You seem to have all of the insight. Care to tell us where you got your MD doctor?
That's a good point. If this is true and saving Terri's life is that important, stop talking, make a sworn statement and run with it!
What's medically not possible?
Hospice units do not have doctors available at all times.
This is not a hospital.
If Terri dies; I'd hate to be in Florida come next hurricane season.
Saturday afternoon would be better.
One would think this would be noticed by the doctors.
Who said and did nothing? Could be. Could be those kind of doctors, and what with all the 'national issue' and legal issues they face, here. It would be easy to find out. Just ask the cops who were there. What did they hear? What did they see?
I prayed all day that she would do just this sort of thing.
Say a word...say -anything-.
At this point, I believe that if Terri leapt onto a tabletop and quoted the preamble to the Declaration of Independence in its entirety, her "doctors" would still publicly judge it a residual, primitive autonomic quirk and declare her brain dead.
Maybe... but since Judge Greer hasn't even visited Ms. Schiavo himself (despite his long standing as her official legal bulwark) and has very carefully exercised complete control over access to her (and has reportedly destroyed records germane to the case), it has now become imperative that genuinely unbiased and impartial people determine where the truth actually lies. I generally wonder why any judge - or other interestd party - would object to some sunshine.
But her sister did say she tried to talk today.
Is this the Randall Terry of Operation Rescue fame?
Umm... we're waiting for your informed explanation.
That's why I cheered when I heard that Dr. Bill Frist was calling for her to have a complete medical exam with an MRI (which as I understand she has never had).
The truth of the extent of her brain damage must be made public.........that she, in fact, is not brain dead....
This is certainly a false rumour started by Terry in a bid to rally public support, or Barbara Weller simply lied to Terry, knowing this word would spread through him. Weller made a public statement earlier today that did not include the information. If it had happened, it would be a simple matter to record it and establish Terri's ability to choose her own fate.
This has become a campaign of disinformation on both sides. Public pressure is important, because by getting people incensed enough to act, they will continue pressuring elected officials or judges to act. It's a smart strategy, perhaps the only one left.
I know many people want this to be true, but it isn't.
You know, I've been trying to stay up on all the news regarding Terri today, and it has been really hard, with all the separate threads starting constantly as different news filters in.
I wonder if we shouldn't have a daily thread, starting tomorrow to try and consolidate all the news as it happens, like we did during OIF. If it's kept in the sidebars, maybe everyone can congretate there, concentrate of the latest news/calls for action, etc.
What do you think? I'm not sure who would be the best one to lead it, I know there are many FReepers down there outside the hospice, but I can't think of their names right now. I'm going to be on the road tomorrow at 5am, and can only check in sporadically.
Judge Greer is above the law, is part of the group wanting the ability to kill and is not in contempt by ignoring the supoenas.
Stay away from Florida and never live there if you are elderly or weak.
The death culture thrives there and after this will be even stronger. Look for a rash of more spouses suddenly remembering that the partner claimed they would not want to live if .........
You would prefer the democrats running the country? Or will you leave. Because all that stands between euthanasia and unlimited abortions up to 8 months is a republican president and congress. I think your position is extreme and overly dramatic.
