You Would Go to Jail for Starving a Dog, Folks!

Dr. J and I have been very upset about the slow murder of Terri Schiavo by her "guardian," Michael Schiavo (sorry, I can't bring myself to refer to him as her husband; since the courts have named him as her guardian, I will call him that and nothing more).

This tears at me so much . . . to know that in America, a women who has a family who wants to care for her, who wants to feed and nourish her, who wants to restart the therapy her "guardian" hasn't permitted in over a decade, but is not permitted to do so because her "guardian" has decided to move on with his life by creating 2 kids with his girlfriend and can no longer be bothered with treating Terri in a humane manner . . . well, it's disgusting.

I am once again providing a link to my friend Steve's web site. He has written a thoughtful commentary on Terri's case, and the unimaginable emotional pain her parents, siblings, and friends must be going through.

I am also providing a link to a web site about Terri. If there was a doubt in my mind about this case, clicking on the "Myths About Terri" surely erased all of them.
