"Oddly, her guardian/husband has not answered the appeal nor objected to the family's request for oral arguments to the 2nd DCA.
Odder still is that he has also not responded to Governor Jeb Bush's latest acceleration to the United States Supreme Court."
I wonder if everyone's prayers have anything to do with his apparent lack of energy.
Despite all of Schiavo's attempts Terri still lives!!
There is certainly something to be said for positive energy. Perhaps you are right.
I know that a very big part is that Terri's parents have no intention of allowing their own child to be euthanized. Certainly not when she's obviously alive, aware and wants to live her life.
Mum and dad go in to see her, and she giggles at them, follows them with her eyes, tries so desperately to communicate (and actually does a pretty good job considering the lack of therapy), complies with requests to do this, do that, cries like hell when they leave.
I know that this would have been her parents' path, no matter what. But I also know that the outpouring of support from people - most of us strangers - has given them a great deal of comfort.
So, I say thank you once again. It has helped. It has opened eyes and it has served to let Terri's family know that they are not alone.
Odder yet, the Schiavo scumbag gets everything he wants whenever he does bother to appear in court.
