This city has proclaimed today Terri Schiavo day.
Last year Mrs. Schiavo, 27, suffered a loss of potassium in her body that caused her heart to stop beating and resulted in a coma. She underwent surgery, performed by Dr. Yoshio Hosobudhi of the University of California at San Francisco in December, to implant a stimulator in her brain.
The brain stimulator implant was a success, said her husband, Mike. Mrs. Schiavo is slowly emerging from the coma at the Mediplex Medical Center, a neurological care center in Bradenton, he said. She will undergo at least a year of speech, occupational and physical therapy.

The brain stimulator implant was a success, said her husband, Mike. Mrs. Schiavo is slowly emerging from the coma at the Mediplex Medical Center, a neurological care center in Bradenton, he said. She will undergo at least a year of speech, occupational and physical therapy.
A Feb. 9 Valentine's dance, sponsored by the Vina Del Mar Island Assocation, raised $1,575 for the Theresa Schiavo Trust Fund.
To contribute to Terri's trust fund, send a check payable to the Theresa Schiavo Trust Fund to First Union National Bank, 5250 East Bay Drive, Clearwater 34624.

Thank you. I don't know how readable that second image is. If you click on it, it brings you to a google archive of that day's paper. It's probably easier to read. It has other articles that can be pretty interesting. Like the ad for a lawyer who will prepare a living will for $15. Here's a larger image for anyone who can't access the google archive.

I’m fine. I hope all is well with you, too!

Thank you for not forgetting about Terri.
And let's not forget about Judge (George) Greer. What a digusting and vile man.
Let's also not forget about the equally disgusting and vile Michael Schiavo.

Their evil deeds will be remembered and they will have to face up to them, sooner or later.

Thanks for the post. I can never forget Terri - she’s the reason I finally signed onto FR after many years of lurking.
Wonder how her Mom is coping w/o Terri’s dad. Just love that family!

Too bad Mikey and crony Judges cut off TERRI’s rehab. That money was used to murder her.
