>>Come on you all, she just lost her husband
Are you suggesting she would have done anything differently if she hadn't? If so, what? And has she said this or is it just your opinion that she was not acting rationally? If so, what exactly do you think she did irrationally---paying attention to her website while her husband was dying, shutting off TV's in the hospital to protect patients, shutting down discussion of Schiavo, or something else? I'm not being argumentative here, just looking for clarity.
When my 47 year old father was trying to recover from heart surgery and fighting for his life, we made a decision not to tell him that one of his even younger good friends had died on the operating table from similar surgery at about the same time. Likewise, when he was extremely depressed we didn't want to tell him that one of his political heroes had committed suicide. As compelling as the Schiavo case was (is) for many of us (see, for example, Ye Shall Be As Gods ), to me it is perfectly understandable that if a loved one is terminally ill, major debates on life and death issues may not be what you need to hear at such a time.
The purpose of the posting is merely to show that sometimes there is more to the story. If people wish to continue to despise Lucianne, I'm sure she can take it. For me, she is my friend, and I never needed an explanation.
Oh Gosh,
I was just trying to sidestep the issue, not wanting to criticize her or her site at this time.
