As long as her family pays to keep feeding her why would anyone object to keeping her alive?

I know that there is very little open-mindedness left on this topic, but the answer to your question is to let this poor maimed woman go home. Is there no end to what others can do to continue her long-suffering for ideological 'points'? Only those with a narrow definition of 'life', no understanding of the mercy of God and willing to continue their narrow conception of 'life' at any cost to the person involved would want this poor woman to continue to suffer.

There, I finally said it. This whole 'show' is a travesty.

This concerns me. If he orders the tube to be pulled on her on Friday after 5PM, the state legislature and Supreme Court are no longer in session.

Even in the worst case scenario, Terri would have little trouble surviving the weekend. I believe the last time it was removed, it was six days before it was reinserted.

Who said she is suffering? I thought she was for all intents and purposes feelingless and unaware. You can't have it both ways. Only those with a narrow definition of 'life' Remove this definition and you will swing open the floodgates to all kinds of evils.

We don't like to see innocent human beings starved to death. We're funny that way.

Dr. Hammesfahr revealed that Terri has at least 75% functional brain tissue and that the stories circulating in the media about a head full of fluid "only" are totally false. He has had patients with less brain function doing much more than Terri is doing, and Dr. Hammesfahr believes that Terri is being kept to a lower level of function by her being denied opportunities to do anything, have any rehabilitation, and that she her improvement is being sabotaged by her being kept in isolation,

I don't know all the details about the Quinlan case but your argument sounds similar to the one made to sidewalk counselors at abortion mills. "How many babies have you adopted?" (My son is adopted) "Are you willing to care for these babies that are kept, implying that by saving their lives, I am now responsible for all their financial needs the rest of their lives. The argument proves nothing as to whether she should have been removed from life support.

Any judge that rules the tubes be removed ought be required to go to the hospital and do it himself, and sit there and watch., for as long as it takes.

Thanks Graymatter for doing that. I didn't see it the first time around. You certainly didn't mince any words, and rightly so I might add.

Actually, it's not like that at all. It's simply the great American tradition of minding one's own business seems to have fallen out of favor to be replaced by a win at any cost regardless of fact and who is injured along the way.
Your compassion for the parents in this case is underwhelming and proves my point, the cause is greater than the individual. Real conservative outlook.

I just read this story. This is a (free) subscription site (Atlanta Journal Constitution). I'm too computer challenged to figure out how to give it it's own thread....but I think you all will find it interesting. The Florida DCF is seeking a 60 day stay....but there are interesting tidbits in the article.

Sounds like he has his mind made up and will do the cowardly deed in darkness.

I'm all for mind your own business. Terri's family appealed to the public for help. Next.

Michael and Terri Schiavo, like Norma McCorvey and her aborted child in Texas 30 years ago...

I'm fairly certain that Ms. McCorvey did not abort that child. She has also become quite pro-life--her change of heart is a very amazing story. You are right in that Ms. McCorvey was a pawn, and things she has written make me believe that she believes so, too. Michael, however, is no pawn. He is a willing participant, doing everything he can to foist upon us this brave new world where the less than perfect are not forced to live their obviously miserable lives.
