The Schindlers attorney said that Mrs. Schiavo is declining rapidly and a morphine drip has been administered by medical staff at her hospice to help her ease her pain.
He added, 'At this point, we would say that Terri has passed the point of no return.'
The case has been in and out of court for years and has gripped America.
It has seen the intervention of US President George W. Bush, the US Supreme Court and Florida's Governor Jeb Bush.
The Schindlers, practicing Roman Catholics, have attracted passionate support from an array of Christian conservatives, right to life, and anti abortion advocates, who have been holding vigils outside the hospice.

No keep going. You are onto something here. So basically she is being assisted in dying. How about all of those morons who have "Gone on the Record" so far as to state she will not suffer. Well why would she? She is doped up. I have been hospitalized, also on morphine.. and couldn't think, let alone speak. SO what makes her case different, other then she has been bid ridden for so long. Gosh I feel for her and her family. I wish there would be a turn of events.

The fight, apparently, has only just begun...getting laws overturned....not just in Florida, but throughout the country, will take convincing of not just senators and representatives, but apparently, at least half of America who thinks nothing's wrong with starving and dehydrating a human being to death.

If she has awareness of sensations, then she is being executed in a cruel and unusual way.Not executed. Murdered.

Schlinder's attorney saying this......
And, of course, we have been pounded with the fact that they lie, and distort. Move on now - nothing to see here.
I am sure other threads here are consoling Michael for having to go through this. Death is just such a bother isn't it?

Terri, not doubt would have done the same for us.
To: nicmarlo
This is a tipping point for the nation as a whole. A wakeup call. I for one think this will be used for good, and we will start heading in the right direction.

Unbelievable, I thought she couldn't feel any pain.....these murderers may also be using the morphine to suppress her breathing, thus hastening her death.
To: gopwinsin04
Please don't put up pictures like that. It just leads to mockery by even those on FR.
Afterall - why would any want to insinuate that Terri is the same as Jesus - just not so at all. We love Terri but she is a human not Jesus.

Morphine decreases the respirations to make the execution come more quickly.Execution: The act or an instance of putting to death or being put to death as a LAWFUL penalty. This is not an execution. It is murder.

What good is legislation if activist liberal judges ignore it? Sort of like spooning water out of a sinking boat before plugging the hole. There appears to be a GOP split now and now the GOP leadership says it does not have the votes for the "nuclear option".

"I can't figure out how they got a vein after 9 days of dehydration. The RN Cheryl Ford wrote last night the morphine was started by nebulizer. That may be the route." That would explain why she is not already dead. If they had started it last night by IV she would have already been history.
I'm surprised the arses didn't start a pic line to get it over with.
