Here's the original court order to which I was referring:(see page 10, second to the last paragraph)

I've read that court order. It says that Mike the Murderer was authorized to proceed with the discontinuance of "said artificial life support for Theresa Marie Schiavo". To what "said artificial life support" does the order refer? In reviewing the contents of the order all references to "artificial life support" are the movie about the case of Karen Ann Quinlin and something about not wanting to be "hooked to a machine". NONE of them were about a simple feeding port and tube into which food is injected by syringe a few times a day. There were no machines - she was hooked to nothing. If the case had been properly reviewed as ordered by the Congress of the United States and not just re-rubber-stamped, this may have come up and Terri's life would have been protected. If the activist judges had not overturned the wishes of the citizens of the State of Florida by striking down "Terri's Law" then her life would have been protected.
Here's your "artificial life support". Does this look anything like being permanently "hooked to a machine"? Note, the tube was normally taped against Terri's body and only connected to a syringe at meal time.
Are these considered "artificial life support"? If Terri had received the appropriate therapy and had been able to normally receive nutrition orally - like Ensure products through a soda straw sometimes administered by medical staff - would that also be considered "artificial life support" and would it have been OK to have removed it in order to kill Terri?
But the court order I posted is the final court order that lead to Terri's death. It did not order the discontinuance of "artificial life support" it ordered that she be dehydrated/starved to death.
