I can't figure out the reference to Florida either. Isn't this story set in Georgia?

I think that's just typical WND crappy reporting. I assume they meant Georgia, but if they can't get that simple fact right, which ones do we take as gospel?

Exactly! More and more Freepers are taking stories like this as gospel and, as the saying goes, "assuming facts not in evidence". One here wants to burn down every hospice in the country. I just hope folks chill out and find out the rest of the story. If it's as reported by WND, then the judge, the granddaughter, and the hospice have a lot of explaining to do, and some litigation to deal with. Let's just wait and see the other side of it, if there is another side.

The ONLY reference to the word "Florida" is this:

In a situation recalling the recent death of Terri Schiavo in Florida, an 81-year-old widow, denied nourishment and fluids for nearly two weeks, is clinging to life in a hospice in LaGrange, Ga., while her immediate family fights desperately to save her life before she dies of starvation and dehydration.

Kindly note that the article states that the situation recalls "the recent death of Terri Schiavo in Florida." Not that it is happening IN Florida.
