Governor Jeb Bush Weighs In.
In response to more than 27,000 emails asking for his intervention in the Terri Schiavo case, Governor Jeb Bush has issued a letter to Judge George Greer recommending that a Guardian ad Litem be appointed to Terri and that her medical treatment continue. Mr. Bush urged Judge Greer not to initiate an "exit protocol" for Terri. Read it here.
Terri's husband had petitioned the courts to halt medical treatment for massive infections on Monday. Today, Tuesday August 26, 2003, Judge Greer denied this petition.
A hearing is scheduled for September 11, 2003 to determine a date when Terri's feeding tube is removed. In the meantime, the attorney for Terri's parents has filed a motion for immediate therapy.
We still need your petitions to the Governor. Judge Greer has told the press that he is "not inclined to appoint a Guardian ad Litem". Your voice is still needed!!
