I have just finished reading the same laws. Maybe this is the avenue that needs to be taken now that her feeding has been resumed. It states any interested party may request that the guardian be removed. Well, aren't we interested parties? Hmmmmmmmmm

There was a link posted by Annie03 at post #963. This is a hopeful article. I hadn't seen it before other than to hear some passing remarks that an advocacy agensy for the disabled was looking into possible charges of abuse. If you hadn't seen this, please ping your lists as well. I guess I will have to excerpt it. I believe that the Chicago Tribune is affiliated with the LA Times/Washington Post.

Agency to probe alleged spousal abuse of brain damaged woman
BY MICHAEL MARTINEZ AND PAT KAMPERT
Chicago Tribune
PINELLAS PARK, Fla. - (KRT) - A state protection agency for disabled persons on Wednesday was planning to launch an investigation into alleged spousal abuse against Terri Schiavo, the severely brain damaged woman whose feeding tube was reinserted this week after intervention by the Florida Legislature and Gov. Jeb Bush.
The investigation by the Advocacy Center for Persons with Disabilities, an agency mandated in states and funded by Congress, could play a decisive role in a revived legal battle over who should be the guardian of the 39-year-old Schiavo - her husband or her parents.
