Remembering Terri Schindler-Schiavo on Her Birthday

by Janice Sanford

Born December 3, 1963- Died of dehydration March 31, 2005

"Michael and Jodi, you have your own children. Please, please give my child back to me."

Mary Schindler, Terri Schiavo's mother, begins to cry as she pleads for Terri's life during a brief news conference Tuesday afternoon March 22, 2005 at the Woodside Hospice  in Pinellas Park, Fla. Looking on is Terri's father Bob Schindler. [AP]

Today is Terri's birthday. What should be a day of ice cream, cake, and opening birthday presents for Terri is now a day without a child and sister. A day when Terri's real family [the Schindlers] will cerebrate her birthday with tears and with remembering birthdays gone by.

Look at Bob and Mary's faces! How can anyone forget Terri's birthday?

    Statement By: Governor Jeb Bush
    Guardian Ad Litem's Report

    TALLAHASSEE - “I appreciate Dr. Wolfson’s time and effort in this endeavor. I also respect the tremendous challenge of preparing an accurate, independent and thorough review of nearly 10 years of information in only 30 days. That Dr. Wolfson recognizes the continued need for an independent third party Guardian Ad Litem is encouraging, as is his recommendation that Mrs. Schiavo undergo swallowing tests and therapy. Based on this third party analysis, I am hopeful that Mr. Schiavo and his attorney will no longer prevent this vital testing from taking place. This would be a first step in the fresh, clean-hands start that Dr. Wolfson recommended at the end of his report.

    “Taken as a whole, however, I am concerned that too many open questions still remain. Chief among them is the issue of Mrs. Schiavo’s wishes, and whether or not there is clear and convincing evidence as to what those wishes were. The current court proceedings have not addressed this issue, or her current guardian’s conflicts of interest, nor have I been given the opportunity to develop evidence, or test the accuracy of Mr. Schiavo’s assertions on this matter.

    “I am also concerned we do not know the expertise of the individuals who provided the ‘answers’ to the questions that are addressed in the report. I am sure that Dr. Wolfson, who indicated his reliance on ‘good science-based medicine,’ understands the importance of knowing which good scientists and good doctors he relied on to reach certain conclusions.

    “As I have said from the beginning, the state must protect every Floridians’ right to life, and in so doing, err on the side of life. As Governor, I will continue to do just that. Nothing in Dr. Wolfson’s report leads me to believe the stay should be lifted at this time, or that Mrs. Schiavo should be deprived of her right to live.”

    Time: 8:53:18 AM EDT
    Author:  justice1949


    October 21, 2003

    Florida Governor's Office EXECUTIVE ORDER NUMBER 03-201

             WHEREAS, on October 21, 2003, the Florida Legislature passed House Bill 35-E (to be published as Public Law 03-418), signed this date by me, authorizing the Governor to issue a one-time stay in certain cases where, as of October 15, 2003, the action of withholding or withdrawing nutrition or hydration from a patient in a permanent vegetative state has already occurred and there is no written advance directive and a family member has challenged the withholding or withdrawing of nutrition and hydration; and

             WHEREAS, under House Bill 35-E a person may not be held civilly liable and is not subject to regulatory or disciplinary sanctions for taking any action to comply with a stay issued by the Governor pursuant to House Bill 35-E; and

             WHEREAS, in the case of Theresa Marie Schindler Schiavo, Robert Schindler and Mary Schindler, the parents of Theresa Marie Schindler Schiavo, have requested that the Governor enter a stay prohibiting further withholding or withdrawing of nutrition or hydration; and

             WHEREAS, a court has found that Theresa Schiavo is in a persistent vegetative state as of October 15, 2003; and

             WHEREAS, Theresa Schiavo had no written advance directive as of October 15, 2003; and

             WHEREAS, nutrition and hydration have been withdrawn from Theresa Schiavo, and continues to be withheld as of October 15, 2003; and

             WHEREAS, the Schindlers have challenged the withdrawal and withholding of nutrition and hydration as of October 15, 2003; and

             WHEREAS, an immediate and urgent need has arisen to address the removal of nutrition or hydration, because death due to lack of nutrition and hydration is imminent;

             NOW THEREFORE, I, JEB BUSH, Governor of the State of Florida, by the powers vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the State of Florida, specifically House Bill 35-E, do hereby promulgate the following Executive Order, effective immediately:

             Section 1          A.  Effective immediately, continued withholding of nutrition and hydration from Theresa Schiavo is hereby stayed.

             B.  Effective immediately, all medical facilities and personnel providing medical care for Theresa Schiavo, and all those acting in concert or participation with them, are hereby directed to immediately provide nutrition and hydration to Theresa Schiavo by means of a gastronomy tube, or by any other method determined appropriate in the reasonable judgment of a licensed physician.

             C.  While this order is effective, no person shall interfere with the stay entered pursuant to this order.

             D.  This order shall be binding on all persons having notice of its provisions.

             E.  This order shall be effective until such time as the Governor revokes it.

             F.  The Florida Department of Law Enforcement shall serve a copy of this Executive Order upon the medical facility currently providing care for Theresa Schiavo.

             IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and have caused the Great Seal of the State of Florida to be affixed this 21st day of October, 2003.

    Subject: Rebirth of The American Spirit
    Time: 10:02:43 PM EDT
    Author:  justice1949


     
    Rebirth of The American Spirit
     
    Five years ago the Eagle wept on 911
    And his screams of anger were heard though out the land
    As firemen went into the smoke filled places of rubble
    to give people a helping hand.

    Five years ago the Eagle wept at the scene below
    as he circled up above. For it was to much for him to bear
    all the tear stained faces, and the blood that was everywhere .

    Five years ago the Eagle circled once and then again,
    and again,and again, as his cries grew louder and louder and
    louder warning those who had done the evil deed that never
    again would they catch the American Eagle sleeping.

    The Eagle let out another mighty scream that was heard
    around the world...Ole Glory and Lady Liberty both knew what
    the Eagle's cry meant: the American spirit was on her way.
    It was 911 and the American Spirit was being reborn.

    In tribute to the fallen Americans, Lady Liberty now holds
    her torch higher, and in its flames are written the names
    of all who perished on that day

    In tribute to the fallen Americans, the flag of their beloved
    country wrote their names in sunlight on each line of red,and white,
    and replaced one of her stars on her field of blue with a star
    from heaven picked just for them.

    Five years ago the victims of 911 became American heroes
    on September 11,2001,when the American Spirit on that heart
    breaking day,in the midst of a nation's tears, was reborn.
    by Janice Sanford

    WE WILL NOT FORGET!
