Ashes of Terri Schiavo buried

Ashes of Terri Schiavo buried 12 minutes ago

The remains of Terri Schiavo, a brain-damaged Florida woman whose fate sparked a highly politicized right-to-die battle, were buried on Monday in Florida, her husband's lawyer said.

The interment of Schiavo's ashes took place nearly three months after she died and five days after pathologists released results of an autopsy that showed her to have had massive brain damage and no hope of recovery. Her condition resulted from a collapse in 1990 that deprived her brain of oxygen.

The burial at Sylvan Abbey Memorial Park in Clearwater, Florida, was held in the presence of her husband, Michael Schiavo, some of his brothers and a priest, attorney George Felos said in a brief statement.

The autopsy results supported court findings during a long legal battle between Schiavo's parents and her husband that she was in a persistent vegetative state, meaning she could not think or feel, pathologists who conducted the autopsy said last week.

The courts consistently supported Michael Schiavo's stance that his wife would not have wanted to live in this state and should be allowed to die.

Her parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, believed she had some hope for recovery and fought for seven years to keep her alive in a campaign that attracted support from right-to-life activists, Christian evangelicals and the Vatican.

What, do they think having a priest present makes it all okay?

Might as well have "swept her ashes under the rug," considering all the tough-talk about the "renegade judges" duing the two weeks she was starved and dehydrated to death that went for naught -- tough-talk that was nothing more than typical political hot air.

"What, do they think having a priest present makes it all okay?"

They needed someone to perform the excorsism if the evil one manifested himself in Felos or MS.

Stupid priest ... Satan doesn't bother his own.

Terri was watching a fire burning one evening and said "ashes to ashes dust to dust" so that's why she's being cremated.

If Terri's ashes aren't sealed to protect against the absorption of water then Judge Greer might have the cops arrest some people.

Good. I hope this is the LAST this topic comes to FR. She's finally able to truly rest in peace away from the money-lusting parents, the media, quacks, out of control government and even her husband.

I guess the autopsy is the reason why Michael Schiavo waited until now to burry Terri. Either that or he finally burried her to make himself look like a good guy since now he looks even worse since the autopsy report came out. Little damage control i guess! Doesn't fly with me!
