Terri Schiavo feeding tube removed they want to starve her to death please pray a prayer. Congress is meeting right now in an emergency session on Sunday to help Terri. Pray this works.
She is not dying so starving her to death is Murder Please don't just read this please post a prayer
 |  |
We must Pray and Pray hard that any judge will take it upon himself to order the tube put back. Don't listen to what they are saying about states rights. If a federdal judge can step in and order the removal of the ten commandments and over rule the Alabama courts a federal judge can rule for life.
Congress is meeting right now. Please Pray.
Federal lawmakers struck a bipartisan deal yesterday that would keep Terri Schiavo alive while her parents bring the severely brain-damaged woman's case before the federal courts. "We are confident that this compromise addresses everyone's concerns," said Rep. Tom DeLay (R-Tex.), the House Majority Leader. "We are confident it will ... restore nutrition and hydration to Ms. Schiavo.
"We should investigate every avenue before we take the life of a living human being. ... That's the very least we can do for her."
In the latest step in the decade-long battle by her husband, Michael, to end her life, a Florida judge on Friday ordered the removal of her tube. Michael Schiavo says Terri told him she wouldn't want to live that way.
Terri has depended on the feeding tube for the past 15 years before it was removed Friday afternoon. Without the tube, she will likely starve to death within a week or two. In a statement, Republican congressional leaders vowed to work through the weekend in order to save Schiavo's life.
 A statement by Schiavo's parents': "Terri's nutrition and hydration have now been withheld from her. It is unclear if the port that accommodates her feeding tube has been surgically removed as her family was ordered to leave her room."

Court Denies Request to Reinsert Schiavo's Feeding Tube
Saturday, March 19, 2005
By Jane Roh
The U.S. Supreme Court late Friday denied without comment a House committee emergency request to have Terri Schiavo's feeding tube reinserted. The decision came after the committee requested the court's ruling in order to buy time as lower court appeals on subpoenas issued by the committee are considered.
Terri has depended on the feeding tube for the past 15 years before it was removed Friday afternoon. Without the tube, she will likely starve to death within a week or two. In a statement, Republican congressional leaders vowed to work through the weekend in order to save Schiavo's life.
 A statement on Schiavo's parents' Web site read: "Terri's nutrition and hydration have now been withheld from her. It is unclear if the port that accommodates her feeding tube has been surgically removed as her family was ordered to leave her room."
But late Friday, a House committee asked Supreme Court justices to reinsert the feeding device while the committee files appeals in the lower courts to have its subpoenas recognized.
Before the removal of the tube, the same committee used its subpoena power to demand that Schiavo be brought before a congressional hearing, saying removing the tube amounted to "barbarism." The attorney for Schiavo's husband shot back at a news conference, calling the subpoenas "nothing short of thuggery."
Felos said his client was not at his wife's side during the procedure, citing difficulty of the circumstances. Schiavo's husband, who is Terri Schiavo's legal guardian and directed physicians to remove the tube, says his wife did not want to be kept alive artificially.
In the room with Terri Schiavo as her feeding tube was removed were a representative for Michael Schiavo, a physician and other health case providers, Felos said.
The removal is a major, but not necessarily final, defeat for Schiavo's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler and the activists and lawmakers who have lobbied to keep the 41-year-old Florida woman alive.
Felos indicated that the Schindlers have already begun legal motions to have the tube reinserted.

The tube was originally scheduled for removal at 1 p.m. EST, under orders from Schiavo's husband Michael, but legal wrangling directed from as high up as the U.S. House of Representatives delayed the procedure for nearly three hours.
Schiavo suffered severe brain damage when she collapsed in 1990 and her heart temporarily stopped, possibly as a result of an eating disorder.
After being told by doctors that his wife, who could no longer speak, would never recover, Michael Schiavo asked a court to allow him to stop treatment. On Feb. 11, 2000, Circuit Court Judge George Greer approved the request to remove the feeding tube.
 Michael Schiavo has always insisted that his wife told him she did not want to be kept alive artificially. His very religious parents-in-law dispute that claim. They also insist their daughter will eventually recover if kept alive.
The case ignited the most heated debate over the right to die since Dr. Jack Kevorkian was convicted of helping a patient commit suicide in 1999.
Republican lawmakers, along with Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and his brother, President George W. Bush, have called for keeping Terri Schiavo alive. Florida courts have almost consistently decided in Michael Schiavo's favor.
White House spokesman Scott McClellan said the president discussed the case with his brother and members of Florida's congressional delegation during his swing through Florida on Friday to discuss Social Security reform.
 "We're continuing to monitor developments," McClellan said. "The president believes when there are serious questions or doubts in a case like this that the presumption ought to be in favor of life."
Gov. Jeb Bush said the judge's decision "breaks my heart" and noted that it often takes two decades for a death row inmate's appeals to go through the system.
"There's this rush to starve her to death," Bush said.
But Rep. Henry Waxman of California, senior Democrat on the Government Reform Committee, called the subpoenas a "flagrant abuse of power" and said they amounted to Congress dictating the medical care Terri Schiavo should receive. Will someone pray for this congress man that God will forgive him for his crimes.
Terri Schiavo's feeding tube has been removed and reinserted twice before. In 2003, when the tube was removed for the second time, Gov. Bush hastily pushed a new law that allowed him to order the tube reinserted.
The measure, dubbed "Terri's Law," was later ruled unconstitutional by the Florida Supreme Court. The U.S. Supreme Court declined Bush's request to consider the law.
Religious groups and other activists have been a steady presence outside the Pinellas Park, Fla., hospice where Schiavo lives, and they were out in force Friday as the clock ticked down to 1 p.m. Most prayed and sang hymns, sometimes led by religious leaders.
A number of protesters who had covered their mouths with red tape solemnly looked on Woodside Hospice (search). On the tape the word "life" was written in capital letters.
Several churches in the area held special services in Schiavo's honor.
