Terri Bleeding From Eyes and Mouth

Contrary to predictions that Terri Schiavo's starvation death would be painless and dignified, an eyewitness who visited her hospice room early Saturday morning reports that she is now bleeding from the eyes and mouth.
Fox News Channel's "Fox & Friends" reported Saturday morning:
"Barbara Weller, who's is one of the attorneys for the Schindlers, says that the last time she checked in, not very many hours ago, Terri's eyes and tongue were bleeding now.
"Her eyes are sunken and her skin continues to flake off," Weller added.
On Thursday Terri's parents reported that their daughter now resembles "an Auschwitz victim."
At the request of Michael Schiavo's attorney, Judge George Greer has banned cameras and video equipment from her room, precluding the possibility that a photographic record of her deteriorating condition might be kept.
The eyewitness accounts stand in stark contrast to predictions from medical experts cited in numerous media reports who insisted that Terri's starvation death would not be gruesome.
On Wednesday, for instance, the Los Angles Times reported:
"Doctors say that going without food and water in the last weeks of life is not traumatic, and that the body is equipped to adjust to such conditions."
The paper quoted Dr. Perry G. Fine, vice president of medical affairs at the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization in Arlington, Va.

I don't care why you doubt this story, because it's true. However, since you ask, my guess is that you doubt this story merely because it makes you feel better on some level. If you didn't doubt this story, you might have to consider that your perception is wrong. Most people don't like doing that.

Creep judge and Micheal have had orders in place for years. Ever since they took some video footage of Terri showing her following a balloon and showing she was not in PVS.
The scumbag husband also would not allow the parents to see her for a while after that.
They would not allow any still photos either. This is by that lowlife judges court order!
NEVER FORGET TERRI TIME TO TAKE AMERICA BACK!

The leftist fascists in this country, backed up by JUDICIAL TYRANNY, have the
same treatment reserved for all of us.
They will go for more handicapped persons.
Then they will start on the Christians.

I watched someone die exactly this way a little more than a year ago (a throat cancer victim who chose to halt all life support) and it was nothing like this at all. The finality was dreadfully sad, but otherwise it actually was rather serene and peaceful as such things go. I'm really skeptical about this claim, especially coming from the same person who claims Terri attempted to speak. I think it's hype. JMO. Just supposition, but the person you point to in your example may have been so far 'gone' physically that the organs did shut down and they passed before the effects of starvation could become evident.
It is my understanding that in Terri's case, aside from brain injury, the rest of her body was functioning normally. Thus the effects of starvation could become much more apparent and causal in her demise.
Just an opinion.

Could you be any more dramatic?

Don't forget - the process of withdrawing/withholding food and water from someone who is already dying, such as a cancer patient, and in the end stages of life, is very different from withdrawing/withholding food and water from someone who is physically healthy, such as Terri was when they did this to her last week.

Are you in favor of Judge Greer's ruling?
If so, I gotta' hand it to you.
If we ever have a contest here on FR about the most ironic FR nicknames, I think yours would get one of the top awards, certainly an honorable mention.

I am weeping! This is like Jesus Christ in the Garden of Gethsemene! Heavenly Father - Let Thy Holy Wrath rain down upon these demons from hell who are tormenting Thy little daughter. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ - Amen.

Well that is good news for the Mexicans crossing the border and for the starving around the world. And as far as the farmers starving their cows they should be allowed to. Thanks for clarifying your position on these other issues.

Think Terry's Fight does not affect, or apply, to you?Think again.
Got a recessive gene? Old parent or spouse? Handicapped child?
At what point do they become "a useless Eater"-- like Terry?
All you geezers that moved to Florida for low taxes & mild weather? You're next...
Just as the Pope predicted, we have become a Cult of Death--

Your friend had a terminal disease & was dying. The body was ready to die. Terri was otherwise a healthy, functioning human being - it's like taking any one of us & putting us in a guarded room with orders for no food or water. We would cling to life as long as we could too, because WE WANT TO LIVE.

Heavenly Father - We pray for Thy mercy to flow to our little Sister, Theresa Marie, in this her greatest hour of need. Save our darling little Sister. We pray in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and Friend. Amen.
