The STING of Tears

As I sit here typing away, going through this moment alone, I cannot stop the stinging of the tears rolling down my face.

At this VERY moment as I write, Terri's family is giving a statement to the press outside of the hospice where they are beginning her torture and execution. Is it on ANY news station? I cannot find it ANYWHERE.........

How can this be? I am awe stricken and devastated. I haven't been able to eat for days....... Each time I look at the food, I think of Terri. The very smell of the food makes me nauseous.

So much of me wants to curl up in a ball and wail. I am crying out, but who is listening? If I feel this way, how must Terri's family feel? How does Judge Greer feel? Better yet, does he feel? I know Michael and his fiance are happy. Imagine that. The person awarded the decisions in your healthcare is someone whom is HAPPY to not just see you die, but spend the money given to you for your care on making it happen. He not only seeks to kill her, but seeks to kill her in a way that is beyond the cruelty we impose onto convicted killers and animals.

Where is America? Where is the country I grew up loving and being so proud of. Our history is not perfect, but it is the BEST record of ANY country when it comes to protecting the most vulnerable of our world. No longer. Now the scraping of babies from their mother's wombs is done thousands of times a day. Today we step into the realm of killing handicapped women and the MSM aids in the lies to aid in this treacherous act.


Michael Schiavo: Loving Husband Or Monster?

As national pro-life groups and prominent leaders converged in vigils outside Woodside Hospice in Pinellas Park, Florida, Terri Schiavo is inside the building in her bed, still hooked up to the feeding tube that has been center-focus of this so-called “right-to-die” case for the past several years. Ms. Schiavo is profoundly disabled and cannot communicate with words at this time.

But she knows. She feels. There’s expression in those eyes. Just one look at her in a video with her mother and everyone except the Scarecrow on his way to Oz knows it, too. Recently, another presumed “brain-dead” woman made news in Kansas. In a coma after becoming the victim of a drunk driver, Sarah Scantlin snapped out of a twenty year silence and began to speak. Memories are now coming back to her. By legal definition, Miss Scantlin’s life is valid. Yesterday, it was not.


Let me share this letter written by Susan.

Dear Sirs:

I am not a resident of Florida but I am an American citizen. I am writing to you today to inquire as to the exact law that would allow Terri Shiavo to be intentionally denied food and water. I would submit that the judge that issues this death sentence (George Greer) and the person that carries it out should certainly be arrested, tried, and convicted of negligent homicide.

Terri is NOT ON LIFE SUPPORT. Her life is viable and denying her food and water is a criminal act. This is not the same as removing someone from life support. This is MURDER. Just because her disability has rendered her incapable of feeding herself, that does not give anyone the right to kill her. Newborns are not capable of feeding themselves either, their parents/guardians must bear this responsibility. Terri's parents have been begging and pleading for the legal authority to make medical care available for their daughter yet they have been denied that opportunity. Are we really willing to set a precedent that makes it legal for parents and guardians to allow those in their care to die if they are not able to feed themselves? I will guarantee you that if this is allowed to happen you will have countless convicts that have been sentenced to prison for child neglect appealing based on THIS CASE. Just how will you refute their claim that you gave Michael Shiavo the right to do the very same thing without any repercussions?

What has our justice system become when we will allow a man that has moved on with his life and built a family with another woman to dictate whether or not this woman dies. If we allow this to happen we are giving this man the legal right to commit murder and he doesn't even have to do the dirty work himself!

What exactly is Mr. Shiavo's motivation for having Terri murdered? Why would he want to impose a death sentence on a completely innocent woman? What do you think would happen if the state of Florida opted to impose death by starvation on the inmates currently sitting on death row? I am already hearing, "Cruel and Unusual Punishment" and that is for convicted criminals. Terri's only crime is not having died as a result of her brain injury.

Mr. Shiavo has been given the opportunity to divorce Terri and walk away with no obligations to her at all but he refuses. If he truly was acting out of love for Terri and felt she would prefer to die than live as she has for the past 15 years, why would he not be fighting for euthanasia in a painless and quick way? I am not saying that I would agree with that either but, fighting to have her suffer for weeks is something that most people would not subject an animal to much less a living, breathing person. I have a very hard time believing that he is acting out of love for her and trying to do what is in her best interest.

It seems ludicrous to me that this has even continued this long. If this fight to kill Terri is not stopped - immediately and permanently - I for one will spend more time and effort contacting every convict that has ever been found guilty of negligence and assisting them in their appeals than you can possibly imagine.

IS THIS A CAN OF WORMS YOU WANT TO OPEN?????????????????

THOU SHALT NOT KILL.

Please feel free to contact me directly regarding this matter. I would be happy to discuss it further. As Terri cannot speak for herself, my voice is plenty loud enough for the both of us!]

Respectfully,

Susan


This sin't over yet, my friends, please keep fighting. TERRI NEEDS US!!!!

ALL OF US!!!
