FAMILY SPOKESPERSON: SCHIAVO FEEDING TUBE REMOVED!
Bay News 9 ^ | 3/18/05

Posted on 03/18/2005 12:18:38 PM PST by areafiftyone

A spokesperson for Michael Schiavo says Terri Schiavo's feeding tube was removed Friday with Michael in attendance.

He says a prayer service was held first, and that Michael was emotional and crying, saying he wanted to put the situation behind him.

Terri Schiavo's parents, the Schindlers, visited with Terri Friday morning, prior to the tube's removal.

Pinellas-Pasco Circuit Court Judge George Greer denied two U.S. House of Representative emergency motions Friday, which allowed the tube's removal.

The first motion was to intervene in the case for the House Committee on Government Reform and the second motion was to push the date back nine days so it could conduct what it calls a field investigation concerning the healthcare of Schiavo.

A neurologist appeared at Terri Schiavo's Pinellas Park hospice center Friday with a TV screen to show video of patients he treated that were in worse condition than Schiavo and got better.

Have you people considered that maybe Terri does not want to live like this???

Have you considered that maybe Terri wants to live PERIOD?! To be given the chance to be able to feed herself so she wouldn't have to depend on this tube?

Would you people want to live like Terri rest of your life? I sure would not.

This isn't about what YOU or what anyone else wants. Is this want TERRI wants?

The judiciary is comprised of tyrants.

We need to curtail their usurped powers before it's too late.

The question revolves aroung Terri's wishes - and we DO NOT KNOW THEM - so we must err on the side of life. A casual remark (if it ever happened) to her husband can not be the basis for her death.

I'm sorry about your Uncle but it was a terminal cancer case. Terri has never had the chance to be rehabilitated - maybe if she had she could speak for herself. She is not terminal - she can not feed herself - that is not a reason to die.

It has nothing to do with you..sorry I replied to your post with caps...did not mean to offend you...

But truly..don't know how anyone with a heart could remain emotionless and deadly reasonable when someone just got a death sentence who has committed no crime and has struggled against a vile husband, having been denied every single right I can think of.. for twelve long years.

We are willing to starve to death the innocent in our nation? On the word of one judge? Since when?

Are you aware that her husband had denied her treatment that may have improved her condition? Do you know that she has told family and friends that she did not approve of removeing life support from coma victims. Did you know that there is still a chance with re-hab that she can improve - that case is just what MS claimed when he won 1 million plus on her behalf 2 months prior to denying her proper medical treatments.

I am so tired of people projecting themselves into her life. And yes ask me - today I would like the chance to heal with the money provided to do so. If not you, thats personal. She said she did.

Believe me, it scares me deeply.

This murder is causing Anger in the hearts of Virtueous people....so IMO the thoughts of sin going through all the minds of Godly folks right now should be piled on top of the heads all those promoting Terri's Murder and may they be smited with boils as punishment.

King Vanity is soooooo Angry and that is not an emotion he is "Loose" with.

If they don't get it re inserted withen the next hour Terri's stoma site will close off and it is Major surgery to create another stoma site.

God Bless you Terri.

Sick Sick Sick.........

BTW King Vanity wants all to know that inserting the tube does not hurt....I change his 3-4 times year and he says changing his trach appliance to clean everyother day is waaaaaaay more painful.

"The doctors said they was going to give her massive amounts of morphine and sedatives and other drugs to knock her out)if she is even aware)."

Why bother if she's not aware? Which is it?

That denial of communion and religious freedom is yet more un-American injustice. Terrorist scum have "human rights advocates" screaming that they cannot be denied their religious freedom but of course not one has uttered a peep of protest about the atrocities committed against Terri.

It's so simple. No document, no proof. No proof, no death.

NO DOCUMENT! NO PROOF!

Have you people considered that maybe Terri does not want to live like this??? Would you people want to live like Terri rest of your life? I sure would not.

Would I want my spouse -- who CHEATED on me and had two illegitimate children -- to decide whether I lived or died?

Would I want the same person who was too COWARDLY to divorce me to decide my fate?

Would I want the same individual who may have ABUSED me to starve me to death?

Would I want the same traitorous spouse to spend thoudsands of dollars won in a malpractice lawsuit on HIS OWN BEHALF in my case to make a life or death decision for me?

There are bigger questions here that Starvin' Greer doesn't want answered.

Of course they will. Terri will not die in pain. Truth be known, she'll die much like many do every day in this country, people who have no chance at recovery, and have and will never have a feeding tube inserted in the first place. Many here would have us believe that wasting away till death has never happened before. It has. I've seen it. I've understood it.

All of the sensitive souls on this forum who have dedicated so much heart to this should not torture themselves that she will be in any pain.

That said, I don't doubt this isn't the last twist in this debacle.

Yeah, that's my question: on what basis did the judge rule that he could ignore a congressional subpoena?

I don't know, but it speaks volumes that the MSM doesn't seem to think that judicial activists' rationale need to be reported. Kind of like what the King says simply goes.

Enlighten me, how did Michael win this money? On what basis?
