WHAT KIND OF NATION ARE WE IN 2005…..? WHERE ARE THE FEMINISTS!!??

We spend millions of dollars on admitted terrorists and murderers, in order to be SURE that they have their rights to avoid capital punishment…...we won’t allow suspected terrorists with knowledge of plans for future murders to be deprived of sleep or culturally approved meals.

However, unless the Congress of the United States, or the legislature in Florida, intervenes in the next 24 hours, a helpless, dependent, cognitively-impaired woman whose parents love and wish to care for her until her natural death, will be starved and dehydrated for two weeks until she dies.

Why? Because her “husband”, now living with another woman and the two children he has fathered with her over the last 10 years, wants his former wife dead. He’s ready to “move on”, after all. Where are all those who blather about the “Patriarchy”? What more egregious example of that bogeyman can be imagined?

Terri Schindler Schiavo collapsed of a “heart attack” at 26 years old, and for the last 14 years has been denied rehabilitation while her “husband” spent the money the jury gave him for Terri’s care on lawyers arguing to pull her feeding tube.

READ the whole sickening story….

And then contemplate what we MIGHT be doing here…....

WOMAN DEPRIVED OF FOOD & WATER JOINS FIGHT FOR TERRI

Kate Adamson, who was in a “locked-in” state, and diagnosed as “a vegetable” by doctors, had her feeding tube removed for eight days and suffered from hunger and dehydration. Only through the persistent efforts of her husband did she receive treatment and eventually recover.

Adamson has now “joined the fight to save Terri Schindler Schiavo and hopes to visit the 41-year-old disabled Florida woman by mid-month.”

Now, at 43, the mother of two is fully functional, except for some paralysis on the left side of her body. She tours the country to tell her story and speak about the sanctity of life. Adamson believes the campaign to defend Terri’s life has a large impact on all of society.

“This is not just going to affect Terri, but a lot of Terris,” she told CNA. “This (the outcome in Terri’s case) will affect a lot people’s lives.”

“I pray that God will soften hearts to see the woman (Terri) lying there and see someone who deserves a chance at life, even if she doesn’t respond the way we want her to respond,” Adamson told CNA. “I’m praying the judge’s heart will be softened.”

“God is in the business of miracles. Everything hinges on him right now,” she said.

Thank God for people like Kate Adamson, who, having “been there”, can help us see beyond our utilitarian ideas of whose life is worthwhile!
