I can't believe this Terri Schiavo thing.

As a father I would be there killing some SOB the get my daughter feed.

Has America sunk to this point where we starve a person the death?????

This will go down as one of the "Blackest Things in American History"

For the first time in my life I am going to write letters to the papers
of the US and maybe the world.


This is un-real.

I Agree with you on that,Burr.I have been following the news about Terri
since day one at www.worldnetdaily.com and other news sites.It is a
terrible tragedy of what is happening to that poor defensless woman.Walt
Kelly's cartoon character Pogo Possum always said it best.We Have Met
The Enemy And He Is Us.

Except that it's not the father's decision. The husband is honoring
his wife's wish to not be kept alive.

Prove it. There's nothing in writing - just the words of her husband
(who, maybe not coincidentally, has denied her rehabilitation, and
stands to gain a million dollars at her death).

Prove it.

I'm impressed, Al. I've never seen you pack so much nonsense into such a
small post.

You might not want to go to this link. It pretty much destroys that post of
yours.

It's already proven. You *do* have access to the internet, don't you?

Relativity to shortwave? I see none.

Please don't feed the trolls.

As a matter of fact I do, and I can't find any credible source that says
he'll get a million dollars when she dies. I can find more misinformation
and rumor than you can shake a stick at, though.

Here's what you said (and subsequently snipped):

Prove it. There's nothing in writing - just the words of her husband
(who, maybe not coincidentally, has denied her rehabilitation, and
stands to gain a million dollars at her death).

I can't find a single credible source that says he'll inherit any cash, much
less the specific sum of one million dollars. I -can- provide cites like
this one, though. It's
from WSTV in Florida, and is dated 3/16/2005.


From http://www1.wsvn.com/news/articles/local/C71187/:

quote

"George Felos, Schiavo's lawyer, said his client never received or had any
control over a $1 million medical malpractice award. Felos said the money is
gone, used for her medical and guardianship expenses. A hospice program is
caring for her now.

"It's not about the money," said Schiavo, who said he will not receive any
life insurance money upon Terri's death. "This is about Terry. It's not
about the Schindlers, it's not about the legislators, it's not about me,
it's about what Terry Schiavo wanted."

end quote

I think that the facts of the matter have been spread around and distorted
in the telling to the point where they're almost beyond recognition. If you
have a credible source that shows that he will in fact receive life
insurance money, I'm all ears.

Incidentally, I find this quote from the same source to be noteworthy:

quote

"Schiavo, now a father in another relationship, said he would not give
guardianship to the Schindlers because of her father's earlier testimony.

"Mr. Schindler testified in court ... to keep Terri alive he would cut her
arms and legs off and put her on a ventilator just to keep her alive. So why
would I give her to a man that would do that to you?" Schiavo said."

end quote

I've also been all over http://www.terrisfight.net/ which is maintained by
The Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation in conjunction with her family, and I
can't find anything there about Schiavo collecting on a life insurance
policy. That may be significant, or it may not be.

Euthanasia via the administration of excess amounts of pain medications
has been going on for some time. When the patient's family is given
control over the medication, it is out of the Doctor's hands how the
medication is administered. A terminal patient will not likely elicit an
autopsy, since the pending death of the patient is known to the attending
Doctor.

The authorities, seeing a deceased terminal patient, without any obvious
external wounds, are not likely to pry further. (i.e. no knives, gun
shots, ropes, etc.)

My concern lies with recent proclamations about limiting health care
costs, pursuant to Medicare. One startling statement said that it will be
up to the doctors to determine when the end of life occurs. To most
people this would mean a terminal patient being mercifully euthanized by
a doctor, but I fear that the application will become widespread,
euthanizing patients that are handicapped and of no use to society, as
their long term continued care will be more of a burden to the Medicare
system (and other health care programs) then the last stages of a
terminal patient.

Then too will arise the situation where people diagnosed with a terminal
disorder, having the options of life sustaining therapies, so that they
may have an additional 6 months or more of life, will be told that these
therapies are too much of a burden to society, and that they "must" be
shuffled of this mortal coil prematurely. My next door neighbor has had
cancer for years now, cancers in the brain, organs, and so forth. Known
as CUPS (Cancer of Unknown Primary Source), he has so far been successful
in fighting this terrible disease, being there as his children grow, and
he undergoes home Chemotherapy. One cannot make rash judgments
concerning when "end of life" has been reached.

Terry Schiavo's case is a blemish on the soul of the American people. We
are now performing abortions on adults, something that I fear is going to
become increasingly common. As another said in this post, it would be
illegal to starve an animal to death.

The U.S. Supreme (sic) Court, refusing to hear Terry's case, has heard
and ruled on many bizarre cases over the years. One of the cases involved
an admitted murdered, also a intravenous drug user over the years. Since
he was to be executed by lethal injection and his many years of
intravenous drug use had marred his veins, he may suffer as the I.V. was
being inserted for his execution, and, if they missed the vein and
administered the lethal injection anyway, he "may" suffer chest pain. The
Supreme Court agreed with him and ordered a re-evaluation of his
sentence.

Go Figure.

Dr. Artaud

Understand, when it comes to an innocent (as in the Schaivo case), I
would always choose life over death until there was no other option
remaining. But in those cases where they are bound and determined to
kill them -- for Heaven's sake, don't starve them to death for weeks;
administer a lethal dose of something and get it over with as quickly
as possible!
