When Life Becomes an Inconvenience--Jan Markell Olive Tree Ministries, Inc. www.olivetreeviews.org Semi-Weekly Review of the News - March 21, 2005 I have a built-in radar system that registers a warning when it comes to "mercy killing." My Jewish grandparents fled a section of Russia about ten years before Hitler came to power as they sensed trouble was in the wind. This heritage actually caused me to research the Holocaust and write a best-selling book about it, "Trapped in Hitler's Hell" available through my Web site or print newsletter. In October, 1939, Hitler ordered "mercy killing" of the sick and disabled,...

Jeb Bush not only possesses the "supreme executive authority in the state," but must act now to save Terri Schiavo. When asked if Gov. Bush has done enough to help the disabled woman, Keyes said, "Of course not. He hasn't done anything. She is being starved to death!" Keyes made it clear on...

Hugh's been strong in defense of Terri -- till yesterday, when he devoted a lot of time denouncing those (like Dr. James Kennedy) who have called for Jeb to step forward - despite Judge Greer's injunctions - and take action to save Terri Schiavo from a judicially-decreed death. Hugh was going on about the "rule of law" and quoting the old chestnut from "Man for All Seasons," about how if we tear down the laws to get at the devil, we have nothing to defend ourselves when he turns on us.But Hugh doesn't get it: IT's the ACTIVIST JUDGES who've...

PINELLAS PARK, Fla. - They built it—but almost nobody came. From the welcoming entryway to the Woodside Hospice, bright orange snow fence stretched 500 feet to the east on 102nd Street and another 500 feet to the west. The barrier—at some points four layers deep in a town where it never snows—was there not just to protect the hospice complex. Pinellas Park police installed the fence to restrain and control the big crowds they were told might arrive from all over the United States to protest what was happening inside the hospice, where Terri Schiavo edged near death after medical...

They met by chance at a dentist's office. Neither was searching for love, friends say. She had been through a divorce. His wife lived in a nursing home. The years had left him heartbroken and lonely, friends say. He bonded with the new woman over dinners and long talks. It was complicated, but they fell in love, friends say. Still, Michael Schiavo has always made it very clear: "He has one wife, and her name is Terri," said a family friend, Gloria Centonze. "He does not refer to anyone else as his wife, and never has." How, then, to explain...

(VANITY) For Open Discussion:Been noticing much more media proclivity to focus in on the big protest signs being carried at Terri's hospice.These signs say a lot in a few words. Because many Americans may focus in on them instead of the story. Busy folks multitasking who have the TV sound down. Folks in a department store or going through an airport terminal or at an auto repair shop waiting room or at a rental car agency, wherever in the heartland of America, this Saturday.The more thinking by all of us about these signs and their potent messages to millions of...

PINELLAS PARK, Fla. (AP) -- Jennifer Johnson, barefoot and in her pajamas, ran to her grandfather's bedside once a hospice worker said his death was moments away. She got there - one minute too late. Johnson said the chaos outside the hospice where Terri Schiavo is dying kept her from saying goodbye. When Johnson arrived, a police officer demanded identification; she had none. And after a hospice employee cleared her, another officer halted her for a search with a metal detector. The delays lasted three to four minutes - the last of her grandfather's life. "It's a terrible, extra obstacle...

Is it just me, or does it seem exceedingly suspicious to others that the only way for Terri Schiavo to shed even the slightest light on what exactly happened to her in her home that February morning in 1990 is if she could be rehabilitated to some degree – which her husband, the only other person home with her at the time of her "collapse," absolutely forbids in any way, shape, or form? Continues... =============================================================== Death by forced dehydration very peaceful. Trust us. So, from all the break-neck developments this past week, I gather that Democrats favor waging an unrelenting...

Hours after a judge ordered that Terri Schiavo was not to be removed from her hospice, a team of state agents were en route to seize her and have her feeding tube reinserted -- but they stopped short when local police told them they would enforce the judge's order, The Herald has learned. Agents of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement told police in Pinellas Park, the small town where Schiavo lies at Hospice Woodside, on Thursday that they were on the way to take her to a hospital to resume her feeding. For a brief period, local police, who...

Toward Tradition and Rabbi Daniel Lapin urge the husband of neurology patient Terri Schindler-Schiavo, and Judge George Greer, who issued her death warrant, to recognize that starving an invalid is murder, not mercy. Florida Circuit Court Judge Greer Thursday last week re-interpreted the law, calling food and water "medical treatment," thus allowing Michael Schiavo to withdraw Mrs. Schindler-Schiavo's feeding tube. This also ignores the rights of Terri's primary caretakers and loyal defenders, her mother and father. The court has ordered all food and water withheld beginning this Friday, March 18th; it is expected to take her between 1- 2 weeks...

<p>Just a few decades ago cases of brain death, vegetative state, and locked-in syndrome were rare. These days, medicine's "therapeutic triumphs" have made these neurologic conditions rather frequent. For all its power to restore life and health, we now realize, modern medicine also has great potential for prolonging a dehumanizing existence for the patient.</p>

2005-03-23) -- With his wife desiccated and starving in a nursing home bed, Michael Schiavo revealed today that Terri would have wanted an advance of at least $5 million for her "right-to-die" book, and twice that plus "a piece of the boxoffice" for the movie rights. "Since the day I remembered that Terri told me she didn't want eat or drink if she became disabled, this has been a human rights case," said Mr. Schiavo. "Book and movie rights are basic human rights, and I'll continue to fight to see Terri's wishes carried out." The Florida man said Terri's agent...

The torrent of cant from politicians and lawyers in the case of Terri Schiavo has rendered Horsefeathers silent---until now. Now that the politico-legal proceedings are just about over, one fact seems to have been consistently ignored: no one, neither Michael Schiavo, nor Terri's parents, none of the lawyers and pundits, not even the patient herself, knows what she feels, thinks or wants, or even if she is capable of feeling, thinking or wanting. The legal efforts to determine the "facts" of what she wanted 15 years ago are utterly absurd and irrelevant to her present state. The offhand comments of...

E-mail Author Author Archive Send to a Friend <% printurl = Request.ServerVariables("URL")%> Print Version March 25, 2005, 8:23 a.m. Beyond a Reasonable Doubt Terri Schiavo has been denied due process of law. Terri Schiavo has been ordered by a state judge to be killed by starvation and dehydration. The order implicates her Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights not to be deprived of life absent due process of law — the courts that have examined this case do not dispute this indisputable point. I believe it is unquestionably the law of the United States — today, already, without any need to...

After September 11th, my children came up to me afraid to go to school because they thought they might be attacked by terrorists and I assumed that I had all the answers. I could explain how far away from anything important we live and how many times they were more likely to be struck by lightning than hurt by a terrorist, but they still want to play in the rain. I would then open the newspaper, or turn on the television and show them all the steps the government was taking to protect them, "See all those soldiers? Every one...

TAMPA, Fla. — In what may prove to be Terri Schiavo's parents' "final shot," their attorney was trying to persuade a judge Friday that the severely brain-damaged woman had expressed her will to live. According to an emergency motion filed late Friday afternoon, attorney Barbara Weller said that during a hospice visit on March 18, she asked Schiavo pointedly what her wishes were. Weller directed Schiavo to say the words, "I want to live."
