Terri Schiavo Cremated Amid Family Feud
Saturday, April 02, 2005
TAMPA, Fla. Terri Schiavo's body was cremated Saturday as disagreements continued between her husband and her parents, who were unable to have their own independent expert observe her autopsy.
The cremation was carried out according to a court order issued Tuesday establishing that Michael Schiavo () had the right to make such decisions, said his lawyer, George Felos. He said plans for burying her ashes in Pennsylvania, where she grew up, had not yet been completed.
Terri Schiavo's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, had wanted to bury their daughter in Pinellas County so they could visit her grave.
Terri Schiavo, 41, died Thursday after the removal of the feeding tube that had kept her alive since 1990, when she suffered brain damage that court-appointed doctors determined had placed her in a persistent vegetative state (). Her parents had fought in court to keep her alive, disputing the doctors' opinions and saying there was hope of improvement.
Her medical records bare out that it is likely she had an eating disorder. It fits what we know... the electrolyte problems, potassium problem, massive weight loss, bruising, heart problem... What do you have to say she *didn't* have an eating disorder? Other than a desire to canonize her and the parents and demonize Michael, I mean.
If she placed her trust in the Lord, then she is indeed in Heaven with Him....
How long did it take for John F Kennedy Jr. to be cremated? Right, no longer than it is being claimed it has taken for Terri Schaivo. It doesn't have to take a long time especially in a high profile situation.
there are a lot of non-constructive posts on this thread.
Greer ordered the autopsy sealed? That's the first I'd heard of that. I thought autopsies were public records in Florida.
What you said was abusive and flamebait. Stay off this thread. I'm not going to warn you again.
You need to understand an autopsy is only to establish cause of death, it would not look at other issues such as abuse.
You're a sick person.
Doctor Baden, yesterday, explained it in that manner. Imaging records can be established quickly and the cadaver is no longer required.
there are a lot of non-conservative posts on this thread.
Greer = Caiaphas
To the ultimate judge of all, this hides nothing.
There are no words. Whats done is done, but how could Michael be so cruel to not even let the parents bury their daughter? Or at least let them know where and when?
I know, he is evil.
Technically, we are now allowing the killing of women who have been "unequally yoked together with an unbeliver." Manybe FL is trying through the back door to enforce that old biblical admonition. Serously though many women have been killed or wounded by men with whom they had been "unequally yoked together." But NOW sees no problem here.
Look closely into who holds the power in Pinellas County, Florida.
There, you'll find the answer.
Which wife would that be?
The one that bore his children or the one whose life he decided to end.
Brilliant!
