EARLY Monday morning, please call State Senator James King, Jr., president of the Florida Senate at 1-904-727-3600 and ask that a special session be called immediately to enact the “Florida Starvation & Dehydration of Persons with Disabilities Prevention Act”. This action could stop the imminent actions that may be taken as soon as Tuesday, Feb. 22nd – that is, to remove the feeding and hydration tube from Terry Schiavo.
From the excerpt below, you will see that her parents, the Schindlers, are continuing to try every means possible to save her life. Terry’s so-called “husband”, who is living with another woman, and has fathered two children with her, and has continually withheld any form of rehabilitation or treatment of Terry with money which was awarded by a court for the express purpose of treating Terry – has only one goal in mind – HER DEATH. He doesn’t want her to learn to feed herself – which specialist and doctors have said she could learn to do. He doesn’t want her to learn to talk, again which she does on a limited basis to her family, calling her mom and dad by those titles.
Do what you feel will help as we work together to uphold the value of human life.

This is a nightmare right out of Lois Lowery’s book, The Giver. Events such as these underscore why it is important for young people to read stories such as this. I never yet encountered a student who was not outraged by the euthanizing of babies and the elderly after reading and discussing this novel. The Terry Schiavo case is exactly what Lowery implicitly warns us of.
This is a disturbing case. I’ve blogged on it too. I can’t get Terri Schiavo off my mind and she is constanty in my communication with the Lord.
