So The Race was against the killing of Terri Schindler? Who knew?
I pray this is not true.
The minister sounds very good.
No, this is the first time I've heard about it. This will not sit well with the Hispanic community.
Hoo boy...now they're going to come out of the woodwork.
The pastor has no right to intervene. Like the courts and the governmental entities in the Schiavo matter, he should butt out.
My eyes are tired, so I didn't notice -- did the wife have any written directive (e.g., living will)?
Whahhhhh. Cry me a river. That Mexican family should have been seeking their succour in their homeland...and NOT in the Americans' homeland.
30 DAYS!!!!!!!!!! Lord have mercy!! Is there anything that can be done?
At least her husband is giving her WATER!!! He's not quite the monster as Michael Schiavo.
well....in case any of us is worried about our impact on society and our fight for moral issues, I can tell you that although we may appear on the surface to lose some of our battles, we are really winning the hearts and minds of the good people in America. As well, as being,ourselves -- the good parts of the hearts and minds of America.
Happen to have a list of all of you and thought we should all ahve a look at this.
Immediatly I am thinking that someone should file a complaint with whatever organization it is in Chicago for abouse against disabled people. At least get some one with authority to look at this.
Next suppose we need to do some quick research on Illinois law.
Terri we have not forgotten you.
Pastor Espinoza is right.
The Jews for Morality release (March 31) called Schiavo's
death "Crossing the Rubicon." I myself am reminded of
Malcolm Gladwell's fairly recent book the Tipping Point,
where he chronicles, some here may recall, how the fact
that events happen (suicides, road accidents) seems to
bring about an increase in those events. How much more
we should dread the "permission" given by the travesty
of justice perpetrated by all parts of our government.
It sounds like in this case there might not be $$$ when this poor Hispanic woman finally starves to death, but MRS has $$$ awaiting him from estate "rights."
Who will volunteer to call the Priest?
It worked real well lst time when we had one person be the contact person with the family.
Who is up for this one to check out the story?
Need to call priest and mother. Probably should speak Spanish if calling mother.
Also until we can get a handle on this let's try and take the higher path and NOT bring in any ethnic comments, okay?
Up is Down and Down is Up
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Probably we would need anothe person to contact the News Reporter.

Will anyone volunteer for this?
We should proably start pinging people we know.
If she can drink water then this is pure starvation, as she is a vunerable person and can drink ensure. If this story checks out, and seeing as how the reporter has already done interviews it sounds legitimate, this is attempted murder and abuse.
How did you find this?
Why withholding food but not water?. I don't see their logic.
I don't think there is any logic.
I think the husband jsut got tired of taking care of her.
my gues, He doens't know that you can live for a couple months on jsut water.
