Excerpts:
Terri Schiavo's parents filed a flurry of motions Monday aimed at averting her death or ensuring her family's religious and personal concerns are respected should that effort fail.
The 11 motions filed Monday include a divorce petition seeking appointment of a legal guardian to act on the brain- damaged woman's behalf.
"Mr. Schiavo has engaged in open adultery...[Terri Schiavo] clearly would not desire to die while married to Mr. Schiavo," the motion states.
The motions rejected by Greer are the ones aimed at keeping Terri Schiavo alive. Gibbs said he will begin appeals that could put the case before the U.S. Supreme Court.
"He is on a death march,'' Schindler said of the judge.
Michael Schiavo should have no say over his wife's fate, Schindler said.
"The guy [Michael Schiavo] has been living with a woman for the past 10 years and has two children," he said. "It's an insult to Terri."
Michael Schiavo's attorney, George Felos, said any spouse who truly loves his or her partner would want that spouse to "seek some sort of happiness rather than to be alone."
"I think the real issue is what the state is going to do, either the Legislature or the governor," Felos said of talk in Tallahassee about intervening again.
Also Monday, Florida's bishops issued a plea that Terri Schiavo "continues to receive all treatments and care that will be of benefit to her."
Bishop Robert Lynch, of the Diocese of St. Petersburg, added: "I urge and pray that before the finality, one last effort be made for mediation."
"Michael Schiavo's attorney, George Felos, said any spouse who truly loves his or her partner would want that spouse to "seek some sort of happiness rather than to be alone."
A despicable insult to Terri and to the sanctity of the Marriage vows.
Whatever happened to "in sickness or in health" ???
How DARE he assume that Terri would have wanted this!!!
But this is what we have come to exspect from Felos.
This cynical comment is a peek into his awful mind.
"Bishop Robert Lynch, of the Diocese of St. Petersburg, added: "I urge and pray that before the finality, one last effort be made for mediation."
I'm a Catholic and can't believe what this bishop is saying.
Why mediate if he urges and prays for a finality, ie, Terri's killing?
Shame on this pseudo bishop.
