Judge George Greer ruled that the State of Florida has no right to take custody of Terri Schiavo, which ruling came hours after an appeal by Terri's parents to re-insert the feeding tube was refused by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, another hearing was scheduled tonight before US District Judge James D. Whittemore .. the same judge who previously heard and denied the request subsequent to the 'de novo' intention of the law past last weekend by the Congress and signed by President Bush, in an effort to confirm that no stone was left unturned before Terri would endure legally sanctioned dehydration until death.
Thanks for posting this, amdgmary. I am continuing to pray for a miracle for Terri, too.
The people who are killing Terri are doing everything they can to make us lose faith.
Dearest Friends of Terri,
I am very distraught this evening. I have contemplated whether to send this information to the people who have remained steadfast and very dedicated in their fight to free Terri from her captors. However, after great consideration, I feel it is only right that I share with you, Terri's supporters, the information I have been given to me this evening by Terri's family.
As we all have come to know, Terri Schindler is a strong woman who has an incredible will to live. Despite the daily inhumane torture that is inflicted upon her by estranged spouse, Michael Schiavo, (the man who has allowed her to lay in a bed with no food and water for the past eight days,) she has been fighting very hard to remain alive. Last Friday, in spite of her not being permitted therapy since 1993, Terri even tried to articulate the words "I Waaaaaa " in a very loud voice, in response to Attorney Weller saying to her, "all you have to do Terri, is tell us you want to live, and this whole thing can be over Terri."
Under normal circumstances, considering how well hydrated and nourished Terri has been due to receiving the balanced nutritional elements in enteral feedings, it would seem reasonable for Terri to live for another week, or so. However, what was reported by her family tonight, has presented my worst fears. Terri's breathing has changed and has recently become very labored. I am assuming this is happening so quickly because of the possible initiation of Woodside's "exit protocol." A protocol which delivers to her nebulized morphine, a narcotic which suppresses respirations. The "exit protocol" was obviously written to enhance her death process. Woodside claims Morphine was to be administered to provide her with so-called "comfort" measures. Odd, however, they would find it necessary to administer Morphine to a patient who Schiavo and Felos have declared all along has no pain, is without any feelings, and is brain dead. Go figure!
In simple English, it appears they are killing Terri faster than she has the ability to fight to stay alive any longer. Terri's family are physically and emotionally worn out. They feel disappointed and deserted by government leaders who they once supported. They pleaded for help from them to save their daughters life, but were repeatedly turned down by judges who chose to err on the side of death, as opposed to life. Sadly, leaving them alone to stand by and witness their daughter fighting against the inhumane death of starvation and dehydration.
The callous, cruel and bizarre behaviors we have also witnessed from Schiavo in his determination to rapidly kill the wife he claims to love; leads us to assume he may now be on a rapid mission to leave Terri's parents with the memory of her death on Easter.
Please pray that God continues to protect Terri. Pray that He will provide Terri with peace as she struggles to take her final breaths. Please pray that He allows her family to feel confident that they did everything possible to save her life. Please pray that He allows them to know how much she loves them for the valiant fight they have made on her behalf. Please pray that if Terri is forced to take her final breaths, it can be with her family by her bedside and not Michael Schiavo. Pray that someday soon she will be capable of inhaling the beauty of LIFE, in a place where no more harm will come to her.
As Terri now lays taking labored breaths, I myself, am given a sense of peace in knowing if she dies, she will soon be free from Michael ever bringing harm to her again. I will no longer have to worry about what he may do to her; or, how she has had to stay locked up in a room away from her family and the beautiful sounds of the earth we each are all able to enjoy each day. I will pray for each of you that you find peace within yourself in knowing you have each helped Terri in your own special way.
In the meantime, please know, for as long as Terri is alive and fighting, I will continue to pray for a miracle and will keep on fighting for her until her final breaths are taken. I ask that you all join me in doing the same.
Thank you so much for being an enormous strength for Terri's family. They continue to appreciate the love and dedication you continue to show to Terri, and to each of them.
I will keep you posted.
Respectfully, and with great admiration.

Little do they know what is REALLY happening. They have "awoken a sleeping giant".
Read the actual exit protocol found in Terri's medical file Exit Protocol. The document details the list of nacotics that is being given to Terri to hasten her death. The exit protocol ends with the statement, "Thank you for the opportunity to collaborate regarding this patient's care."
Read the Symptom Management Order for Terri Symptom Pain Management
The document was signed by Dr. Victor Gambone, the doctor who falsely certified that Terri was terminally ill in April 2000. This document details the amount of morphine being given to Terri.
Into your hands, O Lord,
we commend our sister Terri.
On this day we celebrate your glorious resurrection,
we ask you to hold her close,
and when it is time,
bring her home to you.
Be with those who loved her,
and tried so hard to save her,
and comfort their hearts
and give them your strength.
Amen.
Isn't the House Reform Committee the one that issued the subpoena for Terri? It is time for them to enforce it. Would it do any good to call each one of these guys and demand they enforce the subpoena?
I wish someone could find a similar point of law to save Terri.
Amen, dear Knitting, Amen ...
If I remember correctly, eccentric, the Attorney (State?) charged with doing just that, refused to act.
After reading that disgusting document, I guess one can come to the conclusion that even SATAN has a soft side to him.
And if that is not a correct memory about the responsible Attorney, Judge Greer refused to accept the subpoenas and acknowledge the Act of Congress.
Easter Sunday, five years ago today, was also the day Elian was also seized to be taken later to communist Cuba and Uncle Fidel/Satan's loving arms..
"Little do they know what is REALLY happening. They have "awoken a sleeping giant"."
Yeah, I think they think once Terri passes (I am still holding out for a miracle) this will all be forgotten, but no way...for Terri we need to make sure those that did this--are brought to justice--I want to see certain people in prison where they belong.
Thanks amd-
Exit Protocol
I thought they were giving her Morphine injections (of course not it has water in it). Reality is that Morphine inhalent given only to open her breathing passages? Body wriths and cramps in involuntary muscles spasms (with no pain relief?).. Why was is barbaric death method chosen? Why didn't they just give her a fast death by lethal injection or gas like criminals. Why mandate this poor woman to suffer this bodily torcher?
What cruel, twisted, and perverted minds they have. This whole thing is SATANIC..
// Well, well, well, I figured out why WTLV won't say anything about Jim King...they gave over $400 to his 2002 campaign. // .
I heard someone way say that it makes you die faster...this is sick and disgusting! it IS satanic!
I had posted it on my blog twice! Not just the link but the transcribed text.
It is a nasty testament to what people are willing to do. The lie of painless death only comes across as a truth because it is done on the weakest and least able to complain.
// She started crying. She knows whats going on. She was trying to vocalize something with Mary, Weller said. The governor should know that Terri still knows who her mother is and shes extremely distressed. Shes not a vegetable who doesnt know what is happening. //

It's based on a fantasy that she chose to forgo medical treatment...It's immoral to put her down with a lethal injection, but they can ease the way with Valium, Scoplamine and Morphine.
