Terri Schiavo's Family Launches New Radio Program on Protecting the Disabled
Life News ^ | 3/6/08 | Steven Ertelt

Tampa, FL (LifeNews.com) -- The foundation that Terri Schiavo's family created after her death is continuing its efforts to help the elderly and disabled obtain appropriate medical care. The foundation is launching a new radio program on a Tampa station that will be simulcast on the Internet and later expanded to other Florida stations.

The Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation will start the new America's Lifeline program this weekend life from the Tampa studios of Talk Radio 860 WGUL, a Christian station.

Prominent radio health care advocate Cary Hall will co-sponsor the program along with Terri's brother Bobby Schinder and her sister Suzanne Vitadamo, the foundation's directors.

Hall is also the host of a successful radio show called The Health Insurance Advocate which broadcasts from two Midwest stations.

"America's Lifeline is something we've wanted to do for some time," Vitadamo told LifeNews.com on Thursday.

"With Cary Hall's health care expertise my family's experience trying to save Terri, and now running her foundation which works to save those like Terri, we'll be able to educate Americans and raise awareness about the euthanasia movement like never before," she added.

Vitadamo said the program would focus on controversial cases of people who have been subjected to potential euthanasia or denial of lifesaving medical treatment, such as Lauren Richardson in Delaware.

It will help people learn about the best advanced directives for treatment, learn about the dangers of assisted suicide, focus on state and federal laws and explain how hospice care can be helpful.

The program will also delve into the controversial futile care theory whereby hospitals and doctors are more routinely giving up on providing care for patients they consider "too far gone."

The America's Lifeline debut is set for 3 PM EST on Saturday, March 15, 2008 and it will also be streamed worldwide via the Internet at http://860wgul.townhall.com.

The program is poised to expand into other Florida radio markets including Orlando and Miami.

This is long overdue!

Boggles the mind that there is even a need to educate the masses about murder um, euthanasia.

What, it's not being aired from Florida? Sorry, couldn't resist.

This will be a great show I’m sure, but I have one quick question.

What happens to folks who terminate their listening to the show before it reaches it’s natural end?

Do I get a vote? I think this should be a Terri’s Daily thread.

This is wonderful news.

I think a new Terri Daily Thread for March sounds find but we can’t forget about Lauren Richardson. We better LINK BACK to Lauren daily too and bring her JPEGS to a new March Dailies. It’s up to 8m.

It’s up to 8mmmauser but if this becomes the March Terri Dailies, we must remember that Lauren Richardson’s life is in danger in New Jersey. She breathes on her own, is alert and aware (video on Hannity & Colmes). Her life is in a court’s hands. Let Lauren Live.

MICHAEL SAVAGE mentions Terri Schiavo tonight. He said, “It always starts with just one.” He inquires are they liberals? Yes, liberals killed Terri including liberal republicans! Especially liberal republicans who are Florida’s major death cultists.

Should be a very good, interesting, helpful and contraversial program and I am so glad this is happening!!! It will be worth watching for sure.

And thank goodness we are not getting another program about Bad Girls, Homosexual/bisexual romances/affairs, Spoiled housewives, Single sex/Teenage sex/Sex in the city, People exchanging spouses, sit-coms that bash men, (and I am a woman), "stars" and their immoral and drug lifestyles, all the crime programs, etc., etc. Even the Disney channel is full of silly teen programs where the kids are spoiled, rich, and disrespectful, and only concerned with trashing someone else. I am sooo sick of those shows and seem to only be able to watch old movies on TNT and FOX news anymore. Or rent movies and turn off the TV! I really liked when the writers were on strike - they ran lots of the old programs where morals mattered.

I apologize if I seemed to get off the subject with my comment. I am really happy to support Terri’s family with their show. It is about time!

From Pocono...

Physical houses of worship are being destroyed all over the world, if not by terrorists, then by lack of attendance and clergy or the need to close. Unless the faithful begin to stand up in great numbers and put a stop to what is going on in this country politically, morality will be a thing of the past.

Instead many of them continue to vote for politicians who believe: Roe vs. Wade should not be overturned; that killing babies for embryonic stem cell research will find cures (ESCR can't get past tissue rejection problems whereas Adult SCR is successful); that everyone has the right to a "dignified" death (murder of Teri Schiavo); and that eliminating "defective" or undesirable races by legalized abortion helps to "save the planet." Google "Margaret Sanger's Negro Project" and "Bernard Nathanson's confession."

The people were and still are being misled. The pro-abort elite in power thrive on negative eugenics. It is part of their plan...........

Religious faithful must get up and vote
