Excuse me but the purposeful neglect, actively applied by ordering that Terri neither be taken outside nor given ANY therapy while being kept ONLY in the hospice room her once husband placed her in when he began seeking the state to put her down ... I'd say that amounts to abuse and neglect aimed at getting her will to live to die so her body will follow ... don't do anything to defend this man's image, he's very bad and contradicts himself regularly on national television.
I could care less about Michael Schiavo's image. I care about the image of Free Republic that some are coming here and making unsubstantiated claims that he tried to kill Terry. That was the thrust of all my comments here. This thread should have been pulled down by the moderator a long time ago.
It's not up to me to decide whether Michael is a good or bad man but I will only say that the courts have found consistently for him and against Terry's parents. Your beef isn't with Michael, it's with a court system you believe doesn't value life.
