Judgenfuhrer Greer: "I am fully aware that death by starvation instead of gas chamber
WAS the penalty for Jews and Gypsies trying to escape the Crematoria at Auschwitz.
Death by starvation is back and by Imperial black-robed brethren Mullahs
shall make this America's legacy, beginning in thee Pinellas County, Florida way ."

It sounds downright awful and how do you know she can't percieve any of it?

[Sally II]

Thanks for posting that Spunky. I hadn't seen that. Keep posting it. I hope this case doesn't end with Terri's death. We need to start really looking into the people who have been advocating for Terri's death and the philosophies that are driving them.

[freespirited]

But suppose you have a living will and you direct that should you be in a persistent vegetative state you be allowed to die. . . . The law allows no choice but starvation and dehydration.

I have a living will. When I was in the process of drawing it up, my lawyer strongly advised me not to allow the withholding of water. So mine permits withholding of food only. Given all the information I have now, I think I am going to revisit this with my doctors.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Let's all give a hand to the hospice staff for being so kind. I want to barf! If anyone is to feel pain, let's hope that Greer, Felos, and Schaivo feel lots of pain before their time on earth ends. May they all three be greeted at the Gates of Hell together.

Aaahhh, what gentle, dignified euphoria!

[Lancey Howard]

Sounds positively euphoric.
Too bad there was nobody around to save and protect this woman from her barbaric murder-in-progress. The probate judge has the final word in Florida.

If people prefer to believe Felos or the media rather than your post....here's the cite from which those symptoms can be found:

As per Judge Lynch of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, "removal of a nutrition and hydration tube would likely create some or all of the following effects before death" (as listed in the text of this thread).

Brophy v. New England Sinai Hosp., 398 Mass. 417, 444 n.2, 497 N.E.2d 626, 641 n.2 (1986) (Nolan, J., dissenting)

What would account for the bleeding eyes that her parent's attorney reported?

[ironman]

Could the morphine be to prevent the providers from having to witness grand mal seizures caused by the dehydration??

Following is excerpts containing information regarding Terri's "Exit Protocol."

Terri's Starvation Commences: Terri's "Exit Protocol" Begins (FR thread)

"Exit Protocol" (thrownback.blogspot.com) for one of the other times Terri had to endure starvation and dehydration.

Pain medication, such as Naproxen, is prescribed, as indicated below (red type is information added by Cheryl Ford, RN). As far as "peacefully" dying, I would call spasms and seizures anything but peaceful:

3. Monitor symptoms of pain/discomfort. If noted, medicate with Naproxen rectal suppository 375 mg Q8* prn.

Wait a minute! George Felos, Michael Schiavo, and all the other advocates of feeding-tube removal have been saying repeatedly that dying by denial of nutrition & hydration is "peaceful" and "painless". They've both said so in interviews and press conferences, such as on Larry King Live. So if dying by denial of nutrition and hydration is, as Michael said, "painless and probably the most natural way to die", then why is medication needed for pain and discomfort?

* * *

7. Multifocal myoclonus or terminal agitation (sometimes caused by electrolyte imbalance). Consider diazepam rectal administration 5-10 mg. May repeat in 4 hours if not resolved then daily - twice daily as needed.

Myoclonus is twitching or spasm of the muscles. Multifocal means "occurring in many different parts of the body". This is usually the result of imbalance in electrolytes, the chemicals, such as salt, potassium, and calcium, which make your bodies internal electrical "batteries" work. Nerve impulses and muscle contractions are governed by electro-chemical reactions utilizing these chemicals. Dehydration causes these chemicals to be out of balance, interfering with normal nerve and muscle function. This can result in nerves and muscles "firing off" uncontrollably, causing spasm. The patient will writhe and become extremely agitated. If you have ever had muscle cramps resulting from strenuous exercise (especially when you have sweat profusely), you have some idea what this feels like. Imagine having this happen all over your body, repeatedly. Diazepam (more commonly known as Valium) is a muscle relaxant.

8. Grand Mal seizure, which is highly unlikely given current conditions and lack of contributing factors (meds). Recommend diazepam 15 mg rectally as indicated in seizure management orders.

In the final stages of starvation and dehydration, the same electrolyte imbalances which can cause muscle spasm can also lead to uncontrolled firing of neurons in the brain, according to a similar mechanism. This results in seizures.

Here's another question, from Mark Steyn, found here:
http://www.suntimes.com/output/steyn/cst-edt-steyn271.html
No compelling reason to kill Terri Schiavo

"Here's a thought: Where do you go to get a living-will kit saying that in the event of a hideous accident I don't want to be put to death by a Florida judge or the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals? And, if you had such a living will, would any U.S. court recognize it?"
