There are four other relevant posts that I want to highlight here in case anyone missed them or didn't get pinged. These are a general Terri thread troll alert, an especially thoughtful post about the sincere effort that FReepers are making in Terri's behalf, the Father's Love Letter , and remarks made by Jim Robinson on this issue and reposted here by lonevoice.

This thread serves as a place for posting all new general information and references, along with links following Terri's case, plus information on cable news and talk radio shows dealing with the issue, court cases and press releases. This is also the place to post contact information, prayers and general discussion.
If you have something that qualifies as BREAKING NEWS or FRONT PAGE NEWS, please post it on a separate thread in that category in order to give it maximum exposure and then post a link to the article/thread here so that it will be included in the next update of links. Also, if you post links to articles from original sources and there is also a thread on FR, please link to the FR thread. Many original links become corrupt over time and we want to be able to access the information at will.
There was a tremendous amount of information posted on the previous thread. For anyone who hasn't been following the daily threads, links to relevant posts and information from the previous thread are contained in the body of the present one. I have found that very helpful in trying to find something later. You people are doing a spectacular job of getting information out and also in helping to keep all of us updated here. What a great joint effort. This fight, to me, illustrates beautifully what Free Republic is about and what it means to be a FReeper. Way to go FRiends. Keep up the good work!

Right-do-deathers would never say they want to starve to death themselves. They'll quickly say it about everyone else, except maybe convicted murderers.
Yeah, kinda like all those in favor of abortion have already been born, isn't it!
The fact that nutrition/hydration was not a consideration at the time of Terri's injury is CRUCIAL, sweetliberty. It seems that the Merchants of Death had to spend some time in getting the current laws in place before condemning Terri to death.
I keep forgetting to include this as one of the reasons for Terri's Law being constitutionally sound. The fact that the law was applied retroactively to Terri to include nutrition/hydration as artificial life support when it was not considered life support at the time of her 'collapse' seems grossly unfair.
Another fine point .. it seems Judge Greer gave the okay for George Felos to act as Terri's attorney, to be paid for by her money .. in essence, she's paying him to kill her. Now that MS has to defend himself as acting in Terri's best interest, and George Felos is still on the scene, is he now Michael's attorney? Can he represent both?
Very good point! Felos should not be allowed to represent Michael as a defendant for abuse, neglect and conflict of interest while he is also representing "Terri's interests" is another way to put it.
I think the answer might be that Michael is not a defendant in the criminal sense. Currently Greer has asked him to answer to the allegations made by the Schindlers but they are not criminal charges. If Greer finds that Michael is unfit to be guardian, he will remove Michael and then the Schindlers could ask the District Attorney to file criminal charges if there is a finding of abuse or neglect.
