Quite frankly I don't understand you at all, eccentric. I see by searching your posts that you have been following the Schiavo story intently. You've written innumerable posts, many of them indicate you have detailed command of the facts of the case. And now you say the Schindlers have allowed Terri to be imprisoned and abused for 7 years?!
I would NEVER have let this go on this long. I would give my life for my child. I fought the legal and publicity route when 'child-savers' destroyed our family, but if I thought that my children were actually being abuse. I would have killed the social workers. In fact, as I remember, I had to restrain my husband a few times.
