The Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation

 

The Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation has two basic goals.  The goals of the Foundation are as follows:

 

Aims:

• Aid Terri and the Schindlers the resources that they need to keep the court from allowing Terri to die.

• Cause a change in the guardian laws that can cause a situation like Terri's. Current guardian laws can allow spouses to have TOTAL control over a loved one, and may even allow his or her death against the parents' will.

Needs:

The Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation has been created to address several immediate needs that Terri has to survive this court battle.  Her immediate needs are:

• Financial contributions to help pay for the extensive legal costs that her appeal will require.   This is Terri's greatest need.
• Support from those who believe that her life is sacred to help spread the word.   For any grass roots campaign to be successful, people have to know what is happening.   
• By writing the media about how we feel, we can encourage them to provide more coverage about Terri and spread the word even further.
• Pressure on Government Officials on two major issues.  The first, of course, is Terri's current situation.  The second is for reform of the state's and nation's guardian laws, which can exclude a child's parents from a decision which can mean life or death.

• If you recovered from brain damage caused by lack of oxygen, or are a doctor who has worked with a patient under these conditions, and can help us would you please contact us.  We need your help.

.Contact the Florida Legislators
The following is a form letter you can use in contacting the Florida Legislators and Junior Senators. We will try to have an online form programmed soon that does the work for you and are working hard to get it done quickly. In the meantime, please refer to the email list below for appropriate email addresses.
Dear Representative: In November 2002, Judge Greer of Pinellas County once again sentenced Theresa Schiavo (Terri) to die of starvation based on his opinion that Terri is in a persistent vegetative state (or PVS). On June 6, Judges Altenbernd, Fulmer and Stringer issued a decision upholding Judge Greer’s starvation ruling. Under Florida law, for Terri to be sentenced to death by starvation, a PVS condition must be in existence. In Florida, PVS is defined by statute as a "permanent and irreversible condition of unconsciousness in which there is the absence of voluntary action or cognitive behavior of any kind [and] an inability to communicate or interact purposefully with the environment." Clearly, the evidence Judge Greer relied on to make his death decision does not comply with Florida Law. Furthermore, there are more physicians on record with the court stating that Terri is not in a PVS condition than are physicians stating that Terri is in a PVS condition. More evidence contradicting Greer’s findings can be found in a sworn statement given by a noted speech pathologist declaring that Terri is definitely not in a persistent vegetative state and that she is trying to talk. If that were not enough, there are video tapes of Terri (at www.terrisfight.org) showing her responding to her family members and to commands given her by three doctors who examined her just prior to Judge Greer’s latest death verdict. THE VIDEO TAPES ARE PRESENTLY APPEARING ON NATIONAL TELEVISION. THEY ARE EVOKING OUTRAGE AMONG VIEWERS BECAUSE TERRI’S COGNIZANT CONDITION IS SO OBVIOUS These citizens, dominated by a majority of Floridians, have made their feelings known by signing upwards to 19,000 petitions denouncing Judge Greer’s starvation death order. They are indignant because they recognize that Terri Schiavo is in a disabled state, not in a PVS state. They are angry that the law of our state has been blatantly dismissed by a biased judge. I would respectfully ask for your commitment on behalf of Ms. Schiavo. Please share this information with the Governor and beseech his immediate intervention, either instructing the Attorney General to assign the case to an unbiased judge or by ordering an investigation into the injuries suffered by Terri as possible foul play. Evidence suggests that physical abuse may have caused Terri’s present disability. As a public servant of the great State of Florida, it is your duty to protect our citizens to the fullest extent of your abilities. I eagerly await your response.
