Just maybe she will be in the hands of the Lord on Friday instead of all the lunatics wanting to chain her to the public forum for the rest of her life.

You should remove the "pro-life" declaration on your about page.

Their motion is stronger in that they are requesting more time to investigate allegations of abuse -- something the Appeals Court should grant.

We need to all be praying right now for the appeals court and the DCF decision.

Father God I come into your presence with full confidence that you are in control, even though everything looks dark and blurry around us. I ask right now that your presence be felt in the courtroom where the Appeals Court is meeting. May justice be done in Terri's case. Overrule satan's attacks and bring us victory this very day. Grant a stay of execution for dear Terri. We ask this all in accordance with YOUR will and hearts' desire. Amen

There are an awful lot of FReepers who claim to be channeling God and know His will as well as Terri's. It's strange IMHO. My God is a loving God, and I don't fear death as I know someday I'll go to a better place. If that is Terri's wish, I say let her go.

I pray that God's will and Terri's will be done.

This entire affair has made me sick, and I can barely bring myself to read the latest news on this poor woman anymore. The word "horrible" doesn't begin to describe this entire situation. I don't know of any word or phrase that could do it justice really.

Judging from the number of posts in this and other threads, I thought I was the only one that felt this way. I now know that I'm not alone. It's weird, but I have the same reaction to Terri's plight as I do whenever I hear about people torturing and killing puppies or kittens. It's grisly and so inhumane that it physically sickens me to read about it. I'm not much of a praying type, but I pray for Terri every day.

Me too. There are some times, even today, when if I think about the details too much, I literally, *literally* feel nauseous.

It's sick how twisted our world has become.

If Terry is given morphine, she won't feel a thing.

Of course, her parents would claim that Terri had to be "killed" with morphine, because the removal of artificial feeding was not enough.

The media always SHRINKS and DARKENS this pic so you CAN'T tell that Terri is PAYING VERY CLOSE ATTENTION to the person talking to her!

Jesus wants incapacitated people starved to death so they can be with Him sooner? I must have missed that in the Bible.

Following from Cheryl Ford,

"Read: Today, the 2nd DCA denied the motion for a stay.

They are using Dr. Wolfson's testimony to base their ruling.

This is appaling and so apropos. Follows through with the corruption and ignorance in the local courts here in Florida. Terri's feeding tube will be removed on mARCH 18, 2005 AT 1:00PM ET based upon such decisions."

Santorum Vows to SAve Terri Schiavo

A top GOP Senator is vowing to save a disabled Florida woman from a court-ordered starvation-execution this week, with the new legislation reportedly winning the backing of key leaders in the U.S. Senate.

Commenting on plans to remove Terri Schiavo's feeding tube this Friday, Sen. Rick Santorum told the Hill newspaper on Wednesday: "That's not going to happen on my watch."

the article describes in detail what will happen to her as she dies....

Do you plan to stop eating when Terri stops eating?

No, it won't happen that fast, maybe in two weeks, but in the mean time she will suffer immensley.

High school name calling. That's all your "truth."

According to a 2003 article from World Net Daily,:

Terri's feeding tube was removed Wednesday by order of Pinellas County Circuit Court Judge George W. Greer.

Doctors say she can live no more than two weeks after its removal, but the Schindlers fear she could die this weekend from morphine treatment given to relieve some of the pain of the starvation process.
