Terri Schindler-Schiavo MAY & JUNE 2004 DAILIES
http://www.conservative-spirit.org/ | May 22, 2004 | floriduh voter

Posted on 05/22/2004 7:07:30 AM PDT by floriduh voter

Believers in the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence:

Where is Terri's independence?

I'm talking about her independence to learn and to be free from her lonely room.

To kick off Terri's May-June 2004 Dailies, our first article is by Deroy Murdock of Scripps Howard News Service.

Let Terri Schiavo's Parents Restore Her Dignity. May 22, 2004

Terri's parents. Their strong faith and steadfast devotion to Terri is honorable and heroic.

Interesting read when the feeding tube was pulled in 2001.

It looks like the bodyguard issue began in the year 2000 at a Largo Nursing Home.

Terri was improving. What happened to her? So much for the the Guardianship Program in the State of Florida they meet annually and are support to report ANY DEFECTS IN THE LAW or irregularities in the Circuit Courts TO THE LEGISLATURE. OOPS! Further, Judge Greer was the Chair of the Conference of Circuit Court Judges and is now a member of the Conference. Judge Greer is on the Guardianship Monitoring Committee.

Maybe that explains why Terri's teeth are being pulled and she has had a bedsore. Sounds like a shoddy Guardianship Program to me. There are good guardians but Judge Greer is the sole guardianship judge and he's DONE A HORRENDOUS DISSERVICE to citizens like Terri.

In that photo-Michael Schiavo looks deader that he wishes his wife to be. I believe we are looking at a man who sold his soul, and is being eaten alive with the vendetta he reaps upon the Shindler's. So it goes-we all all reap what we sow. Now or later.

Greatly appreciate you efforts. I can't imagine what anyone here would object to (except for Michael and his enablers).

I think there was a clash of personalities. I hope they're still helping Terri even though they never drop by my threads.

I GOT WORD THAT THE VISITATION HEARING IS GOING TO BE tomorrow, JUNE 4, 2004 before Judge Greer.

I don't have the time yet. I may or may not be able to go. The one last week was the most surreal hearing I've ever attended. Michael's side of the courtroom, they all looked like corpses, even his attorneys.

Those of us on Terri's side of the courtroom looked like we were at the world series, in other words, we were all energetic and enthusiastic because we enjoy our lives and want Terri to be free.

FV: Just saw this:

'juliernr21, Could you link this May June Terri Dailies thread to your thread re: the 2nd DCA sending Bush's case to the Fla. Supremes? I can't do it with the colors, etc. Thanks in advance. '

Sorry but I don't know the thread you are referring to....please sent me the URL if you can.

Thanks.

Glad to hear that JEB has made two appointments to the FL SC! Hope that means that the SC is now less liberal.

I haven't been posting at Free Republic for very long, but I'm going to say this anyway. I'm not choosing sides, and I want to make that very clear. I lurked for a while at FR before joining, and the thing that pushed me to join were the Terri threads, last October, when her feeding tube was going to be disconnected.

Some of the posters on the Terri threads have been fighting for her life for quite a long time. So much is at stake, and it's so easy to become exhausted. Even so, unity is extremely important, and more battles have been lost due to the "divide and conquer" strategy.

Please don't succumb to it. For Terri's sake.

Oh, I'm on it and will continue posting news and info as it happens. When the division into smaller groups happened, I saw it with my own eyes.

Thanks go to ohioanfromflorida for her Terri ping list.

That's worse than sad. We're so human, and the devil is so clever....

"I truly can't believe the guy wrote that some of the allegations are amusing!"

...and that he ignores the larger picture, the grave (yes, literally) injustice to Terri's rights. Isn't that similar to the nurse fv wrote about in #382 who sees "it" all the time (ie patients in Terri's condition responding)? As fv noted, such people are desensitized. Romans 1 in action...and how it hurts.

People either get "it" or they don't. I continue to pray for those who do not, and that anyone anywhere who can do any good for Terri will do it. Including Matt C.

Wow, that is awesome news! Thanks for posting that info! Green tartan ribbons are from pc93's efforts on Terri's behalf.

"During the first months that followed Terri's mysterious collapse, she made progress. Medical practitioners noted her efforts to speak and her responsiveness."

Thank God for folks like those at this center in NY who DO get "it", with full implications for us all. Ping to NYers -- can't remember who's posted to Terri. Prayerfully sent in hopes that this will help Terri & others.

Thanks for all your posts here, incl. that photo from court. It was a real privilege to meet Terri's family last October -- they are truly remarkable people. There's a lot of info here to read through.

fv, it isn't like it used to be -- but look how many, many folks are getting good Terri info on these threads, whether they post or lurk, and pass it on to others. Look at pc93's ribbons. You cannot know the good you are doing, and you have our gratitude for your faithfulness.

Prayers continue for Terri's protection and justice. Some days that's all I can do. For those of us who do get it, this hurts so very much as injustice continues! May God help us to do whatever we see to do for her (whether continuing in prayer, or bumps, or phone calls/emails). May He also raise up others who care deeply and act decisively on her behalf, as at that living center in NY w/the half birthday celebration at noon today. And especially, prayers for God to work in the hearts, minds, and lives of any in a direct position to return Terri to her family at long last.

TGIF! :')

Oh yeah! I need to pray for Terri and those surrounding her.

Pat Anderson's comment to Bushnell still has the capacity to jolt me every time it runs across my mind. Good for Pat.And good for Bushnell to hear something direct from a colleague.

Gosh....why all the delays. Is Greer hoping Terri is killed in the meantime?

Ridiculous.

It is time to write and call. Especially Greer's office and perhaps the offices of Felos and Bushnell. And perhaps Jeb's office. But most importantly-it is absolutely critical that all of us pray to our Father.

We are going to help move this mountain. Oh yes.
