Terri on the road to recovery before the second stage began.
ST. PETERSBURG (FBW)It was a painful time for the Schindler family.
After years of disappointing legal maneuvers, a failed act of Congress and an emotional and highly publicized conflict with their adult daughters husband, Michael, Terri Schindler Schiavo died March 31, 2005, at a Pinellas Park hospice.
A year later, the orange fences that kept protestors away from hospice property and out of the street for over two weeks are but a distant memory. The on-site protests represented an unknown number of individuals mostly who believed dehydrating to death the 40-year old brain-damaged woman was both immoral, unethical and should be against the law.
