If you mean Christopher Reeve, I've contacted them twice in the hopes his foundation would make a statement on Terri's behalf and have been turned down both times. Other people who did not want to get involved (either with or without response):
Dr. Laura
Rush Limbaugh (in all fairness, it's not really his format, but still...)
ACLU
National Organization of Women
Department of Children and Families
State Attorney Bernie McCabe
Pope John Paul
Florida Attorney General Charlie Crist
US Attorney General Ashcroft
Brain Injury Association of Florida
Florida Medical Association
US Department of Health and Human Services
National Association of Protection and Advocacy
That's all I can think of at the moment, but there are plenty more. I had contacted Joni Erickson Tada and didn't receive a response, but have been told she featured Terri's story in a recent broadcast.
The others, I simply cannot excuse.

Florida Attorney General Charlie Crist
I though Crist is helping Terri through the incoming assistant attorney general, who is an outgoing Republican state legislator from Pinellas Co.
I am sorry that Dr. Laura did not consider Terri's plight as important as her typical caller problem.

Don't both of these groups support euthanasia?

30 seconds of a monologue by El Rushbo would be worth 10,000 posts on Free Republic as far as getting the word out to the country is concerned.
What needs to be done is the heat needs to be turned up on this judge, and el Rushbo is the man who could do it. There has to be a way.

Thanks for your major efforts to contact the media and bureaucrats.
I just wanted to remind freepers that Dr. Laura's own mother passed away and nobody even knew for about a month. People make the mistake that this is about the ugly subject of death which makes them uncomfortable.
IN TRUTH, THIS IS ABOUT LIFE which should make them want to help. Every time I see Terri on tv, it's even harder for me to imagine that they would neglect her for years and that includes all of her rights as an American.
