*Michael, HAVE A HEART !!!!!For Valentines Day give Terri back to her MOM & DAD, The Schindlers!!!!!!!!*
The Terri Schindler Schiavo Daily Threads are created month to month as we watch local and national news regarding Terri and her family.
Since Terri's supporters are in every time zone, you may see something FIRST. Please share news with us that you don't see here already. Now, why would you want to do that? Terri's Daily Thread for September/October of 2004 was viewed over 15,000 times. Terri's November Daily Thread was viewed over 6,000 times. December's thread is over 3,000 views. January 2005 Daily Thread was a RECORD HIGH!!!!!!! 15, 103 VIEWS!!!!!!
More and more good folks are finding out about Terri and that judicial tyranny would take her life, but for lots and lots of prayer and non-stop lobbying of relatives, friends, clergy, our leaders, the media, a passerby, a cashier - ANYONE who you feel comfortable chatting with.
Folks always want to know how can this be in America or on earth for that matter? Unfortunately, this is really happening to an innocent woman who just celebrated her 41st birthday. She's not the only one but she's the one with devoted parents and siblings who knows what's in Terri's heart. Terri has a strong will to live. That's apparent. It's been 14 years.
Besides, feeding tubes have been around practically since the Civil War. They are not high tech devices. Terri is "not hooked up to machines". Her feeding tube is the diameter of a piece of spaghetti.
Talkin' about Terri is the best way to lobby for her. It is a salespitch to save her life and subsequently, many lives. If you've never sold anything in your life, START NOW. START WITH TERRI.
See Terri's flash movies if you need more information. You can see for yourself that's she's interactive and follows the doctor's instructions.

NOTE: Terri's December Dailies are noted as a source above. There are lots of important links at the very top of that thread. If you missed Terri's Celebration of Life, you can click on it from there.
AGAIN WE HAVE A NEW RECORD: 15,103 views on the tote board for the Terri Schindler Schiavo January Daily Thread!
The most significant event in Terri's case in January, was the Supreme's Courts refusal to hear Governor Jeb Bush's appeal, after the Florida State Legislature struck down Terri's Law. This once again places Terri's life in extreme jeopardy, though there are other issues regarding her case before the court.
Five minutes of prayer at 11:00AM. May I also suggest we pray for WISDOM.

Gators for Terri,
I hope you get this information about the prayer vigil tomorrow. I met 2 of you on Monday at Woodside when we prayed the rosary. You gave some shirts to my children. (Everyone likes the shirts and they ask about them when we go to pray at the hospice) I hope you can come tomorrow. There is someone who is working to get Mel Gibson to come sometime in the future. God willing this may work out. God bless you for all you do!
In Christ,
Chris Nestor
+JMJ+ Dear Friends,
Sunday evening the Pilgrim Virgin statue of Fatima will be at the Woodside Hospice at 7 pm. This is the statue commissioned by the Bishop of Fatima October 13, 1947 to travel the world.
We will be having a candlelight prayer service and rosary. Please arrive a little before 7pm and bring your rosary and a candle. (Battery operated candles would be wonderful for the children so they can participate also)
Here is a brief history of the Pilgrim statue through which God has worked great miracles throughout the world:
The history of the International Pilgrim Virgin Statue begins in 1946. At that time, after the youth of Portugal attended a Congress in Fatima, they took the Statue from display in the Cova on pilgrimage to Lisbon. As they walked the route they stopped at the towns and people gathered to pray. In Lisbon when they entered the cathedral, the miracle of doves occurred. Many other phenomena also occurred inspiring devotion and inspiring the fervor among the people.
The statue was returned to its place in the Cova de Iria but many people wished for a visit in their own communities. The Bishop asked Sr. Lucia in a letter about sending the statue on tour. Sr. Lucia responded with a letter suggesting that the new statue, just then being made, by the famous sculptor Jose Thedim be used as a pilgrim statue. The Bishop agreed and, on May 13, 1947, this new statue was blessed and named the International Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima.
Almost before it began its journey, so many places wanted her visit that it was realized a second statue should also be blessed. This second statue, made also by Jose Thedim, was completed and blessed by the Bishop of Fatima on October 13, 1947 (Exactly 30 years to the day after the great miracle of the sun which was to draw the world's attention to Mary's message.)
This second statue was en route from Palm Beach to Minnesota and it will be here for our prayers on Sunday. Please come and invite others by: passing along this e-mail, announcements at church, or phone calls.
We pray Our Lady of Fatima will intercede for Terri, our court system, and our legislature.
If you need directions or assistance please call Chris 727-397-2561 or e-mail chrisnestor@juno.com
In Christ, Chris

Schiavo Judge Loses Bid For Chief Judge Post
By The Empire Journal
By a vote of 31-28, the Florida judge which has decreed that Terri Schindler-Schiavo must be starved to death has lost his bid to become chief judge of Florida’s Sixth Judicial Circuit Court.
George W. Greer who has set the date of March 18 that will allow estranged husband Michael Schiavo to remove Terri Schiavo’s feeding tube, was opposing David A. Demers.
Demers was seeking an unprecedented third two-year term as chief judge of Pinellas-Pasco Counties.
The 59 judges of the judicial circuit voted by secret ballot.
The chief judge of a judicial circuit is responsible for assigning judges to criminal, civil, probate or other courts and for managing the circuit.
As chief judge,. Demers, could remove Greer from the Schiavo case in probate court and reassign another judge to the case. Greer had said if he was elected he will continue handling the Schiavo case.
Greer had stated he was seeking the supervisory position because “there’s some things in the system that need to be tweaked a little bit”.
Judging from the alleged violations of campaign finance laws and election laws, it appears that one of the main things in the Florida court system that needs to be “tweaked” is Greer himself. http://www.theempirejournal.com/02230590_schiavo_judge_tv_commer.htm and http://www.theempirejournal.com/02240541_schiavo_judge_ad_flap_c.htm
Greer has come under intense public scrutiny for his handling of the Schiavo case and the legality of his judgeship has been questioned in that pubic records indicate that he may have signed a false written statement saying that he had qualified for office when he had not filed the proper documents with the Division of Elections within the time frames prescribed by law.
By allegedly failing to qualify for office, Greer could not have legally appeared on the ballot and therefore would not have been legally elected to the judicial position he claims. See http://www.theempirejournal.com/greer_schiavo_articles.htm
Prayer Vigil at 7 p.m. tonight at Hospice ...
"HOWEVER, religiosity in the form of paraphanalia should be kept OUT of this. I have stated it before, IF this is what the general public is going to see, the general public will simply say that it is just a small group of "religious" nuts and will turn their backs on the fight for Terri's life. This SERIOUSLY needs to be seen as the citizens of Florida and the United States and other countries, as hundreds of ANGRY "citizens" at the thought of MURDERING an innocent girl WHO WANTS TO LIVE and who is ONLY disabled and NOT a vegetable."
Demers, could remove Greer from the Schiavo case in probate court and reassign another judge to the case.
Demers is actually a friend of Greer's and he too wants Terri dead. The Greer-Demers rivalry would be like a primary between John Kerry and John Edwards.
Trolls are hitting the petition
1461. George W Greer 33770
If you don't like my rulings you can all kiss my azz. You are imcompetent little peons who have no right to question ME or my decisions because I am GOD do you hear me I AM GOD. There's nothing you can do to me. Nothing will be done by those pansies here in Pinellas county or at the Florida Capital, they are afraid of me because I will smite them down with a glance.
Why does FL need 59 judges in this district? I suspect that most of the judges have light workloads, or do they?
Yes, it worked wonders in the Elian Gonzalez debacle.
I am of agreement but there is people gathering from all walks of life there. But if you have a problem you will have to relay that to someone who can do something about it. If you would like me to relay a message I can do so.
And that my dear friend is precisely the point!
If you have a concern send me a message that you would like relayed via freepmail.
I only signed it once. I wonder if they are checking for more than one signature from the same person.
Amen. That's why I questioned the chicken. Someone was bringing a pet chicken to the protest. They said it was an innocent act but I thought it was inappropriate. You just know the media will zoom in on anything weird or silly and make a big deal out of it.
But as a Catholic, one is NOT REQUIRED BY THE FAITH to believe in them. And many Catholics (as well as many non-Catholics), DON'T!
This is not just a Catholic issue. And Catholics should be aware of that, particularly when considering the court of public opinion. Terri's case has dire consequences for people of all faiths, for people who are not religious and even for those who disagree with us whether they realize it or not.
Just so you know, THOSE are Canadian Outrages words that I reposted. She said it SO WELL!
Actually I think that particular signer is with us.
