A year ago this day, FV, I was convinced it would be impossible in this country for the bad guys to take the step. I was sure it would never get to pulling her tubes. It was so far away from possibility in my mind, I never thought it out.
Our country, our court system, corrupt as they might be, simply could not let this happen. Somebody with courage would rise up and stop this whole charade. I just wondered who that might be.
And this is from AP...
One year ago: Doctors in Florida, acting on orders of a state judge, removed Terri Schiavo s feeding tube. (Despite the efforts of congressional Republicans to intervene and repeated court appeals by Schiavos parents, the brain-damaged woman died on March 31, 2005, at age 41.)
