One of the posts said that the Schindlers left Philadelphia for FL in 1986. Terri was already married to Schiavo by then, and they moved with the Schindlers. Schiavo presumably came from the Philadelphia area too, for they were married at a young age -- 20 or so. He could be from Ohio. Isn't this an Italian name?
Apparently after he came to FL, Schiavo became a respiratory "nurse." I put "nurse" in quotation marks because I cannot imagine this monster in "healtyh care."
And what can we do now? Her feeding will stop in a week. National media are avoiding this story. The disabled are important only in securing votes prior to elections when all the candidates boast of what they have done for the disabled. And it's all a pack of lies!
There is a Scioto, OH, not quite the same as "Schiavo." Probably no relationship there
If I'm right and Michael Schiavo is related to Mary Schiavo (cousin) not sister, then the media won't touch this because per her web site bio, Mary Schiavo is on a Homeland Security committee, was in the FAA and she's got a zillion connections with the BIG BOYS.
I don't know for sure if they are related but she was born in Pioneer, Ohio which is in her bio at her web site. Schiavo is an Italian name, you're correct.
You'd think Terri's family would know who Michael's extended relatives are. I have know way to confirm or deny they are related.
If politics is involved, then the best we can do is "out" the legislator who wrote the exit protocol statutes. Who lobbied them to do so? They have no safeguards whatsoever. Judge Greer, Felos, Hospice and Michael Schiavo know that. THOSE STATUTES SHOULD BE INVALIDATED & rewritten with safeguards and Terri's death sentence should be suspended.
