Here is the lattest e-mail from Debi:

Can you get this out to Free Republic?...Just sent a 5 page letter to Atty Gen John Ashcroft and Delegate Bob Marshall compiling all the info you and others have sent that we could currently use. My deepest gratitude to all! The letter requests three criminal investigations into Michael, Schiavo, Judge Greer and Hospice - good stuff that will make DC's hair stand on end....go to www.cogforlife.org/schiavoDC.htm (case sensitive - must capitalize DC) God Bless, Debi

"6) The Americans With Disabilities Act (A.D.A.), 42 U.S.C. Sections 12101 et seq., provides that necessary and appropriate rehabilitation services and physical/motor skill therapy not be denied a substantially disabled patient in the United States of America."

That alone should be enough to nail a few people.

Great news, but heck!

I'd have thought this would have been submitted a long time ago!

A Catholic miraculous medal... was brought to Terri Schiavo to be placed on her person, bedside or where she could visibly see it in her room at Woodside Hospice...We were fore-warned that if the medal was placed anywhere in her room or on her body it would be thrown away.

[sarcasm]
Mike "knows" Terri doesn't want a medal in her room.

Felos says that after watching the movie "A Miracle at Fatima" Terri casually said to Mike," No religious medals for me!!"

Need help with MS interview on Larry King

From Debi:

I took notes through the whole show...what do you think of the following? Did I miss anything important? Share with FR and tell them I need input from them too....
God bless,
Debi
Couple of points on Larry King Live:
1) When Terri first collapsed, Michael claims he worked late that night ... got home 2:00AM, at 4:30 he awoke to hear a thump and went out to find Terri collapsed in the hall and called 911.
FACT:
Michael did not call 911. He called Terri's father who called 911.

2) Michael claims the "falling out" with Terri's parents occurred on 2-14-03 and it was because the Schindlers wanted Terri's money.
FACT:
The "falling out" occurred because Michael was not providing therapy as promised in the court award. Terri's parents questioned if they provided the care, would the money from the settlement be used to help them out financially - which Michael refused to do.

3) Michael claimed he has provided therapy for Terri after she collapsed. I still need to get the facts on this Bob - but I do know that the care at Bayfront medical and the trip he made with Terri to California was done under the original insurance on Terri - not as part of the therapy he promised to provide for the rest of her life to the courts in 1993.
FACT:
Michael has NEVER provided any therapy after he received the settlement.

4) Michael claimed repeatedly he was following Terri's wishes
FACT:
Michael never mentioned Terri had ANY wishes about witholding medical treatment until AFTER he received the award money from the court in 1993. Subsequently, he began to withold all treatment for Terri - including antibiotics for a UTI (urinary tract infection) and by posting a DNR on her medical charts.

5) Michael claimed that the nurse who testified had a grudge against him because he was so adamant about caring for Terri and he admits he was hard on the nurses.
FACT:
Michael only flew into rages whenever anyone tried to care for Terri properly. (see affadavits from all nurses)

6) Michael claimed that the head nurse who cared for Terri for 4 years never saw any response and that Terri made the same "noises" of response when no one was in the room.
FACT:
How can anyone hear what is said when no one is in the room? In addition, the nurses caring for Terri, her parents and Msgr. Malanowski ALL said Terri responds. Shall we believe Michael or a priest???

7) Michael blamed the parents insistence on letting Terri live on the Right to Life right wing advocates filling their heads
FACT:
The "right wing activists for RTL" never got involved in this case until 2000 - yet Terri's parents have fought for guardianship and Terri's life since 1993. (I can personally testify to this as one of those "right wingers"!)

8) Michael claims 3 swallowing tests were done
FACT:
The barium swallowing test needed to ascertain if Terri can swallow foods has NEVER been done.

9) Michael claimed that 19 judges agreed with them and that the US Supreme Court also agreed with their testimony.
FACT:
This case has been passed from judge to judge to appelate to the Fl Supreme Court back to judge after judge on jurisdiction - not merits of the case. In addition the US Supreme Court refused to hear it - they never agreed with Schiavo.

10) Michael and Felos claimed doctor after doctor testified on their behalf that there is no hope for Terri and she is PVS.
FACT:
13 medical professionals on Terri's behalf (10 doctors, 3 nurses) testified to completely opposite opinions - none of which Judge Greer would hear.

11) One caller asked Michael if he really loved his wife and wanted to respect her wish to die, why didn't he move her to another state where the laws are more liberal, like Oregon, since he is the legal guardian.
RESPONSE:
Michael stumbled furiously and stated that he didn't know if the law would let him.

12) Michael stated that removing the feeding tube would be painless death.
FACT:
Medical experts, including David Stephens, Executive Director of the Christian Medical Association vehemently disagreed and described Terri's death as a slow, painful process.

13) Michael claimed he did the same thing to his own parents...
NO RESPONSE...we are shocked.

14) In viewing the video of Terri, Michael claims this is reflex action, Terri is brain dead, the video was edited down to just pertinent clips...
FACT/RESPONSE:
CNN Larry King then asked if they could go in and film Terri? Response..."You can view the videos we have."... Questioned again..."Could CNN come in there and do their own video to see what is going on? Answer: "NO - IT WOULD VIOLATE HER PRIVACY."

15) CNN asked if Michael would take a lie detector test...Michael said he would have to decline answering that.

Keep this info handy...Michael lied through his teeth!

Ping. Gee, Felos and MS forgot to mention Free Republic last night on Larry King Alive.

Check this out and see post 1. Mishu.

Attorney Pat Anderson just said on Glennbeck.com that "half a million people are helping Terri from their computers." I believe the mission to save Terri's life is a miracle in progress. Fregards, FV
