I bet he could move up that 6:45PM starting time if he had a little motivation.Welcome, Lauren. But is this correct, they are not starting until 6:45 PM tomorrow?? That is awful!
To: dawn53
The moratorium appears to deal with "hearsay testimony" cases where the family does not all agree. The governor has to act. And then the governor can only call a 15 day halt. This will not affect the "living will" people at all.

Yes, the political events in motion appear like they will stop the process in mid-maiming. Unless a miracle occurs. What a nightmare, but it will at least thrust the ugliness of these dehydration deaths before the world. Whether that will then lead to a backlash promoting quick euthanasia is yet to be seen. I hope not!
To: MeeknMing
The press (and 99% of the liberals) are desperate that this NOT become (nor labelled!) a "right-to-life" issue since THAT invokes sympathy against their precious abortion issue.

Yes, he not only initiated it, but he can just call it off so he can hardly blame the court. What is happening now to Michael is the modern equivalent of being sentenced to the pillory. Had he any sense he would have accepted the offers to "ransom" Terri long ago; money would not be the object. He seems to hate Terri's guts... why??? Did they have a verbal feud way back when, he socked her upside the whatever, and she got into her current state?
To: HiTech RedNeck
I understand that, but I was replying to this statement in a previous post:
It appears that a more "global" (long-affecting) law would be MORE IMPORTANT to the millions of seniors in FL. See, a single-issue law can be ignored. A law affecting EVERY (potential) senior who MIGHT become hooked to a feeding tube, with relatives eager to suck their blood/money as a death-threat IS important to the legistlation in FL. (And, in everything) the number of people affected determine how the legistlators vote.

Wow, your interpretation seems to make sense upon further reading. So Jeb has 15 days to issue a stay for Terri's Gr**r-imposed-death-sentence verdict, but the stay could be indefinite until revoked by said Governor? Hallelujah! I misread it the first time thinking the stay itself expired after 15 days.
Praying that Terri holds on with no lasting effects of this barbaric ordeal through the Senate vote tonight and the reinsertion of her g-tube!
To: supercat
Though if Terri does survive this ordeal I don't think it would be too long before Michael tries to kill her some other way. I hope this ends up with Michael pilloried so hard he heads for Timbuktu and becomes a buddhist monk. (Well OK, not buddhist. But you get the picture.)
To: Graymatter
When will someone ever put the truth to this lie that she wasn't "comatose" and (beyond all materialistic explanation) still isn't, at least of last night? Any normal mortal subjected to such a treatment as she would be fully unconscious by now, sleeping like Rip Van Winkle, no signs of "reacting to her mother." I would like to believe that the tens of thousands of prayers aimed her way are actually DOING something. A veritable army of angels ministering to her.

I hope that's only the "old" schedule.
To: HiTech RedNeck
That's what I'm hoping, too.

When I called his office today they were downright rude to me.
Whose office do you mean -- Hannity or Dr. Dobson?
To: JulieRNR21
BUMP for action and hang in there Terri
To: Lauren BaRecall
If the Senate approves a different version that the House, this cannot be completed today. Bush must intervene without waiting for all the i's and t's, or the kidneys will have shut down. This is unconscionable to drag this out while Terri is dying. It wins no political points with me.
To: Theodore R.
Oh, you must have meant Jim King, not Hannity or Dobson.
To: HiTech RedNeck
A veritable army of angels ministering to her. The way I see it her husband has been trying to kill her for 13 years. The very fact that she is alive at all, much less able to respond to people, is indeed a miracle.
God is indeed watching over Terri, as are angels.
