Theresa Marie Schindler was born to Robert and Mary Schindler on December 3, 1963. She was the first of three children the Schindlers would have.
Terri was a shy, but comical, child who had an affinity for music, animals and the arts. She kept a small circle of friends and was dear to schoolmates, neighboring families and her own extended family.
Following high school, Terri came into her own. She developed a knack for sketching and doodling. She enjoyed outings with her friends. She was an adoptive mother to the family’s dog, Bucky.
Terri attended Catholic School while growing up and remained close to her faith throughout her life.
In 1983, Terri met Michael Schiavo at Bucks County Community College and the two began dating. He was the first romantic interest Terri had.
The couple was engaged within a few months and married a year later at Terri’s church in Southampton, Pa. She was 21.
In 1986, Terri and Michael relocated to Pinellas County, Florida and her parents followed three months later.
In 1990, at the age of 26, Terri suffered a mysterious cardio-respiratory arrest for which no cause has ever been determined. She was diagnosed with hypoxic encephalopathy – neurological injury caused by lack of oxygen to the brain. Terri was placed on a ventilator, but was soon able to breathe on her own and maintain vital function. She remained in a severely compromised neurological state and was provided a PEG tube to ensure the safe delivery of nourishment and hydration.
On March 31, 2005, Terri Schindler Schiavo died of marked dehydration following more than 13 days without nutrition or hydration under the order of Circuit Court Judge, George W. Greer of the Pinellas-Pasco’s Sixth Judicial Court. Terri was 41.
Good observation. At least, so long as they agree with the law they use to justify themselves!
But to use statutory law this way is to confess that they either don't know right from wrong, or are willing to do evil if it's legal (or if they run no legal risk). This is ironic. Until recently, -- and no doubt still so today in some jurisdictions, -- not knowing right from wrong was the LEGAL definition of criminal insanity!
The thinking is, if a person is incapable of understanding that he is committing a criminal act, he cannot be tried for the crime. He IS, however, locked away in a padded cell, so that he can't do it again.
Those who hide behind statutory law to justify immorality are candidates for that padded cell. They don't know right from wrong.
Is this going to be Dec. Dailies or special thread only? I have news about Attorney Mark Adams. He has a hearing tomorrow about his situation w/Judge Crockett Farnell and Battaglia Law Firm (cristonists).
ATTORNEY MARK ADAMS: Hearing scheduled for 12/5/2006 at 09:30 AM at Tampa, FL - Courtroom 8A, Sam M. Gibbons Courthouse, 801 N. Florida Avenue.
(after action report has been requested).
Back to the thread. Monsignor Malanowski is a great man.
Finally, my mom is doing better! Thanks for all your prayers.
highball: Which is a political agenda.
So was our war against the Hitler's eugenics program a "political agenda"? Because most of Western Civilization considers it one of the Twentieth Century's noblest acts.
A Terri supporter from out of state sent a giant bouquet of fancy flowers which served as the centerpiece of the Freeper table and were presented to the Schindlers when the gathering was over.
In our favor is that we all came together from all quarters as people with different talents and abilities. In our own ways, we shall not rest because the machine does not.
Terri changed my life. God Bless her memory.
Well, happy belated birthday to you, LFL. I was just referring to talent and ability. You possess both.
We are showing respect in memory of Terri and in my case, my admiration for her parents and siblings shall never cease. They are excellent role models for faith and strength under fire.
Elian was kidnapped right from Florida right before Easter, drugged and whisked back to Fidel for indoctrination. Janet Reno liked raids, no?
The real investigation was spiked. The person who spiked it will likely get a new position in our next governor's cabinet.
Hunger is widespread around the globe. It is wrong wherever it is occurring.
It shouldn't happen in America and remember that first, Judge Greer took Terri's rehab monies and handed them to death lawyers. Terri was robbed first.

Stop it, America.
bttt.
Some posters are quick to mention the rule of law. They are from the george greer school of thought which is the highest of insult.
So was our war against the Hitler's eugenics program a "political agenda"?
Who exactly are "the Hitler's" in your example? I don't follow that sentence.
Are you referring to Adolph Hitler? We're not talking about military goals in a war here. We're talking about every citizen's right to work towards change the laws of our nation and influence public policy. Which is by definition a political agenda.
I don't see why some people are getting so hung up on that term. I imply nothing perjoritive by it. It's simply descriptive.
HEADS UP: Floridians have four years of heinous spin to endure. I guess that was a sampling. CC was a lousy AG.
P.S. Congrats on little Highball Junior, with a birthday near to my own. God bless him.
