Terri Schiavo's death date

[jasJis]

Latest:
-Judge Greer reject the Department of Children & Families motion to investigate charges of physical abuse and neglect (that surfaced when medical records were made public). DCF wanted 60 days to investigate.

-Someone has offered Micheal Schiavo $1,000,000 to release custody of Terri.

-Yet another Nobel Prize winning Doctor has said that therapy could possibly help Terri become more stable in being cognizant and allow her to consume food and water on her own.

Remember. The only 'medical' means being used to keep Terri alive is intravaneous feeding and hydration. Micheal has blocked therapy and attempts to teach Terri to eat and drink orally. THAT was the beginning of the fight between the parents and Micheal. The parents are willing to accept Terri's death if she chokes to death, but Micheal hasn't allowed it for over 10 years becase it might work and Terri would be like any other severley brain damaged person who is only receiving basic care.

burnsy,

I have a friend, probably more traditional than you. Friend -by Church Law- could not even have an investigation of a decree of nullity of the marriage, unless and until a civil divorce was obtained.

And this was with Friend having proof of the non-intent of the spouse in marrying in the first place.

The children nor she was safe. She was content with the separation of bed and board but the civil and ecclesiastic laws could NOT accomodate the purity and safety of herself and her children unless D-I-V-O-R-C-E was done.

She lives a chaste life, and is a saint, imo.

It's damned rough out there.

Thank God that Congress and the President have done the right thing!

[quote]The fate of a brain-damaged Florida woman is back in the courts, after U.S. President George Bush signed into law emergency legislation aimed at keeping Terri Schiavo alive.

[b]Bush signed the bill at 1:11 a.m. ET[/b], shortly after the House of Representatives passed the legislation by a 203-58 margin. The Senate unanimously supported it on Sunday.

The legislation calls for a federal court to review the case of Terri Schiavo, who had her feeding tube removed on Friday, under a court order.

If the federal court decides to hear the case, the feeding tube would be re-inserted as Terri's case is heard.[/quote]

[Gal. 5:22,23]

A federal judge will hear Terri's case at the hour of mercy today - 3:00 pm. The Divine Mercy Chaplet is part of my prayer time, I hope you will join me today in prayer for her and for this judge.

I'm glad that Bush is supporting Teri's life.

Her husband has to face a judgement far worse, than any on this Earth.

These conspiracy theories are lame, man. To paint all liberals and secularists like blood thirsty demon worshippers is flatly ignorant. My mom is a liberal, she is also a christian, she certianly does not condone nor takes part of any spirit of destruction. Yet your remarks blanket her and people like her. You want a holy war, as much as white supremacist want a race war. You need to quell the spirit of destruction within yourself.

It's her husband's job to direct her medical care and they interfered because they didn't agree with him. [/quote]
So starving someone to death is "medical care"?

Spivey, you should, just once, stop talking in evasive euphemisms, and face the reality of the issues.

Schiavo Facing a Cruel Death, Says Vatican Official

"Not Euthanasia in Literal Sense," Insists Bishop Sgreccia

VATICAN CITY, MARCH 22, 2005 (Zenit.org).- A Vatican official assailed a U.S. court decision against Terri Schiavo, saying that the brain-damaged Florida woman is facing a "cruel" death.

Bishop Elio Sgreccia, president of the Pontifical Academy for Life, said he heard with "disconcert and sadness" the news today that U.S. District Judge James Whittemore in Florida rejected the urgent request by Schiavo's parents to have her feeding tube reinserted.

Schiavo's husband has been fighting to end her nutrition in order to bring about her death. Her parents are appealing Whittemore's decision in a federal appeals court.

"I must confirm the moral judgment which does not change: It is an illicit and grave act," Bishop Sgreccia told Vatican Radio.

"It is especially grave, as it seems that the decision over a person's life or death today is a court issue," he said.

"Therefore, I confirm the negative judgment, not only on the fact that food has been taken away from her, but also on the decision that tries to legitimize such a thing. I hope that these examples will not be followed by other similar decisions," the prelate added.

Bishop Sgreccia explained that the decision of the U.S. justice "is not euthanasia in the literal sense of the term; it is not a 'good death,' it is a death that is induced in a cruel way. It is not a medical act. It is about taking water and food away to cause death."

"I think that those who have expressed solidarity with the family are doing an act of great merit," as well as those who have defended her publicly, he stressed.

The bishop criticized "a mechanism of exaggeration that seeks to favor the legitimization of so-called euthanasia, in cases such as this one in which interests of another kind are often at stake."

If there are good and moral liberals im not talking about them. As for Secularists, they are converting our CATHOLIC colleges into hell holes. I've read quotes from famous secularists, i know their mission. I have no spirit of destruction, i have righteous indignation. That things that are catholic can't even remain catholic in this country, the liberals and secularists are always the ones at the root of it all. They cant leave anything alone they have to slither they're way into everything.
