They could've titled that better. Reminds me of "Mother of Disabled Child Charges Aide With Battery".

The Finn family still condiders the wife of Hugh a murderer and still are fighting the "life' insurance claim - that bitch.

As much as Terri dying tore me to pieces emotionally, Hugh Finn was much worse for me. His wife now makes a living, doesn't she, from speaking about brain disorders? She really was some kind of wife. The kind you never want to have....

...to the life of someone else above his political career.

Would Jeb Bush have declared he had done all he could if this were a member of his family, instead of Terri Schiavo?

My belief is that he could have, should have, taken Terri into protective custody. I base that on the highly suspicious judgement in this case, including the adulterous husband (shacked up with another woman by whom he has two children), his "right-to-death", very loony lawyer, Greer, a warped excuse for a judge, IMO, and the tie-ins to the hospice and other Florida judges, etc.

Acknowledging the separation of powers, when a State Governor, sworn to protect his people, learns that, through evil means, one of them will be starved to death, an honorable Governor will step in and take over.

Feel free to set me straight if I'm wrong.

Jeb Bush could and should have sent in troops to the killing hospice, and rescued Terri. A murder was being committed under color of law, and he chose not to stop it.

Well hello Florida newbie. Odd that you get so much pleasure from pouring salt in open wounds, but then your stilted post smacks of an agenda. Friend of Mikey or Georgieboy? Give it a rest? Bwahahaha, how ironic of you, how very mikeyish ... remember how he insisted she needed to be allowed to go on to her rest?

I don't see the medical connection to these two cases.

This guy had some nerve damage. Nerves overtime do have a chance to heal themsevles.

A major portion of Terri's cerebal cortex had disintegrated. There was empty space were most of her Cerebellum used to be. X-rays of her brain showed this. Saying this could heal itself would be like saying you had a arm chopped off, but believed a new one would be able to grow back.

Terri Schiavo is suffering no more. That is far to pat. You could apply this standard to almost anyone whose physical condition is problematical, but it cannot be an excuse to cause them to die in anguish from dehydration. Starvation and dehydration is a 'peaceful and euphoric' death only to those who are in fact dying and their systems are shutting down. For a woman like Terry, whose health was good other than her nerve damage, it was an excruciating and prolonged death.

Don't you people believe in an afterlife?

Yes, some of us, at least, do. What's that got to do with another human being(s) deciding when our life on earth should end? Just imagine that I could have an input on whether you should continue living on this earth...or dying, when, hopefully, you will have no more suffering.

Terri Schiavo's husband, who we must remember as choosing to live and love another woman and have a family with her, got the ball rolling to end his wife's life. Greer bought his "proof" of her wishes and attorney Felos couldn't have been more delighted to assist, IMO.

Most of those who participated in ending Terri Schiavo's life are, in fact, people she never knew.

For you and those who think the same way, you are willing to have strangers decide if you should live or die.

Have I misunderstood you?

"Imagine the hell she went through when her husband visited her in private. I'd hate to know the what he spoke to her. He HATED her and wanted her DEAD."
````
There WAS such a difference in her pictures AFTER M. Schiavo got fully custody of Terri = $'s.
Packing her off to die, no sunlight, no conversation, no nothin. Not medication when she was ill. Day after day he did this to her and its amazing that her parents got responses from her at all. We watched as PURE EVIL took place. Husbands "right" to kill his wife.

Here's all I need to know about this case. All of her blood relatives wanted her to receive treatment and to be kept alive, and her husband wanted her dead.

Are you saying you're in a better position than her own parents to know what was best for Terri?

You should be ashamed of yourself.

I remember what happened. The state cops should have had orders to overcome the local cops with force, if necessary.

"Don't you people believe in an afterlife? Terri Schiavo is suffering no more. Let her go..."

With no lessons learned? Not hardly.
There are Judge Greers and M. Shiavo's out there embolden by Terri's murder rather than under rocks where they belong.

Jeb Bush for president.

IMO he could have saved Terri Schiavo's life. I wouldn't vote for him to be a dog-catcher. And while I'm at it, regardless of my twelve years of Catholic education, Bishop Lynch (St. Petersburg, FL) took an anti-life stance in this case.

To add insult to injury, Michael Schiavo and Jody Centonze were married in a Catholic Church, once he won his case to have Terry, his wife, starved to death.

My, my. What to think.
