Terri's 5th Day without feeding tube.

This is really rather pitiful.....especially since just learning an hour or so ago the Federal Appeals Court Refuses to re-insert the feeding tube.
This one says this and that one says that......there have been all kinds of twists and turns and accusations on both sides.....and you really don't know who to believe or trust in what they are saying.
All I know is....if the CAT Scan is actually hers, and from all accounts it is.....this woman barely has a brain left to function. It's a wonder she can do as much as she can, open eyes and grunt. On the other hand.....where will all this lead us....or not lead us.
Also....this girl is way beyond any kind of rehabilitative care at this point and I doubt she ever could have been. She reminds me a lot of that little guy I took care of a couple of times....the drowning/resuscitation.
In conclusion, I feel now (and I almost change my mind daily as new reports are exposed) that Terri's husband really needs to relinquish his guardianship, say good-bye to her and turn her over to the parents because as it stands this will not be over when it's so-called over. I believe when and if she does die, the parents will file a civil suit against the husband for wrongful death.
So in the meantime...the tube should be re-inserted....and let them take care of her as they wish.

Terri's Dilemma

As it is getting rather late now, and I need to rest awhile, this will be short. I've spent the night doing a bit of superficial searching on the soul.....and when that soul leaves the body. I've found some very interesting sites and wish to return to them when I can pull this all together.
Being a conservative Catholic republican medical professional I find myself on the opposite side of my conservative christian republican party this time.....and basically for the first time. I have watched and read and listened to just about everything on Terri Schiavo and the dilemma she has got herself in as well as her husband, family....and the rest of us. Early last night I posted some replies to the message boards.......and found myself wondering about her soul. Is is still in that body.....or did it leave her back in 1990? Is it wavering over her in some sort of limbo state as her body dangles in the shadow of death? Where is she....is Terri still within? I'm very complexed over this matter.....and find it very hard to validate her viability as the right thing to do by keeping her fed through a tube. Only a brain transplant could bring her back to a walking, talking, thinking, feeling, loving human being, but would it be Terri.....even if that were possible?
Gotta go, my time is up.
