Good job, FR_addict!

[TAdams8591]

If she can drink water and swallow it is an indication she can eat by mouth and he's starving/murdering her.

Call the local police and the Department of Social Services.

Calpernia has an exhaustive list of media contacts at reply #7 on this thread

The family wants MEDIA ATTENTION. Please read this excerpt from blogs for Terri:

"Martinez suffered a debilitating stroke a year ago and her husband signed a "Do Not Resuscitate" order that led to the disconnection of her feeding tube. She is able to consume liquids through her mouth and, so far, has survived for thirty days without food.

Under "normal" circumstances her situation would have gone unnoticed had it not been for the intervention of a pastor of the Hispanic Evangelical Church. Her family also opposes the husband's decision.

====> I spoke to the article's author, Jorge Mederos. He said the family feels "powerless" and has called the media without response. "No one is paying attention," he said. "The family is planning a protest tomorrow or over the weekend."

If she can "take water" why not milk or Metrecal or whatever?

[russesjunjee]

Its wrong to starve people to death...period.

I don't care if they are cognoscente or not...whether they can eat or not...whether they have or have not had therapy.

It is wrong and evil to starve a human being to death.

How low has our nation sunk that people can no longer see this truth?

We sit and discuss the patient's condition for hours when it doesn't really matter at all. We either starve people to death or we don't.

I vote for WE DON'T!

[Fred Nerks]

Bottom line, I agree with you.

[russesjunjee]

When will it be time for "us" to be in the room?

When someone tries to off one of your family members?

It's time for every American to be in the room right now. If we don't stop this hog wash dead in its tracks we are going to be facing the same euthanasia nightmare that Europe is right now.

In case you haven't figured it out the death ghouls who destroyed Europe with their death culture are the very same ghouls who came here and lobbied to have food and water turned into medical treatment while we all had our heads in the sand.

The euthanasia movement in this country is subversive. It is directly undermining our strength and solidarity as a nation, and it should be stopped immediately. Too bad our elected officials are caving in to the death lobby instead of protecting our country like they were elected to do to begin with.

And doubly too bad that American citizens are waltzing blindly into the trap that the death mongers have laid for them.

They have a welltested method of carrying out their agenda. Its called gradualism. They move very slowly and in small increments so that the people won't see the danger until its too late.

It was working fabulously for them until Terri came along and woke about five million of us up.

[TAdams8591]

Very much agreed.

Excellent post!

Sent e-mails to Chicago papers, WSJ, New york Post and Drudge.

[Wampus SC]

I don't care if she's from Mexico, the north pole or the Moon. It's still wrong.

[maine-iac7]

Whahhhhh. Cry me a river. That Mexican family should have been seeking their succour in their homeland...and NOT in the Americans' homeland

I reread the article after I read your remarks - am I missing something?

I know it says they are Mexican but I didn't see where they said they were illegals?

If not, then following your reasoning, unless you are full blood Native American - you're not in your "homeland" either...

[Wampus SC]

Since the story apparently checks out, I'll post the talk show list in a minute. I've got the usual suspects queued up to be faxed again, as soon as more details become available. That's what I'll be mostly doing this time.

I'm going to FReepmail several who I seem to remember being able to speak Spanish, in case they're needed.

Thanks for sending the alert.

I wonder why she was at home in this condition? Was it because facilities refused to keep caring for her on monetary grounds? Did they, perhaps, want to 'let her go" back a years ago and the husband wouldn't allow it and took her Home to take care of her?

How did he do it? With a comatose mom in the living room and all the care that would involve for one person - who, presumably, would also have to work - how much help did he have?

What adverse effects would it have on the little children to see their mom in this condition and the things that have to be done to her to care for her? And if, presumably, the poor woman could go like this for decades, what would that daily situation do to their lives?

How much help was friends, family, church giving?

I'm not agreeing with not feeding her - I just wonder if we should think of the strain this must've put on the husband - who has to be father and mother and breadwinner and caretaker of a patient that usually has several professional caretakers - plus the heartbreak of it being someone he loves?

Also - this newspaper article got so much information wrong about Terri - for ex: "She has been in a persistent vegetative state after suffering a hear attack caused by a sudden drop in her body’s potassium levels, brought on by a strict weight-loss diet." - I can't help but wonder if everything else is factual...or perhaps a reporter jumping the gun for a by-line with a 'topical' story.

I would first like to know all the particulars of the case - just how much daily help was the husband getting - and just why she hasn't been in a care facility for the past year? Should she not be in one?

[maine-iac7]

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.

Does anyone know if the pastor = or any pastor - and how many, if any, family members and friends and church people have been daily helping the family?
