Terri was admitted to Morton Plant Hospital in Clearwater, Florida on Wednesday, August 13th. Hospice did not notify Terri's family of this and they did not find out until almost 24 hours later of their daughter's whereabouts. Michael Schiavo has given instructions not to discuss Terri's condition with her family. We will update this as soon as we know more.
Glenn Beck brought this up during his radio broadcast this morning.

Thanks for your opinion from your point of view.
To: NautiNurse
I think he tried to kill her....and now he's having the State kill her.
To: NautiNurse
He got $700,00 for her REHABILITATION!!! He hasn't Gven her any REHABILITATION!! He's EVIL beyond words.
To: Ann Archy
She is kept as a prisoner with strict visitation limits controlled by hubbie.
To: ClaudeCriquelion
Well Hellllloooo Michael Schiavo!!!
There is NO ...NONE...NADA Proof that she said she didn't ever want to be kept alive. The husband probably strangled her and that's when she lost oxygen to the brain....of which Terri has more in her state than YOU do.
You really are a CRETIN.
To: oceanperch
But not in a vegetative state.

She is not "disabled" she is in a vegetative state. Would you want to be kept alive in this condition? Where you can't do anything for yourself, no dignity, nothing. There are things worse than death.

That is a matter of opinion.
One you and I do not agree upon.
To: oceanperch
I took care of my father when he was dying of cancer...we carried him to rooms and and cleaned up after him when he could not do so himself, so please don't tell me I don't know what it's like to take care of someone. But when it was time to go, I let him go with some of his dignity, because I KNOW he did not want to live that way. To keep him around because I loved him so much would have been incredibly selfish. And I loved him way too much to do that to him.

When you love someone - really love someone you want to keep them alive as long as there is there is life. Terri is not in pain - she is not suffering from an incurable disease. She is alive. The parents love her and have hope for her. The money was awarded so that she could continue to live and possibly benefit from sceientific breakthroughs. I'm reading your post again and I am getting angrier and angrier..If you really love someone, you want to do what's best for them, not what's best for you. Would you want to live like that for 13 years? I want an honest answer.

I am sorry you lost your father to a terminal illness.
Brain damage is not a terminal illness.
No matter what you or he may have done to prolong his life he would of died from the ravages of cancer.
Your father made a decision and you respected that at a time when his illness had progressed.
What is being communicated on this thread is Teri has chosen life.
My objective is to pray for Teri. I do not care about the husbands opinion or her families. Only her will to live counts. Her choice.
To: oceanperch
And you know about her will, how?

My son loves life.
He lives it to the fullest.
His motor dev. due to birth injuries has left him at the stage of a newborn in an adult body.
He chooses life.
You see Hildy your exp. with your father is very different than others who have loved ones that choose life no matter how disabled they are.
Your father had a right to choose to pass on at a stage of a terminal illness. My son chooses life due to a brain injury from birth. Very different circumstances but the bottom line is each has/had the right to choose.
To: Hildy
Yes. I honestly would.
To: oceanperch
Listen, I'm not going to debate you about your son. But your son gets to live with you, he doesn't have strangers taking care of him 24/7. Your son is disabled, he's not in a vegetative state like Teri...the situations are not the same. I saw pictures of your son at the rodeo. Teri cannot do that, can she? Would you want to live 13 years the way Teri lives. I want an honest answer.

Then that's your choice. I can't imagine anybody saying that, though. I think it's dishonest. You would want to put your family through all that? Really? I wouldn't. I choose life for the living.

Why is Teri in a facility?
She could be home with her folks if they had guardianship.
I am not going to speculate on the unknown of how my life will end.
I live each day the best I can in accordance to my Catholic faith.
Suffering to me may not have the same meaning as it does to you.
If Teri was at home being cared for by her parents she could go to a rodeo too.
To: Hildy
We again have a difference of opinion on living.
