Just heard on Fox....so sad.

Good for you! Very good! When I refuse solicitations from any Florida business, I'll be sure to let them know why, as well.
"If a revolution could be one"
Oops. Won. I've been up all night.
How about the greater likelihood that she killed herself with her bulimia. Choking someone doesnt cause heart attacks. Screwing up your body chemistry by not eating or purging can.
"Each year, Planned Parenthood affiliated health centers nationwide provide high quality, affordable reproductive health care and sexual health information to nearly five million women, men and teens. Planned Parenthood welcomes everyone — regardless of race, age, sexuality, disability, or income. In fact, one in four women has visited Planned Parenthood at least once. When clients walk through our doors, they find a dynamic community resource that offers a wide range of medical and counseling services and health care education, as well as advocacy programs.
Committed, professional staff run Planned Parenthood health centers. Caring physicians, nurse practitioners, and other staff take time to talk with clients, encouraging them to ask questions and discuss their feelings in a confidential setting.
Educators offer innovative programs on making responsible choices about health and sexuality. Public affairs staff are constantly working to protect access to all reproductive health services and information"
Planned Parenthood has been around since its Founder, Margaret Sanger tried to commit genocide on blacks (which PP is successfully doing), and anyone else she considered inferior.
Organizations lie about who they are Mary. Perhaps you shouldn't be so gullible.
Why is Terri not choking on her own saliva? She does not drool, she is swallowing.
I will say again.... I would never want a doctor to diagnose any illness of mine without all the testing modern technology has to offer. If there is no chance of a different diagnosis, then why not permit a PET scan for Terri? Who is afraid of results of a PET scan and why?
She didn't kill herself, Dave. She's still very much alive.
Big deal. That website is one doctor's opinion, yet you are quoting it like it is the gospel truth. The website you quoted disagrees with the results of one particular study of Hammesfahr's. Show me how that invalidates all of Hammesfahr's work.
Well said. We live under a tyranny of judges that is worse than the tyrannies of ancient Greece and Rome.
That would be insignificant compared to what others have called me. And it has no bearing on Hammesfahr's claims.

Make that: Terri's wishes according to Michael Schiavo five years after the "fact."
I hope my conclusions are not true, but to me it is very disturbing to see this result in the polls - that so many quickly jump to the conclusion that it is okay to remove her feeding tube just going by what they hear in the MSM when there is so much we do not know and when there are varying opinions on her condition. There is so much that is disturbing about this particular case and I am just not to the point where I believe Terri is brain dead and beyond help, from things I have read. When there is doubt, I feel we must err on the side of life.
I understand many people have been through making similar heartwrenching decisions about loved ones - in the case of my dad, he had a living will and we honored it and did nothing extraordinary to keep him alive as he was dying of cancer, and the decision your family made in regard to your brother was made out of love for your brother and what you felt was best for him. Why can't we let Terri's family (not her so-called husband) decide what is best for Terri?
It is so heartbreaking to see her parents want to love and care for her, and they should be given that chance. They are her family, the ones who have been by her side, loving her and caring for her from the beginning. I don't trust Michael to have Terri's best interests at heart - however, I would trust her parents, brother and sister to have Terri's best interest at heart and could better accept whatever decision they made about Terri. It's the circumstances of this particular case, and I believe many who are so quick to support removing her feeding tube do not know all the facts of this case - there are so many unresolved issues, and I don't trust Michael's motives.
None of us would want to be or want Terri to be in the condition she is in - but her loving family should be the ones to determine what is best for her, not a husband who deserted her for another woman and abandoned his care for her long ago.
I want to believe that most Americans would not support removing her feeding tube if they thought she were not brain dead, but we seem to be a country that vales life less and less. When we as a society accept partial birth abortion - when the judge who just denied reinsertion of Terri's feeding tube went out of his way to protect the bald eagle - when we give criminals more rights than we give a disabled - not brain dead - woman, we have to take a long look at who we are as a people and where we are headed because we are becoming a society that increasingly devalues human life - and I am worried.
Why do you rely on crooked polls? Did you do that during the election last year, or did you question who was taking the poll, who was being polled, and what the poll questions were?
The gullible ones are those who are willing to trust Hammesfahr.
But, not long after. Probably due to its own quackery.
Dr. Hammesfahr was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology in 1999 for his work in brain injury and stroke. He has successfully treated thousands of patients using vasodilator therapy which increases blood flow to the brain healing conditions previously thought to be untreatable. He has been using this technology for more than a decade with good results. Patients are seeing remarkable reduction in pain, return of function in previously unusable limbs, and return of lost sight, hearing, and other function. In 2000, this work resulted in approval for the first patent in history granted for the treatment of neurological diseases including coma, stroke, brain injury, cerebral palsy, hypoxic injuries and other neurovascular disorders with medications that restore blood flow to the brain. It was extended to treat successfully disabilities including ADD, ADHD, Dyslexia, Tourette's and Autism as well as behaviorally and emotionally disturbed children, seizures and severe migraines.The federal government has recognized Dr. Hammesfahr’s clinical expertise, naming him Reviewer and Chief Reviewer for evaluation and funding for new clinical research programs. He has also been a court-recognized expert and a court-ordered treating physician for these techniques that he pioneered. He has lectured and published extensively. Dr. Hammesfahr graduated from the Northwestern Honors Program in Medical Education in 1982, a program which only accepts a small number of high school students directly into medical school. He then trained in Neurosurgery and Neurology at the Medical College in Virginia. He has received Board Certification in both Neurology and Pain Management.

False. They didnt think it was inhumane, they just didnt have the time to wait. Too many to kill. Not enough room to store them.
Are judges actually elected in Florida in the sense that someone runs against them? Or are they just on a ballot with sort of a "keep/don't keep" choice?
A check in the box "NO" REMOVES THEM.
Hammesfahr is a NNINO -- Nobel Nominee in Name Only. You can't believe everything you read.
I do not want to really pierce the husband wife wall by inlaws.
FL law already provides for evidence from parents. Remember this feud has been going on for over a decade.
I think due consideration should have been given to the argument of "abandonment".
I think the democrats are going to try and spin this into a right to privacy issue. Since when were Deathocrats interested in state's rights?
