I guess if she's the ex-Mrs. Felos, her ex rid himself of the drag of her personal attachment.
oh, my--what a mess. Poor Terri!
Dear Kimberly,
My name is Tom Brodersen. I’m Pat’s office manager and paralegal, and have been involved in this case for two and a half years, with Pat. It seems like we’re always doing a Chinese fire drill in this case, with so much happening on an emergency basis that there is seldom time to look ahead and anticipate the next day. We have a couple of nurses who are always ready to help with records examination, multiple doctors who apparently feel honored to be consulted where Terri is concerned, and others from just about every field who feel the same way. We are blessed, you see, with a wealth of allies, all talented, caring people (like yourself, I’m sure… after all, the average person just coasts through life, stopping only to change the channel). I’ll pass this on to Pat, and if we develop a need for more help, I’ll keep you in mind, Thanks so much for your caring concern.
Tom
Terri was at death’s door on Saturday. She was transported from Hospice to Morton Plant hospital, but was apparently turned away without treatment. We can only surmise that Michael refused to authorize treatment. This is after being discharged before she was fully stabilized twice before. The good new is, since we filed a federal lawsuit, she is getting treatment at hospice, and is doing much better now. She is more responsive than ever.

Dear Tom:
What a kind e-mail! After doing a lot (and I mean a lot!) of reading this weekend, I can see that the Schindlers are surrounded by talented, caring people. Of course, things are crazy now but when you slow down please feel free to contact me and my friends at Free Republic which include writers, paralegals, attorneys, teachers and on and on.
I hesitate to ask you for news of Teri, but we are all so worried about her making it through the weekend. Many of us have been in almost constant prayer, as the Lord has truly laid Terri, her family and all of you on our hearts so strongly. Is she okay? If you'd rather not comment, I understand. Please tell the Schindlers they are so often in our thoughts each day and that we are at their disposal as well.
May God bless you all richly in these difficult days.
Kimberly
"On July 5, 1988, the Palm Harbor Library officially opened its doors for business. Dedication of the building was on Sunday, September 17, 1988. Jeannette was there along with Congressman Michael Bilerakis, State Senator Kurt Kiser, County Commissioner George Greer, Chairman of the PHCSA Dale Belcher, and Virginia Grigg, chief of the Library Development Bureau for the State of Florida. " from palm harbor library site. FV
What wonderful news!! Thanks for finding out and letting us know.
How the heck can two men who apparently haven't been stricken with a chronic illness be objective in this case? Judge Greer has no perspective whatsoever to evaluate what it's like to be disabled or chronically ill.
I'm sticking to my theory. When Greer was County Commissioner, something happened and Felos is holding it over Greer's head. What if Terri is just the first, unjustifiable "exit protocol" because men in good health deem it's best? It you can't do yoga or run a marathon, you're not worth much. HERE IT IS: Judge George Greer,By BILL LEVASQUE © St. Petersburg Times, published April 28, 2001
Pinellas-Pasco Circuit Judge George Greer is a rarity in two respects.
He is a former county commissioner who later won an unopposed election to the circuit bench, a seldom-used road to the judiciary.
And he boasted in 1986 that he was the first Pinellas commissioner in history to finish a 26.2-mile marathon.
Greer, 59, is a well-respected judge who consistently scores high in polls by lawyers rating judges on their judicial knowledge.
He is also the judge who ruled that Michael Schiavo could remove the feeding tube that had kept alive his wife, Terri Schiavo.
"He's diligent, fair and very astute about the law," said attorney Jay Hebert. "He's a very quiet guy. But he knows what he's doing."
Greer is a native of Brooklyn who moved to Florida when he was 4. A Southern Baptist, his mother was a housewife, and his father worked in title insurance.
He earned an undergraduate degree from Florida State University and his law degree from the University of Florida, making him a Gator and a Seminole.
Greer was a zoning lawyer before narrowly winning a seat on the Pinellas County Commission, where he served eight years. He was elected to the circuit bench in 1992."
FV SAYS: Well, there's no mention that he's a moral man, that he has family values or that he is a compassionate jurist. Sounds like he's in lawyers pockets which is why they give him awards. Whatta guy. He's a prostitute on the bench and what the lawyers want, they get.
