NATIONWIDE FREEP FOR TERRI! On October 10th, this Friday, I am asking people to do a sign freep for Terri. Wherever you are, display a sign that says "SAVE TERRI", and include the "WWW.TERRISFIGHT.ORG" info. Stand on the corner, put it in your car, on a t-shirt, anything. Get a prayer vigil together. Please, I am begging people to do this. It will give folks a chance to do something in addition to the phone calls and e-mails. I don't want Terri to starve. I don't want her to suffer and die, and her family to suffer too. I have already contacted some media in my area, and do the same in yours. As well as the national ones. Especially Glenn Beck. I don't care if you are just standing on a street corner by yourself for 20 minutes.....do something!

I sent an email to some 20 people I know and told them about Terri; only three even replied, all sympathetic. The others did not even acknowledge receipt of the email. None of these emails were in FL.

Please ping your lists to visit terrisfight.org. She's got less than ten days to live. WE NEED FREEPERS TO INCREASE PUBLIC AWARENESS IN THE NATION and VERY IMPORTANT: TO GET MEDIA ATTENTION. It's not too late. There's a federal court hearing on Oct. 10th. We are backup.
Florida freepers can handle the legislature and Gov. Bush.

There's a flyer at terrisfight.org. Not a bad idea to print and copy that up this week.

potassium imbalance. loss of oxygen to her brain. Even so, she's here 13 years later. The flash movies of her are very revealing. Is it any wonder hubby won't allow any camera equipment in her "private cell" at the Hospice facility? Pictures are worth a thousand words.
To: supercat
Unfortunately, Hospice offers "direct cremation" straight to the crematorium & hubby's going for that option. There would be no autopsy. Cause of death would be starvation-dehydration though and that doesn't require a medical examiner to figure out.
We've still got options but thet 10-10-03 federal hrg will determine what freepers may need to do next to help Terri. If Judge Lazzara sides with Terri, she gets to live. We don't know yet how Judge Lazzara will rule. That's why we are continuing to freep for her.

For ink deprived freepers. Great sign!
It would make a nice BADGE-TAG at 300 pixels. Anybody want to make this into a name tag?
To: syriacus
Your re-size is perfect for a button-badge. Perfect with a piece of laminate from any office store. Great work by the original freeper artist.

Terri.
In reading more, this is incredible. I watched the videos on the linked website; Terri's not a veg, and this after at least a decade of receiving no therapy. She smiles, her eyes light up and can move her head to watch objects, she recognizes her mother; she's no vegetable.
She would feel and know every day of the deliberate starvation for 10-14 days.
I don't know how the family, doctors, nurses, and friends could bear it. How could they eat or drink during that time, knowing Terri was slowly being starved to death - and they can't bear it so that's why they're fighting to save her life! It won't bother the judge or the husband, they have their own agendas, but they should be required to watch Terri's videos every day while they are killing her, if they get their way.
Being brain-dead, no chance at all, is one thing, but that's not Terri's case. Even with therapy, it's not known how far she can be rehabed, but she's still there. And we should all think how we would like to be in Terri's position with a suspected husband who wants to pull the feeding tube knowing she's alert enough to feel the 10-14 days of starvation pains.
We put our own terminally ill pets down painlessly with shots, and yet the court would allow such a cruel and deliberate death for a HUMAN who is cognizant and not even terminally ill? What's the agenda here?
It's been a long time, but she's still holding in there.
I sent a e-mail to the governor and also asked how he would feel if it were his daughter.
From Terriswebsite:
"Since receiving a $1.2 million medical malpractice award on behalf of his wife, Schiavo has provided only subsistence care for her and, based on affidavits included with the Schindlers' suit, allegedly forbidden medical professionals from providing his wife with any therapy or rehabilitation. He is currently allowing her to receive limited medical treatment for a severe infection under a court order."
He wants her dead, no therapy, and her medical records from the early morning she was brought in to the hospital show bone fractures. Just look around on Terri.
