I will always continue to send Judge Greer e-mails and letters for as long as I am able to locate him and remind him of his actions.

Not as harrassment, I couldn't cross that line, but just to let him know for the rest of his life that even his own Church turned and walked away from him and asked him to leave their congregation.

No matter the outcome for Terri, and I HOPE it is a good one, I will make it a point to periodically remind Judge Greer of his actions.

On flimsy testimony from a Husband in Name Only and HIS family vs. Terri's girlfriends and her family he judged she should die.

It was NOT Clear and Convincing testimony, there was NOT unaniinity in the evidence and Judge Greer voted the way HE would want to live, not what he actually knew Terri would want.

That is Terri's main problem, people project their own wishes on Terri, they do not look for the truth, in that it is clear and convincing that being starved to death is what Terri would have wanted.

I agree totally! Even the 2nd DCA projected their own feelings by ASSUMING what Terri would do or want:
In the final analysis, the difficult question that faced the trial court was whether Theresa Marie Schindler Schiavo, not after a few weeks in a coma, but after ten years in a persistent vegetative state that has robbed her of most of her cerebrum and all but the most instinctive of neurological functions, with no hope of a medical cure but with sufficient money and strength of body to live indefinitely, would choose to continue the constant nursing care and the supporting tubes in hopes that a miracle would somehow recreate her missing brain tissue, or whether she would wish to permit a natural death process to take its course and for her family members and loved ones to be free to continue their lives. After due consideration, we conclude that the trial judge had clear and convincing evidence to answer this question as he did.

Were they supposed to rule on if "she didn't want to live this way" or if "she didn't to inconvience her family members"? What a large assumption they made when they made that statement. That one's always bothered me because I never heard of any testimony about what Terri would want for others, KWIM?
