>>The new guardian would become Terri Schiavo's advocate in legal proceedings, but Michael Schiavo would remain the decision-maker.

Nothing will really change for Terri until this is dealt with. Michael needs to be removed from any decision making in her case. Maybe if he was removed he would finally divorce her and make his two kids legitimate.

A guardian ad litem would be able to file for his removal as guardian. Given the level of publicity this case has received, I don't think any judge would want to deny.

This fact is astounding. By having another wife for all practical purposes, and children by her, he should've immediately lost and power over Terri, as his obvious priority is that family.

How could Terri's parents not be given custody given that? Is it that the laws are awful for protecting someone like Terri, or is it that judges and lawyers involved have no brains, ethics, and common sense?
