Bob Schindler, late Monday:

“While she still made eye contact with me when I spoke to her [Terri Schiavo], she was becoming increasingly lethargic,” Bob Schindler said in the papers. “Terri no longer attempted to verbalize back to me when I spoke to her.”

This is overwhelmingly outrageous. Apparently, as a direct result of removing nutrition and hydration from (ie. starving) Terri Schiavo, she was becoming lethargic and no longer attempted to verbalize. BECOMING? NO LONGER? The point should be obvious, she WAS DOING THESE THINGS before the feeding tube was removed!

It makes one wonder if Terri’s parents have contemplated drastic measures, such as kidnapping Terri and taking her to an undisclosed location somewhere with a doctor who has vowed to “first, do no harm.” As outlandish as such an idea seems, I have to admit that if my little child was being starved to death by the State, the thought would cross my mind. I would risk my life or freedom to attempt to save his life.

UPDATE: It seems others have a similar, but lawful way of taking just such a step.

There are two people in the United States who can save Terri Schiavo’s life right now. The president of the United States and the governor of Florida have the authority to use the police services at their disposal to take Terri into protective custody, restore her food and hydration, and arrest anyone who would interfere,” said Dr. Paul Schenck, executive director of the National Pro-Life Action Center on Capitol Hill. “For the sake of Terri’s life, we cannot afford to wait while the courts dither over jurisdiction.” Details of D.C.

And here is a list of contacts at the Florida Legislature. A poster at BlogsForTerri thinks they can help.
