Bob and Mary Schindler, both practicing Catholics, urged dozens of supporters gathered outside the Florida hospice where Schiavo is being cared for to go home for Easter.
"The family would request that everyone go home, be with your children, hold them close and share every moment you have with them," said Brother Paul O'Donnell, a Franciscan monk who is a spiritual adviser to the Schindlers.
It was not clear if the Schindlers had finally abandoned all legal avenues in their fight to restart their 41-year-old daughter's feeding, a cause that embroiled the Florida legislature, the U.S. Congress and President Bush.

there is money to do so
LIFE SUPPORT! That's news, she wasn't on life support, a feeding tube is NOT life support. The spin goes on...
>>Greer and Felos are both members of the Hemlock Society. And they are both involved in the hospice chain. They moved Terri into THEIR hospice in order to test out their new euthanasia law, signed by Jeb Bush in 1999.<<<
Goodness.
This case stinks with a capitol SSSSUCK!
That is Florida for ya'.
my my...
Really? I've seen several. Most of them long time members of FR. They've been pinging each other as a group to threads where they defend all of Judge Greer's rulings as being just.
I meant STARVATIOIN has been done all over the world.
I don't think Muslims would even deign to think woman are worth putting feeding tubes INTO their bodies..!!
They do 'honor killings,' don't they?
Goodness, Aliska -
Don't give them any ideas. They are such evil vile people they would love to do the dehydration and starvation routine to whoever they capture.
Actually, from what I understand (and I'm absolutely certain I will be corrected if I'm wrong) Florida state law considers feeding tubes to be a facet of Life Support.
Sick, but state law.
Terri's parents amend the call to go home as per thread:
Terri's Father: Stay With Terri, and with Us; 24-hour Vigil to Continue
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1371621/posts
Earlier this evening a misspoken statement told supporters to go home and be with their families.
Terri Schiavo's father, Bob Schindler, would like to correct this with following statement:
"What I meant to have announced was that people should go home and go to church with their families on Easter Sunday. But not to stay home. We want people to continue to be here [at the hospice] with Terri, and with us." -- Bob Schindler, Sr.
The 24-hour vigil will continue in front of the Woodside Hospice, where Terri lives, located at 6774 102nd Avenue N. (near 66th Street N and 102nd Avenue N) in Pinellas Park, Florida.
They're equal.
Gov. Bush did not WANT to do want he should.
I keep saying that...I keep saying that....
And so do others!
Well, a blend of legislation and impeachments of judges might be a good start...
That should read
YOUR PRESENCE IS DEMANDED AT THE HOME OF KING GEORGE FOR EASTER BRUNCH TOMORROW. IT IS SO ORDERED AND ADJUDGED.
King George is the boss, after all.
If he won't protect her while she is alive then why do you think he will do anything after she is dead? He is a wimp like his read my lips no new taxes father. It sad that Reno had more courage than the Bush family. Damn sad.
Yea I really wanted to see the Everglades down there but no way; if hubby or I had an event they would off us for sure.
Really? Got links to specific examples of someone saying something like "This is just, and legal, soit's the right thing to do"?
Terri would have been dead years ago, were it not for Jeb.Now go wash your keyboard out with soap.
Care to pick at it?
One person as in a case like this...?
or is it
One person as in a case like this...?
You say tomato, I'll say tomatoe.
And it was STILL ONE PERSON.
I think you might mean that some of us defend the rule of law and don't feel that violence or anarchy is a necessary resultant when the remedy does not fit one's ideals....we can change the laws for sure, but not circumvent them for our own moral prejudice
I still have much respect for Gov. Bush and here is why.
He did not break the law to save Terri Schiavo, neither did his brother.
Aside from doing that they both did everything the law would allow them to do.
and I don't have to like it, but I respect their respect for the law, Judge Greer however is a whole other matter.
He bent the law ten ways to sunday.
