Thank you for posting the Bishop's 'retraction'. The original acceptance of Terri's starvation was one of the scariest decisions I've seen on the part of the church.

WND is doing a good job of putting Terri's case up front where it belongs. They have a widespread international readership. They took THIS article and added a new headline and the new first paragraph, kept it on the front page:

A Federal District Court judge in Tampa has scheduled an emergency hearing in the case of Terri Schindler-Schiavo, a disabled woman whose husband has petitioned the courts to end her life by the removal of her feeding tube. The hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, September 2, 2003 at the Federal Courthouse in Tampa.

Thank you all for working so hard to get the word out. Terri's in danger from now 'til Tues, imho. There are plenty of reasons for many involved in this case to not want any further investigation into how this could possibly have been allowed to happen in America, to be dragged on without the whole world knowing about it for years (PRESS cover-up!). This is a major scandal.

Prayers please.

Thanks RC. Jpegs and hyperlinks. You're a peach.

I just read your link to a "Husband bars priest from brain-damaged wife" and all I can think of is Scott Peterson. Terri's husband is a real piece of work.

I mean...how sweet is this?

Anderson is particularly concerned about the impact this could have on Terri.

"Terri looked forward to his visits," she said.

Anderson said Malanowski filed an affidavit "describing how one St. Patrick's Day he visited Terri and told her he was going to sing 'When Irish Eyes are Smiling' in Polish. And she started laughing. She got the humor, she understood. Michael insists that she is so brain-damaged that she can't recognize people or anything -- but she loves Monsignor."

As Anderson's sees it, Schiavo is trying to make Terri's environment as "barren as possible, and as free from stimulation."

"I don't think there is any justification for removing spiritual comfort from her in what may be her last days," she said. "It's beyond comprehension."
