TERRI SCHIAVO DAILY MARCH 2005 PART 4, DAY 5 OF HER DEHYDRATION -- PLEASE HANG ON WITH US

Various | 3-23-05

[STARWISE]

Tonight it is, March 22, 2005, over five days since Theresa Marie Schiavo commenced her ordeal of purposeful and legally sanctioned dehydration and starvation. We await a decision from the three judge panel from Eleventh Judicial Circuit as to her fate, as her family struggles with seeing Terri's physical health deteriorate.

I hadn't even paid attention to that, Graymatter. Then I thought I posted in error for that name, by accident. I did not. "Frank M. Hull" is a "female."

Just from memory, nothing more ...

The Schindlers had assumed expenses for Terri's rehab ... some, or all to be paid back when Terri's lawsuit was settled. I understand the husband from hell gave them nothing.

[DJ MacWoW]

Gibbs should have argued something new.

How? This case was about her civil rights. That's related to the old case.

[pollywog]

FNC is reporting the White house is urging the FL legislature to act again. The FNC reporterette conjectured that the WH hinting that the Fed courts may be disapointing.

How dissapointing. I hope that the PResident or Governor will step up to the plate and bat now. Too late for anything else.

[CindyDawg]

If Terri survives then I would like to see the guy that offered MS a million dollars put the money in a trust for her to live comfortably off of the rest of her life. I also hope the family writes a book and makes millions.

There are many elderly in Florida..and elsewhere. Is this what we can expect from those who may not be able to care for themselves well from now on? Does the Michael Schiavo standard become the norm?

[Raycpa]

Could someone please explain to me why Michael Schiavo rejected offers of both $1 million and $10 million to relinguish care of Terri?

Personally, I don't see how he could have taken any offer at this point after all his denials he isn't in it for the money. Secondly, how do you know the anon isn't a friend's offer made to make him look good?

[Soul Seeker]

I agree. My perspective of the country will be altered.

(sigh) All we can do now is pray for a miracle

[blueriver]

Yes - this shows just how heartless they are - if they were going to be at least honorable about it they would have inserted the tube this morning. This smells so rotten it is disgusting - all these judges know if they stick together they have complete power.

[supercat]

Could someone please explain to me why Michael Schiavo rejected offers of both $1 million and $10 million to relinguish care of Terri?

Because if it could be proven that he's known his wife wasn't PVS, the court orders allowing Terri to be dehydrated would be fraudulent and would provide no legal cover to Michael for having done so.

[Filthy Rich Republican Fat Cat]

Michael Schiavo is an absolutle dunce. He is ignorant to the point of being embarrassing. He is so transparent. It doesn't take a genius to see right through him.

It is difficult to believe people actually believe that rotten and filthy lying murderer...

...Michael Schiavo.

This partially explains how Hitler fooled people into condoning and committing the atrocities that were committed in Nazi Germany between 1933 - 1945.

Question to Freepers here waiting, am I wrong to believe that asking your loved ones to take away your food/water and watch an ugly death, in spite of what the media docs say, is cruelly SELFISH?

The respirator pulling isn't quite as bad, beleiving in God's natural death, but remember in the Bible that talks about the "giving of water?"
Christian belief or not, it (I think) is Selfish and spoiled to ask that of them.?

[Untouchable]

Could someone please explain to me why Michael Schiavo rejected offers of both $1 million and $10 million to relinguish care of Terri?

Because I am sure he stands to make as much through his insurance policies on Terri.

[shezza]

Michael says when he was awarded the $2.1 million for Terri's care (and his lack of companionship - pfffftt! yeah, right), Mr. Schindler confronted him and wanted to know how much of it HE (Mr. Schindler) was going to get, angry that Michael wouldn't share the wealth.

The Schindlers, on the other hand, say the confrontation was a wee bit different. When Michael was awarded the cash in January 1993, he had not spent a nickel on Terri by February, and Mr. Schindler approached him. Now that he had the money, he argued, Michael should be getting Terri some rehab and treatment. Instead, Michael signed DNR papers for Terri and forbade the hospital to do any form of therapy. This, the Schindlers say, is what the argument over money was about.

I leave the version you choose to believe to your own judgment.

If people in Florida ELECT these amoral people, then they certainly will NOT boycott orange juice people.

If polls are right neither will most people outside of Florida.

"If mercy and morality will not get them to act and save a life, perhaps economic hardship will?"

I doubt it but try it! I doubt that others will pressure them into electing moral judges.

OUTSTANDING!

[valleygal]

Zivasmate,

Your concern to do something is wonderful and you can begin by e-mailing the Florida senators and asking them to support SB 2128 that would save Terri and protect other disabled Floridians.

But, as I said, we've been here all day faxing, calling and e-mailing state senators, US congress, the President, talk radio hosts...

I think we will have to wait now and see what happens tonight and start again tomorrow if need be.

If you google "Florida stae senators" you'll find the info.
The link is buried deep on the thread from this moring, so googling it will be faster.

Take care.

Picture of Judge Hull here...I think! http://underneaththeirrobes.blogs.com/main/images/hull-thumb.JPG
(Don't worry, it's not dirty.)

[oreolady]

And something to the effect that MS sttated they could live together, and share in caring for Terri?
Why won't the media quote his testimoney from the lawsuit trial where MS said he wanted to "take Terri home" to care for her?

Love your prayers
