If God decided that Terri should go home to Him at this hour, no man could stop it.

Schiavo has got to be the most vile creature ever to draw a breath. The most shameless, in your face murdering dog in U.S. history.I tried to find someone in history to compare him to, but failed. He is truly in a class of one.

If Kervorkian is rotting in jail - THANK GOD - why aren't the medical personnel who are murdering Terri also going to rot in jail.

Well, why don't we let Him decide when to take her home. And in the meanwhile, we just offer her the same courteousy that we all receive while waiting our appointed hour... food and water. sheesh

I am sorry to say, yes I think we have become that weak and fearful, or at least many of us have. I live in the UK or I would also be outside the hospital.
I think it is fear of taking action, from the Governor down, that is the failure in this case. Good men doing nothing. Out of fear? Her family must go get Terri what are they afraid of? Terri will die in any case if they stand by and wait for "law" to save her.
Proverbs 29:25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.

A lot of things are wrong with the stories now out. One group claims Terri never got therapy, yet this story claims she was getting it 6 years after her brain injury. Does that mean she'd been receiving it for 6 years? If so, someone was paying for it, as Medicare/Medicaid will only pay for such services for so long... the individual has to be shown to be making progress. While most therapists can document progress made with just about anything, to keep it up for 6 years with no more achievements than being able to swallow boggles the mind.
Having worked with some pretty low-functioning individuals (and their family members) I know how hard it is for them to let go of the idea that there could be a miraculous healing (and that would be the ONLY way at this point that Terri would improve).
One father even held on, hoping for the day that brain transplants would be doable so that his son could be normal again - he couldn't be convinced that following a brain transplant the body would no longer be his son but that of whoever's brain was transplanted.
If God wishes to work a miracle he'll work it in the next couple of weeks - hanging on for 20 more years in hopes of one isn't going to change His thoughts on the matter.

I agree with you. But God can also circumvent any nutrition that she receives. He can and will determine when it is her time to die, for He is with her now.

Schiavo has got to be the most vile creature ever to draw a breath. The most shameless, in your face murdering dog in U.S. history. Would you feel the same way if you knew she had requested not to be kept alive under these conditions? (I know we cannot know, but it seems many here disagree with her right to have that decision carried out even if she did make that decision)

Starving a person to death is murder.
To: Pan_Yans Wife
I'm wondering why a large group of people don't just enter the facility and remove her to a safe place. Aside from 1st degree criminal trespass, what crime would there be in this? Trespassors could then plead the necessity defense. Is there an army guarding her or something?

There are police stationed at her door. I assume that they will not allow anyone to enter, without permission from Schiavo and his attorney.

What will they do, shoot? They might be as upset as people pushing in. It will be too late once she's gone. How will history view this?
Does this woman WANT to live?

This is court sanctioned murder. Starving someone to death is not the usual outcome of "pulling the plug".
I can see the next step coming.
Retarded kids. They'll never have a normal life, so we might as well........
Isn't it about time for Americans to tell the "Judges" to go to hell?

You'll have to ask others why they do not storm the hospice and take Terri by force.
I am not able to travel to Florida, but I wish them all luck.
I suspect NO ONE will try this. And, from what I have read, I cannot find anything that says Terri's family wishes for that to happen.

The more I know men, the more I love animals. The same could be said about women by men and it would still be wrong.
Certain people are evil, their gender has nothing to do with it.
