"AP News is reporting that the husband has denied Terri communion on Easter.

They don't want a priest or anyone to see what she looks like. This is really bad."

More [sad and painful details] from AP below.

Family supporters said Schiavo's breathing became increasingly labored during the day. An attorney for the Schindlers, Barbara Weller, said hospice workers began giving morphine to Schiavo to ease pain brought on by her body's failure.

Schiavo's husband, Michael, has said she would not want to be kept alive artificially. The Schindlers believe their daughter could improve and say she laughs, cries, responds to them and tries to talk.

Weller said Terri cried when her mother hugged her Saturday night. "She knows what's going on. She was trying to vocalize something with Mary."

"The governor should know that Terri still knows who her mother is, and she's extremely distressed," Weller said. "She's not a vegetable who doesn't know what is happening."

If this is true, Governor Bush should get her out of there now.

I as the Governor could not allow a conscious person to be starved to death, even if it meant I would lose office.

It is a moral duty to act.
