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.
That's very interesting piece of autobiographical data. It is not relevant to the Terry Schiavo case though.
So many people seem to be engaging in psychological projection. They seem to think that what THEY "would want", if they were Mrs. Schiavo, is somehow relevant. It is not.
Anyway, I wonder why you have decided that it's so horrible to live on a feeding tube. It is so horrible that you would rather die? For your information, this girl lived on a feeding tube for 7+ years. Now it's been determined she doesn't need it and she leads a normal life.
Sure. Let Bo Gritz do it. That'll help your cause.
Amen.
As if it was all over but the shouting.
The GOP will intervene or face the fury of its base.
Would that make you feel good? Somehow add to your life?
My Good G-D!!!
Your concern for the woman you want to kill is just overflowing.
Congress tried. The judge ignored Congress' order and the Supremacy clause of the Constitution. What we have here is not only legalized murder but a real constitutional crisis that has to be resolved.
Ghoul!
Sickening. This is nothing less than murder.
OK folks, get Gov. Bush to exercise his authority as Gov. to protect Terri.. EMAIL HIM THIS OR A SIMILAR MESSAGE. Call if you can (can't find a phone # for his office)..

Dear Gov. Bush,
Under Article I Section 2 of the Constitution of the State of Florida, Terri Schiavo has the enumerated right to life. The State Constitution also states that "No person shall be deprived of any right because...physical handicap."
Pinellas Circuit Judge George Greer does not have the authority do deprive Terri of this right simply because she cannot communicate, and he is using this physical handicap to deprive her of this right, in clear violation of the State Constitution.
On order to enforce Terri's right to I encourage you to exercise your authority as Governor of Florida to ensure that she is protected.
Judge George Greer’s order to allow the tube to be removed will cause chaos at the local level. The local authorities will be prevented, by court order, from enforcing Terri's right to life as enumerated under the State Constitution. The only reason she is being deprived of this is due to her physical disabilities. Were she not disabled, she could defend herself.
The unconstitutional rulings issued by the judge have created a resistance to the execution of the laws and Constitution of Florida, a condition under which Florida Statute 250.28 gives you authority to utilize the Florida National Guard in order to eliminate such resistance. Please utilize the guard to ensure her feeding tube remains in place and her sustenance continued.
Sincerely
Exactly---what the heck is Dr. Kevorkian doing in jail if this is okay? The people he killed at least said (as I recall) that they wanted to die.
You think starving someone to death slowly is showing mercy?
She's not dead yet. She may surprise you all and survive. I certainly hope so.
There are a lot of people with feeding tubes that live productive and happly lives.
Anytime the word "court" appears, I have a Pavlonian response: "Oh no: More bad news for Terri." Wish there was some way to legally circumenvent the courts and appeal to some authority committed to upholding law - like not executing non-capital non-offenders.
Save her from being murdered by her husband.
My prayers going up for Terri and her family. God's protection over Terri. God's comfort for her family. Lord please intervene! If it is your will to have Terri home, take her now. Please don't allow her to feel the pain involved in this form of death. If it is your will that she live...please give us a miracle! In Jesus' precious name. Amen
Blessings,
trussell
If you want on/off my prayer ping list, please let me know. All requests happily honored.
Of course not. They're not that humane.

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).
