Family Says Terri Schiavo Moved

Brother: Brain-Damaged Woman No Longer At Hospital

UPDATED: 9:34 p.m. EDT October 22, 2003

CLEARWATER, Fla. -- The family of brain-damaged Terri Schiavo, who just had her feeding tube reattached by order of the governor, says the woman has apparently been moved. The family got word Wednesday evening that they would be able to visit the 39-year-old Schiavo in the hospital after earlier being barred from her bedside by her husband, Michael Schiavo. But when they got there, her brother, Bob Schindler Jr., said he was told by nurses that his sister was no longer there.

"Now they're telling me she's not here, so I don't know what's going on. Nobody is telling us anything," Schindler said.

Florida Gov. Jeb Bush intervened in the Schiavo case Tuesday after the Legislature empowered him to do so. A feeding tube that had earlier been removed from the woman was ordered reinserted.

Thank you! I wasn't seeing anything on the major outlets or gopbi. Are they sure she is moved, or repeating just what the nurse told them?
