My letter:
Thank you for respecting Mrs. Schiavo's right to refuse medical care, as well as the foundations of our country. It would be wholly inappropriate for a federal or state executive to interfere in the local matters as long as due process has been followed. Review has shown that due process has been followed--indeed, it was found that Mrs. Schiavo has perhaps received more than due process--and it is well that she may finally find peace.
IT MUST SUCK TO BE YOU TODAY.
Proud of yourself?
PATTERN OF DOMESTIC ABUST: http://www.theempirejournal.com/021505_pattern_of_domestic_abuse.htm
Michael Schiavo is a sadist who euthanized Terri's two cats, and far worse, admitted on the Larry King show that he had his parents starved to death when they were sick with cancer, etc., and abused Terri before the collapse, and continues to abuse her.
He won't allow her to have therapy to talk (she can say a few words), he won't allow her to have therapy to swallow better (she CAN swallow soft foods), he turns her family's pictures around in her room, won't allow her to go outside for some fresh air, won't allow sunlight in her room, won't allow her see the cute little dogs that are brought around to cheer patients, won't allow her teeth to be brushed, etc.
Michael Schiavo, Terri's estranged husband, melted down her wedding ring in order to make jewelry for himself.
He also killed her beloved cats, even after Terri's parents offered to take care of them.

New Evidence of Alleged Assault, Abuse Surfaces in Schiavo Case
By June Maxam and Ginger Berlin

As Florida’s Department of Children and Families headed to the Florida Supreme Court to appeal the ruling of Pinellas County probate court judge George W. Greer’s interference in their statutory mandated duties, further evidence of abuse and possible attempted murder of Terri Schiavo has come to the forefront.
And he had his own parents killed:

CALLER: Yes. Does it bother you that the death is so slow? Maybe Dr. Kevorkian-style would be a faster, more peaceful way?
SCHIAVO: Removing somebody's feeding is very painless. It is a very easy way to die. Probably the second better way to die, being the first being an aneurysm.
And it doesn't bother me at all. I've seen it happen.
