TERRI SCHIAVO MISSING - REMOVED FROM HOSPITAL W/O FAMILY'S CONSENT [Update: She's back at Hospice]

Bay News 9 TV - Florida | 10/22/03 | dandelion

[dandelion]

Terri's brother, Bobby, just reported that Terri is MISSING!! He has been waiting all day to see her, he got the green light, and she's gone...

News 9 reporter said she's gone back to hospice, but the family does not know where she is and has NO CONFIRMATION.

BREAKING...

[tutstar]

oooooooo

[najida]

But hospice is where they had her to let her die.

I don't see this as a good thing.

[tray-sea]

nevermind.. thanks for the other post.. if your an ems.. i trust your source :-)

[dandelion]

Confirmation please? Link... she was removed without permission of the family. The order is being disobeyed, regardless of location.

[Dog]

The hospice did not try to kill her......a court issued an order to remove the feeding tube and they followed that judges order...

[Calpernia]

Thank you.

[The Red Zone]

Well it might be good news then. Or her doc says she's gonna die of the organ damage (and of course Mikey-poo says no treatment whatsoever that would stop this) so to hospice she goes to die.

[Robert A. Cook, PE]

Nonsense.

The "hospice" specializes in murder (ok - government-funded "assisted living until death" - NOT intensive care for a person NEAR death.

[Velveeta]

The husband is probably under just a wee bit of pressure realizing that the whole world knows what a shmuck he is.

[irish_lad]

Prayers going up for Terri

No amount of prayers or any medical intervention will help this poor person regain brain function. Although I don't agree with the feeding tube withdrawal, I do believe she should be mercifully allowed to die. She is never coming back, and it is shame upon her dignity that her parents are gasping for a miracle that will never occur. No person, to my knowledge, who has been diagnosed as being in a vegetative state, has ever regained consciousness. Death is not the enemy in this case.

[Arpege92]

I don't know how Terri's family has had the control not to wrap their hands around Terri's husbands's throat.

[Robert A. Cook, PE]

Get real -

She needs 2-3 days of intensive care, then a couple of days (at least) of specialized care even to become ready for surgery to receive the tube!

[fiesti]

I am just beside myself with grief. How in the hell can this be happening in the United States of America.. I sta ed earlier in a thank you to Jeb that yesterday I was again proud to be a floridian and an American but not now..How do the courts keep letting this bastard commit murder in front of the whole world with the courts blessings. if somebody puts a gun to your head don't bother calling the police and no sense trying to get to your weapon that has to have a safty lock on it and safe bullets. it would be horrible if we hurt a criminal and caused him undo stress.. If this country wants to save money then take away all the appeals mass murders etc have before justice is done.. Do you have any idea what the jails cost taxpayers. I am a nurse and had an assigment 1 time where I had to give out drugs at the county jail and I had to give prisoners drugs to support their habit but we deny tERRI A DISABLED PERSON WHO HAS NEVER COMMITTED A CRIME TO DEATH FOR WHAT ?? BEING BRAIN DISABLED. sORRY FOLKS FOR THE RANT JUST HEARD THIS AWFUL NEWS AND am very upset..\\Sorry for yellings capslock by error

[Ladysmith]

INCOMING!!!

[pollywog]

My brother in law saw on the news here in Los Angeles, a segmant showing a ambulance taking her back to a Hospice he said.

[NRA1776]

Although Terri is not actually terminally ill, she has been staying at the Hospice in Pinellas Park for some time now. Perhaps her husband has her ther to bolster his argument that she is terminal and should be terminated.

[SheLion]

do believe she should be mercifully allowed to die.

It should be up to the Lord to take her. Not another human being.

[Robert A. Cook, PE]

That is merely a guess.

[Dog]

Confirmation please? Link... she was removed without permission of the family

Michael is her legal guardian until one can be appointed......I don't think he needs the families permission to move her..

[Thumper1960]

Hopefully, Michael Schiavo would feel like trading places with the Cubbies fan who muffed the foul ball.

[madison10]

She was not in a "vegetative state" from reports of the family. The doctor in collusion with MS and his lawyer said this. Vegetables don't usually smile.

[The Red Zone]

Other persons in a state like Terri's have returned to some level of conscious communication. Nobody is expecting her to jump out of the bed, run a marathon and become a PhD scholar.

[The Red Zone]

www.veggietales.com ???

[CindyDawg]

I agree that it is better than a lot of other places she could have gone to but they specialize in the comfort of the dieing. She needs agressive treatment to recover.

[tray-sea]

i know i know.. i am just speaking out of emotion.. and since there's a connections b/t felos and hospice i suppose i've jumped to some of my own conclusions. thanks for the correction.. you are right -- but i find it hard that they could comply with such an order.. but then again i am not one of the hospice nurses..

[Keith in Iowa]

>>vegetative state, has ever regained consciousness

Dude - she's not unconcious.

[GYPSY286]

I suggest you do a google search on it. I have just read today about a woman who "woke-up" after 16 years in a PVS and I remember reading about the man who was comatose for 19 years and woke up and said "pepsi". It's happened.

[jwalsh07]

No person, to my knowledge, who has been diagnosed as being in a vegetative state, has ever regained consciousness.

Then your knowledge is limited in scope and your opinion should be treated as uninformed, no?

There are lots of folks who have recovered from this state....a rep from Not Dead Yet has been inFL to support the Schindlers..

There is big move in medical circles to kill those who are not "productive" check MarMema FR page

[Lion in Winter]

This is NOT the issue. Her parents WANT to take care of her until she passes NATURALLY AND PEACEFULLY.... not STARVED PAINFULLY TO DEATH by the order of her whore-monger of a husband.

[dandelion]

She smiles laughs and moves. She moves her legs and tries to speak. That's NOT BRAIN DEAD.

[Gelato]

Nonsense. The "hospice" specializes in murder (ok - government-funded "assisted living until death" - NOT intensive care for a person NEAR death.

Hardly the place a person in her condition should be going at this time.

[deport]

Whatever..... See where she surfaces.

[Calpernia]

Gov. Bush did more than he can do. What needs to be done now is a private investigation on Felos, Schiavo, Greer, and the hospice.

If this is a pattern or a pattern of other illegal types of action, then charges or a civil action needs to take place.

[irish_lad]

It should be up to the Lord to take her. Not another human being.

The Lord has already taken her. We are keeping an organism alive only at this time.

[visualops]

You and me both!

[Thumper1960]

YIKES!

You can't post that!

Well...at least, not the whole word!

:-o

[JennysCool]

The way things are looking it is important to keep her alive -- if only to ascertain the truth about her condition. We are seeing some WILDLY WEIRD behavior by the husband, aided and abetted by the attorney. Come to think of it -- is it possible for some law enforcement agency to begin a new investigation as a result of the allegations that this was foul play? Requiring all evidence to be preserved?

[Calpernia]

>>>Terri has been moved back to the Hospice in Pinellas Park.

How do you know that?

[Petronski]

Everybody relax.....Terri has been moved back to the Hospice in Pinellas Park.

This is only slightly better than complete abduction and disappearance. This is not cause to relax.

[pollywog]

Confirmation please? Link... she was removed without permission of the family. The order is being disobeyed, regardless of location.

My brother in law saw footage of them taking her to a Hospice. Channel 7 Los Angeles.

[sinkspur]

she was removed without permission of the family.

The "family" is Michael Schiavo, not the Schindlers.

[The Red Zone]

Where does the soul reside? Even if in the cerebrum, she still has a bit of that left.

[najida]

You haven't ever had a loved one in a coma, have you?

[CindyDawg]

Not to mention lab to monitor kidney function

[Lion in Winter]

BTTT

[NeoCaveman]

I'm going to heartily agree with your post (while it is still here)

[dandelion]

Felos was Chairman of the Board for the Hospice in 1997 - he was listed with Board of Directors docs until 2001. The hospice works for George J Felos - the attorney for Michael Schiavo...

[DLfromthedesert]

Some "family"
