I sent him the letter of my life ( meaning a letter so direct and absolutely filled with the truth, passionate and unrelenting, no holds barred ) a few moments ago.

"My two signs would be: HER CRIME: DISABILITY

HER PUNISHMENT: DEATH"


Great post.

Another crime she has committed: Making people uncomfortable.


People can't stand suffering. Francis Schaeffer wrote that the only two values most people in the modern Western culture can agree upon are personal Comfort and personal Security.

If you suffer in a persistent debilitative state, you not only have little hope of comfort, but you make a lot of other people uncomfortable.

I've listening to Joni Erikson Tata (sp?) a lot on the radio lately. She's a quadriplegic, and she has been protesting Terri S.'s treatment, along with other disabled people that many in our society would just as soon not deal with.

A good site to check out is http://www.notdeadyet.org/ for more on how a number of handicapped people feel about these right-to-die issues.

-- Joe

P.S. Vengeance is mine, saith the Lord. We have to work through our authorities.

P.P.S. I'm not for prolonging life at all costs. But unfortunately the mainstream press seems to be succeeding in making a lot of people think that this is the case of extremists pressing their cause. At breakfast this morning, two people in my church said, "How would you feel if your wife told you not to keep her in this condition for 11 years?" And our waitress said it's wrong for the state to keep that woman suffering.

Thanks. I usually keep these kinds of letters very brief and to the point, but these people are in dire need of information they can follow up and get a hold to, and we don't really know how much they know at this point. I think that the discussion on the floor of the Florida House on Monday evening was a pretty good indicator that they were just beginning to get some of the pertinent details, and I think the vast majority of the folks, both inside and outside of the situation, are still dangerously ignorant, especially when you have that lying POS Felos shoving his fairy looking face in front of the cameras and the cable news networlks gobbling up what he's dishing out. I'd like to find a way to make them gag on it. Meanwhile, here is the letter that I sent to the head of the hospice. Admittedly I got a little testy, but I tried to control myself. I really want these people to hear us! And these cannot be idle threats. We HAVE to back it up by being tenacious in following through.

"There are a whole lot of people out here that are finding out a great deal more about the kind of barbaric cruelty that is being engaged in your facility in the interest of facilitating the untimely demise of one Theresa Schindler-Schiavo at the greedy and self-serving behest of one Michael Schiavo and his scum-sucking, bottom feeding legal hit man George Felos. There are thousands of us that I am aware of personally, and I know that by association there are likely hundreds of thousands more, and we are ALL working to expose what is going on.

We are aware of the clear conflict of interests that exist and have existed between your institution and George Felos. We are aware that Terri was sent there when she AT NO TIME had been diagnosed with a terminal illness. We are furthur aware that Terri's apparent deterioration to this point is a direct result of the deliberate withholding of basic health care needs, of rehabilitative therapy, of music, pictures or other sensory stimulation, of reasonable time with loving family members and even of basic hygienic care. It is abundantly clear that Michael Schiavo and George Felos, for whatever unholy motives, want Terri Schiavo DEAD! Is this not obvious and does it not trouble you at this point? Have you even once stopped and asked yourself why it is so important to them that she die? And if you think that Michael Schiavo is just trying to honor the wishes of a beloved wife, you have your head buried so deeply in the sand that there isn't much hope for you. There is evidence to support the possibility that he is the one responsible for her condition in the first place. In his "devotion" to his wife, he took a mistress with whom he has been living in adultery for the past 7 years and with whom he has had one child and is expecting another. Were you aware that it wasn't until 1998, coincidentally around the same time as the inception of Schiavo's association with George Felos, that Mr. Schiavo had a sudden "recollection" that his wife had told him that she didn't want to live on life support? Have you ever read the sworn affadavit given by a nurse who was once responsible for her care? If not, I suggest you read it. It's a real eye opener. Or are you under orders from Michael Shiavo and George Felos as well not to read or listen to any outside sources of information? Following is a link to the affadavit:

http://www.cnsnews.com/pdf/2003/aff2.pdf

Do not think that we are going to go away. We are all doing our best to spread the word, not only about the attempted murder of a woman who is clearly NOT, nor has she ever been, in a vegetative state, but also for the purpose of exposing every person and institution who is complicit in this unspeakable horror! There is no person of conscience who could examine the facts of this case and believe that causing the death of this woman by starvation and dehydration, could be an act of mercy by any stretch of the imagination. It is an act so cold and brutal that for any of us to subject even a sick dog or cat to such a death would be grounds for criminal prosecution. Convicted serial killers on death row receive more humane treatment than Terri is receiving at the hands of her "loving" husband (in name only).

Please do not underestimate the power of the people. We see what is happening and we are outraged! And don't think that if Terri suddenly has a bad night and doesn't wake up in the morning it will be over. There are many thousands of us commited to making sure that those responsible are brought to justice and that such a travesty NEVER happens again. Bear in mind that we, by the grace of God, were able to move the hand of Congress literally overnight, and there are many more now than then who are aware of Terri's perilous plight and have joined the fight.

I hope that you are a person of conscience who has gotten caught up in a very unfortunate situation and will now take a stand to do the right thing. Enough is enough."

"And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea." (Mark 9:42)

Regards,

That's exactly what we were discussing. We know part of the reason why, that evil truly dominates, but the family needs some way of upping their PR.

"I prayed for her last night and then dreamed about her also. I absolutely can't remember the details of the dream though. "

Did you also wake up with a renewed sense of what you were helping do is the right thing as I did? Maybe our dreams are God's way of helping us keep going and reassuring us that we are doing the right thing?

Last night on one of these threads, something was mentioned , I believe even a news article, of possible criminal investigations being started based on the ADA. Anyone know the link/post or have a update on that

I am afraid that this Wolfson is nothing more than an extension of Felos-Schiavo-Greer. How can we fight this appointment of a GAL?

These people just proved what we already know: as a whole the American people are clueless and too lazy to study the facts of a case. In fact, many do not want to be bothered with the facts.

Bay News 9 report: Felos said the money is 55 to 65K. "They are trying to save money for her funeral." No comment by me required.

I thought they were cremating her. Much cheaper than a regular funeral, not to mention get rid of the evidence. They are so full of sh!t!

Great letter. How about sending a copy of it, including the link to the nurses statement-to Sean Hannity, O'reily, Fox News and the rest of the media . Your letter covers all the basic facts and controversies-the public needs to be informed of these controversies. Again-Great letter!

tbb, I haven't been able to keep up on all the posts, but I did do a little bit of digging on Wolfson (late last night, so my brain was a bit foggy), but I didn't see any connection with hospice. Do you remember where you heard/saw that?

But Felos and Schiavo have never said HOW MUCH he would collect from insurance on his "wife." That is not public information.

Is Schiavo staying at the hospice around the clock now, or does anyone know? Maybe the mother-in-law TO-BE is relieving him.

Heavenly Father, we thank You that you have provided mealtime for refreshment of body, as well as refreshment of soul. Bless the family fellowships this hour, I pray ... may there be an awareness of how blessed we are, and may we be aware of how blessed the Schindlers want to be ~ we ask, again and again, Father, that You would reunite this family. Write words upon their hearts ... May the Lord watch between me and thee, while we are absent, one from another. In Jesus Name, Amen ...
