People finally had stories on Terri -- after her extermination! Now we have Dr. Frist saying that the judges acted properly in Terri's fight! He will retire in 2006 and hopefully return to Nashville to treat patients and not try to be a politician.
This time, it's Georgia, and yes, another HOSPICE!!

Shiavo case revisited in Georgia Mae Magouirk…not comatose …not vegetative
…not terminal
Why is Hospice LaGrange, Ga. withholding nourishment?
(LaGrange, Georgia)
Mae Magouirk is being withheld nourishment and fluids and the provisions
of her Living Will are not being honored at the Hospice-LaGrange, (1510
Vernon Street, LaGrange “Troup County” Georgia, 706-845-3905) a subsidiary
of the LaGrange Hospital in LaGrange Georgia. Her family is desperately
seeking to save her life before she dies of malnourishment and dehydration.
Mae Magouirk IS NOT comatose and she IS NOT vegetative. She is not terminal!
Despite these facts the Hospice and Beth Gaddy (706-882-9124), a school
teacher at LaGrange’s Calloway Middle School and granddaughter of Mae
Magouirk have been denying her proactive nourishment or fluids (via a nose
administered feeding tube or fluids via an IV) since March 28 without prior
legal consent; against the wishes of her Living Will and against the wishes
of Mae Magouirk’s closest living next of kin. Mae Magouirk’s next of kin
are: Mr. A. B. McLeod (Her Brother 256-236-1331) and Mrs. Lonnie Ruth
Mullinax (Her sister 205-408-7598) both of nearby Anniston, Alabama.
Under Georgia law, unless a medical durable power of attorney is in place,
your closest living next of kin are stipulated to make all medical
decisions. When Mae Magouirk’s closest living next of kin lodged a
complaint with Hospice LaGrange’s in-house attorney Carol Todd
(706-882-1411) last Thursday, March 31, Ms. Todd checked Mae Magouirk’s
case file and upon examination of both documents discovered that Beth Gaddy
DID NOT have the durable medical power of attorney for Mae Magouirk and
upon closer examination of Mae Magouirk’s Living Will ascertained that
fluids and nourishment were ONLY TO BE WITHHELD if she was either comatose
or vegetative. SHE IS IN NEITHER STATE!!!
Nor is Mae Magouirk terminally ill. Her local LaGrange, Ga. cardiologist,
Dr. James Brennan (706-812-4308) and Dr. Raed Aqel, (205-934-9999) a highly
acclaimed interventional cardiologist at the nationally renowned University
of Alabama-Birmingham Medical Center have determined that Mae Magouirk’s
aortic dissection is contained and not presently life threatening.
Two weeks ago, Mae Magouirk’s aorta had a dissection and she was
hospitalized in the LaGrange Hospital in LaGrange, Ga. Her aortic problem
was at first determined to be severe and she was admitted in the intensive
care Unit. Her granddaughter, Beth Gaddy, a teacher at the Calloway Middle
School in LaGrange, stated that she held Mae Magouirk’s medical power of
attorney and thus invoked said powers against the wishes of Mae Magouirk’s
closest living next of kin by having her moved to Hospice-LaGrange. While
at Hospice-LaGrange, Beth Gaddy stated that her wishes were for no
nourishment for Mae Magouirk v Probate Judge Donald Boyd (706) 883-1690)…
Court CASE NUMBER: Estate 138-05
Attorney for saving Mae’s life: Jack Kirby, Kirby & Roberts, (706) 884-2992***
