PINELLAS PARK, United States (AFP) - The father of Terri Schiavo made a desperate, 11th hour appeal for authorities to reconnect a feeding tube to his severely brain-damaged daughter, and said he feared doctors might try to hasten her death. "I have a grave concern that they'll expedite the process to kill her with an overdose of morphine," Bob Schindler told the press Monday outside the hospice where his 41-year old daughter is a patient.

Are we waiting, waiting, waiting while Terri dehydrates to death? The time has come to call, email and fax encouragement to President Bush to write an executive order protecting Terri immediately and getting her into a hospital.
