And Judge Greer DID know what he was neglecting, when he allowed this:
“Violations of Florida Statutes against Terri Schiavo
744.3215 Rights of persons determined incapacitated.
(1) A person who has been determined to be incapacitated retains the right:
(a) To have an annual review of the guardianship report and plan.
(VIOLATED Her husband/guardian has failed to file such plans for a number of years. During the years in which he DID submit the required plan, he entered NONE as his plan of action.)
(b) To have continuing review of the need for restriction of his or her rights.
(VIOLATED The guardian courts have not required her husband/guardian to file such reports mentioned above and no consistent continuing review has taken place because of that.)
(c) To be restored to capacity at the earliest possible time.
(VIOLATED Terri Schiavo has not received therapy since prior to the 1992 medical malpractice settlement in her favor which was intended to facilitate such therapy.)
(d) To be treated humanely, with dignity and respect, and to be protected against abuse, neglect, and exploitation.
(VIOLATED deliberate acts of omission [including humane care and food and water] are considered felony abuse under the law.)
(e) To have a qualified guardian.
(VIOLATED her husband/guardian is no longer qualified for his failure to comply with Florida law requiring annual review of guardianship, failure to properly maintain the property of the ward, failure to comply with the wards retained rights to necessary services and living in open adultery which is a misdemeanor under Florida law.)
(f) To remain as independent as possible, including having his or her preference as to place and standard of living honored, either as he or she expressed or demonstrated his or her preference prior to the determination of his or her incapacity or as he or she currently expresses his or her preference, insofar as such request is reasonable.
(VIOLATED Terri Schiavo is wrongfully confined to a Hospice facility and further confined to a single room without social interaction, stimulation and human company.)
(g) To be properly educated.
(VIOLATED Terri has not received speech therapy which could enable her to communicate more effective and to manage table food. She has not received help in learning any other protocol (such as blinking) to assist her in communicating more effectively.)”
I HAVE MORE - MUCH MORE!!!!
If he really was Christian, he would not use the attack and ridicule method to convince other Christians of any incorrect actions he/she felt they were taking.
These Atheist Bible quoters usually show their real intent, and lack of morals/character as they continue to post. I suggest that a full reading of this poster's comments, from the beginning of the thread shows that this is not a "Christian, concerned about his fellow FReepers".
The recent instances of people coming out of comas and "persistent vegetative states", should give pause to anyone as they look back at the situation with Teri.
I can think of no greater terror than being in situation in which you may be able to hear people planning on ending your life, while you can't physically articulate a "please, please, don't kill me!" response.
