WHAT BETTER WAY TO SPEND EASTER WEEK??? Everyone GO and try to give Terri water in person. They've already arrested one Catholic worker. Four other Saturday or Sunday. Are there only five trying?
Imagine if by tonight tens and hundreds of THOUSANDS are showing up being arrested as they try to give this innocent woman water. And tomorrow. And the next day.
Are you aware of Kate Adamson who was without her tube 8 days, was in a coma, brain damaged as Terri, and experienced extreme pain wanting water and food, but couldn't? She now is able to fully talk, although still paralyzed on one side, and goes around the country sharing her experience.
Are you aware last month comatose patient Sarah Scantlan in Kansas awoke from an 18-year coma last month with memory and the ability to talk?
Are you aware Terri's guardian' "husband" has had another woman and two kids with her since 1996?
Are you really being merciful to Terri to not allow her to have the latest medical testing to evaluate her brain?
Are you aware there is a STRONG movement in America for euthanasia, pro-death, whose platform is to get rid of the damagaged, incapacitated, and supposedly "useless" like Terri?
Are you being kind to Terri to not allow her the BEST? Are you aware WHY she can't be seen? Her husband does not allow it. Have you ever wondered why no judge has ever seen Terri in person?
Are you aware that Terri NEVER had her OWN lawyer separate from her "husband." HIS lawyer always spoke for Terri, NOT her lawyer. THIS is what is called "due process" and she's been denied it. The courts forget this and think "Oh, 19 lawyers." But NONE were hers.
Are you aware of the claims of abuse by Michael to Terri?
PLEASE, Anyone who can rent a car, hop on a plane, get to Terri's facility with soft food she can swallow and water.
LOOK how peaceful resistance gave blacks their civil rights. Finally.
One day you will be disabled, and needing someone to be your voice. YOU can be Terri's voice, but must act NOW!
God will bless you. "If any man serve Me, him will My Father honor." John 12:26
What are you going to do if you get in? Pour it down her throat and drown her?
Are you aware that you're only adding to the circus spectacle of this whole affair?
I wish I could go. If I still lived in Fla., I would. It would be wonderful for hundreds of people to show up.
Call the 11th circuit court of appeals in Atlanta. Tell the clerk where you're calling from and say politely that you are begging the court to save Terri Schiavo's life.
That # is 404-335-6100 .
I know that they will have orders to not use deadly force against protestors who are coming in non-violently...and if there are fifty protestors to every officer...they will fall back and wait for more orders. In the mean time, Terri can receive the tretment, hydrtion and food she needs.
I'd prefer not to have an arrest record, thanks.
Precious Heavenly Father - We lift up our little sister, Theresa Marie Schiavo, to Thee, and ask that she be nourished and comforted right now - In the Name of our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Nah, thanks anyway.

Bump!!
I think i'm going to have to disagree with the majority of you guys on this forum. This is no way to live your life... her cerebral cortex is jello...
I'm 26 years old and just because of this case, i'm going to have a living will made because i don't want some moronic politicians passing laws to keep me alive if i'm a drooling vegetable just because i didn't put in writing what i would want to do with my life if i'm a condition like terri.
I do sympathise with her in the way they're letting her die though. Starvation/dehydration is not a humaine way to go.
I witnessed my grandfather go through living hell in the last year of his life when he was suffering from alzheimers as well as advanced cancer... and he wanted to just end the pain but doctors would not allow him to end his own suffering.
I'm sick of people telling me what i can and cannot do with my life/body.
I am sure Terri is sick of people telling her that she HAS TO DIE
Terri Schiavo is not in a coma.
Her husband is a cruel, abusive, greedy adulterer, but unfortunately the law is going to be on his side.
And the House summoning a vegetable to testify before a committee hearing isn't?
..but I too, wish this could happen.
A large number of people could make a difference.
God bless you all.
I agree. Just reposting what was already stated.
Her husband is a cruel, abusive, greedy adulterer, but unfortunately the law is going to be on his side.
I agree he evil, I also think he maybe psychotic because the Congress, Senate, White House, FL Gov., most of the people in the U.S. and even the Pope are telling him that Terri SHOULD LIVE!!!! Only a lunatic would not cave-in to that much pressure.
"What are you going to do if you get in? Pour it down her throat and drown her?"
I don't think they even care what happens then.
