I haven't been able to verify this story. Anyone have any luck finding out more about it?

In his opinion, nobody should be allowed to determine that “this person is not a living human being, so I decide when I give life or take away life. It’s a sophisticated way of murdering somebody.”

Agreed.

[eccentric]

okay, if the woman is Mexican, does her government know of this situation?

[eccentric]

ooops, .... statiing ....commnets... hopefullly...intetions, I'm jsut tired.

I like your 'accent.' :)

[presently no screen name]

Terri we have not forgotten you.




I'm touched by the warmth and strength of your statement.
Thanks.

He said it was also significant that, in spite of her condition, the woman was still “able to take water.”

Whoa! If she can "take water" as the Pastor says, and she's obviously taking water somehow or else she'd be dead, then the woman has brain function. Moreover, if she swallows the water when given to her, then killing her is murder, plain and simple.

The big question here is, is she indeed "taking water" as in swallowing it when offered.

I found out more about this case.

I reached the reporter on this story.
Jorge Mederos

He sounded very sincere and wants to see something done.
He visited the home yesterday.

He said to use his cell phone# 773-617-4712

He also gave me the Pastor's number
Pastor Espinoza 708-423-5096
I just called the pastor. Very nice man. They are planning a service in front of the home on Sunday. He told me it was okay to include his phone number for more information on the service.

The service is at 3pm, Sunday in front of the home at
3939 W. 59th Place
Chicago, IL

Please help spread this story. Perhaps any Chicago Freepers could go to the service.

Thank you and God Bless you. You are good. I am glad to hear the reporter and the pastor are on top of this. Hopefully it will attract more media attention.

I did email this story to Priests for Life.

Please add me to your ping list. Thanks!

Good for you.

Can you think of any media in Chicago that might cover this story?

I just don't know how she's lasted this long.
The pastor and reporter were very nice.

Please send this story to anyone in the media you think could help.

Good work by both of you.

I contacted worldnetdaily.com and newsmax.com (newstips), jjohnson@cnsnews.com (does Terri stories) and David Limbaugh via Newsxmax.com contact page. Maybe David Limbaugh will tell his brother Rush, or do a story on it himself.

I think besides contacting our own reps, perhaps contacting other pro-lifers, like Tom DeLay, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, Tom Tancredo, etc. might also be helpful. Perhaps they will write a bill to end this evil once and for all!!

I forgot to ask how she is getting the water. If she is swallowing or by IV.

Sorry.

[FR_addict]

Thanks alot!

I'm afraid that because it is the weekend, we may not get good coverage. So we need to contact more than our usual contacts to get someone to pick up on the story.

Any Church's in the area that might help us spread the word.

"Even the President of the US, George W. Bush, took part in the dispute, taking the side of the conservative and religious groups opposed to euthanasia." I really get tired of this purposeful lying by journalism ... the case in Florida was unConstitutional in that a judge ordered Terri's execution without the authority to do that and Federal jurisdiction to review was in question (habeas corpus) so the Congress issued a bill that settled the habeas and granted review jurisdiction for a de novo hearing, and the President signed that bill because it was the right thing to do to bring Justice into line with caselaw, not to 'side with religious conservatives'. Our nation is in a Constitutional crisis because of a judiciary that feels it is an oligarchy and wantonly disregards the humane side of Justice, mercy, in favor of protecting process that effectively grants the judiciary an untouchable ruler status.

Ping.
Also add me to any ping lists.

Since Tom DeLay helped Terri, maybe he will help now.

Terri could swallow too. This is about dehumanizing a human being based on arbitrary definitions of 'human being'. It is creeping into mainstream right out of the dehumanization of the alive unborn ... they aren't 'human enough' by the arbitrary definitions of some therefore they are not worthy of protecting their inalienable right to remain alive.

GREAT contact info. by "Calpernia" for media and government in the U.S.A., as well as other countries, including our neighbors to the north.

"We conceptualize life in the context of a perfection, and when perfection is lacking, we feel it is incomplete.”

Most profound!

How many Terri's are out there right now, suffering as she did??????

[Regulator]

does her government know of this situation?

If they did they wouldn't care.
