Terri's brother, Bobby, just reported that Terri is MISSING!! He has been waiting all day to see her, he got the green light, and she's gone...

News 9 reporter said she's gone back to hospice, but the family does not know where she is and has NO CONFIRMATION.

BREAKING...

Sam... please keep us up-to-date on the AARP position... I too will send in my card if they help MS!!

Isn't Greta a lawyer as well?

[angelwings49]

Yes she is, and I think her husband is as well.

Sorry, I thought you were irritated with me. We have that settled, I hope.

George Felos has many like-minded colleagues, though I don't see that they advocate starving or dehydrating people to death.

I'm looking for case histories, ethics opinions, a reason to disbar that lunatic. Many, many times, Felos has misrepresented Terri's condition, but I don't think that is enough to file a complaint on with The American Bar Association. Do you?

One of the things about the Terri affair is that the "old geezers" in FL, as Rush Limbaugh calls them, seem to support this "right-to-die" philosophy. Many of them have convinced themselves that they will quietly get out of the way and die when their time comes so as to make it easy on their families. Of course, they won't always have that option -- some of them will lie in disability for years before death. They just don't think disabilities will happen to them but to others! In other words, many of them have no clue of what they are really "endorsing" here.

Not that I agree ... But many seniors think that because they have had a long life and know that their days are numbered .. they don't want to be a burden or have their love ones suffer till they finally die and that is the reason (IMO) they believe in the DNR

However, I wonder what they think about being starved to death like Terri was ?

What if we challenge his sanity?

Hiya, Jackie. This is the main thread (for now) where most of the people active in helping Terri are hanging out. It's a little more out of the way so it doesn't get as many disruptors. If you get a chance to go back through the last several pages of this thread you can get an idea of what everyone here is working on. There are some mighty warriors on this thread (I'm not one of them, but pitch in where and when I can).

Bless your heart for going all the way from Texas to Florida to help save Terri's life. The poster sweetliberty has a "ping" list for most of Terri's Free Republic advocates. A ping list is like a distribution list that can be used to alert everyone when there's a new thread or a new post that we need to know about. Just let sweetliberty know if you'd like to be added to her list.

Believe me, that was the first thing I searched. He's nuts!
But we have to prove it, and that isn't easy.

"We have evil from many places who are trying to kill Terri."

There is an unnaturally powerful motivation there, isn't there? I'll bet the bottom line(s) in this case is more intriguing than Kobe, Scott Peterson and Arnold all rolled into to one.

[Canticle_of_Deborah]

Yes she is.

I just e-mailed them and ( nicely) told them I would cancel mine and my husbands membership if they do.

I have read quotes here where he claimes he can crash planes and talk to coma patients.

[CindyDawg]

Where did they all go? lol

[lakey]

Yes. But that's his 1st Amendment right.

Presently, the best avenue may be that he allowed his client, Michael, to misrepresent his wife's condition, and continued the farce in court. Michael would have told his counsel about the malpractice suit.

I'm open to ideas!!!

>>>They are completely dependent on peoples' ignorance and/or indifference to pull this off.

Bingo. Hence, enter the ACLU. Hence enter the intimidation to the activists. Hence enter well...I'll leave that blank on the public board.

[meanie monster]

Wow, FR is a force to be reckoned with! I LIKE IT!

[angelwings49]

I just did the same, Cindy :) Thanks!

[sweetliberty]

Thanks Jacki, and welcome to Free Republic.

"I wonder if they have a chat room. I've been thinking today that if we could reach the right people (religious, seniors, handicapped,pro lifers etc.) netting that we might be able to draw in more support."

That is a great idea Cindy!
