Terri died 15 years ago, likely because of her self-inflicted abuse via eating disorder (ironic, no?). Only the shell of her body ceased to fucntion today. She's finally at rest.

I knew. I should have placed a bet that some of the death cult ghouls would be gloating......

[Think free or die]

God rest her soul.

May her stolen life and her family's loving courage open the eyes, minds, and hearts of people around the world. May God grant us the strength to reverse this culture of death.

[Pravious]

"This is a dark moment in the history of Western Civilisation. It was not a fascist regime which killed the weak and disabled, but the processes of a modern, functioning democracy."

Ditto.

This barbaric act makes me ashamed to co-exist in the same "civilisation" that those black-robed murderers pretend to rule over - sharing the same moral ground, now, as those who ran the Nazi death camps, or stood silently by while nothing was done.

This is truly horrifying.

Dear Terri,
"May the Lord Bless You and Keep You,

May He Let His Face Shine Upon You

And Be Gracious To You!

May He Look Upon You Kindly

and Give you His Peace."

and I would hope that some here who held vigil all these days and weeks would continue to pray on matters of the heart.......just cause Terri is gone would not be a reason for some to forget God now.....(not directed at you ohio)

In cases brought before the Florida judiciary concerning Living Wills the courts have always sided with the Will. I personally have one filed not only with my doctor but notarized and kepts in a lockbox. My husband and parents know where it is and have been told to follow it to the letter. That is the best I can do to protect my wishes in case something happened to me.

I know if either my spouse or parents attempted to subvert my wishes through the courts, my wishes would be upheld.

[Zechariah_8_13]

forgive and forget.

No, we are never commanded to forget. We can, however ask God to help us forgive in circumstances where it is beyond our own power.

We forgive because unforgiveness eats away at us. We also forgive because of Matt 18:18--

I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

It's a sad commentary when the scum at DU is more compassionate than a lot of FreeRepublics "Finest".

I'm convinced more than ever there are a large number of long time moles in FR who have stayed around long enough to be "Protected".

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Perhaps we should start an e-group "reading group" to study the Summa among Catholic Freepers. It might help.

[Schwaeky]

Terri's brother Bobby, sister Suzanne and Father Frank Pavone were told by Michael Schiavo to leave Terri's room ten minutes before she died. The Schindler family was denied access to Terri's beside in her final moments of life. -- Father Frank Pavone (at the Hospice Woodside)...."

What pure hatred must he have for this family. To deny them their daughters last moments...I am speechless. May God Forgive him.

There may be a more sinister reason fo barring her parents and Father Pavone... he may have administered Morphine or Insulin to her (morphine to put her under, or insulin to put her in hypoglycemic shock, which w/ that level of dehydration/starvation, would kill her very quickly)...

Doctors, test her blood sugar when u do the autopsy!!!!! she was not a diabetic!

[zippee]

Rest in Peace, Terri Schiavo. You suffer no more.

How do you know she was suffering? I thot she felt no pain or didn't even know of her existence anyway? See...even you are a hypocrit and ignorant.

[Aquinasfan]

No, I am not using God's will incorrectly.

I didn't say you were. I said you were both using it in different senses.

He is in control at all times.

If you read the section from the Summa you'll see that St. Thomas agrees with you.

[TenaciousZ]

What a sad day. May she rest in peace.

"This is not only a death with the sadness it brings, this is a killing," said the Rev. Frank Pavone, another spiritual adviser to the Schindlers.

Franciscan Brother Paul O'Donnell, an adviser to the Schindlers, said they and their two other children "were denied access at the moment of her death. They've been requesting, as you know, for the last hour to try to be in there and they were denied access by Michael Schiavo.

May Terri find the peace in heaven that was denied her on earth. RIP, Terri, and may God bless your soul.

Murdered by hearsay.

[reagandemocrat]

Amen.

[jonwill]

the Bushes did not murder her.
The problem is that they did not save her.

[ex-snook]

Thanks for the alert. God Bless Terri - only her parents have left this field with honor.

[in the Arena]

In my thoughts and prayers...
