband Michael Schiavo told a local newspaper that Terri would not want to live this way and that the government should stay out of family business.

Lynch's dioscese has had sexual scandal and misconduct. Civil suits filed as well as one former priest in jail. Greer benefited from a campaign donation. Maybe the vatican made Lynch make a choice between Greer and the Catholic church.

Time is running out. Keep FReeping!

Get the Talk Shows to Florida
To Save Terri

It's been suggested that we try to get pro-Terri talk show hosts to do remote broadcasts from the hospice or the courthouse. Preferably they'd do it for several days, and we'd have more than one host, so there would be coverage all day long. Even just one host would be a great help. I volunteered to put together contact info on the most likely hosts, and producers if possible, and post it here periodically.
Updates: Added Laura Ingraham. Added Congress.org database of all local media.
