COMMENTARY: CASE POINTS UP URGENCY OF WILL TO LIVE

By Burke J. Balch, J.D., director of NRLC Dep't of Medical Ethics

It is appropriate to be appalled, but no one should be shocked.

Denial of food and fluids to people who cannot speak for themselves has been going on for fifteen years in this country. It is routine practice in hospitals and nursing homes across the country. And for over a decade, the law on this, established by numerous court decisions and statutes, has been largely settled. If someone who is now incompetent to make health care decisions has not left clear instructions in a legal document (variously called an "advance directive," "durable power of attorney for health care," "living will," or the like), then a surrogate decision-maker can legally decide to cut off the person's food and fluids.

"Terri's brother: Felos (attorney for Michael Shiavo) in love with death"

WorldNetDaily Exclusive.

While virtually all other eyewitnesses described the dying brain-injured woman as "gaunt," "drawn," "struggling" and "fighting like hell" for life, Felos described Terri as "beautiful" and "peaceful" to reporters during a Saturday press conference:

"She is calm, she is peaceful, she is resting comfortably. ... Her lips are not chapped, they're not bleeding. Her skin's not peeling. Frankly when I saw her ... she looked beautiful. In all the years I've seen Mrs. Schiavo, I've never seen such a look of peace and beauty upon her."

The Nation Reacts

"Today is a tragic day for the Schindler family—and, indeed, for the entire human family. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Schindlers, who have been made to watch their beloved daughter and sister waste away for the last two weeks—under not only the approval of the courts, but under their direct order.

"Every Florida and federal judge who failed to act to spare this precious woman from the torment she was forced to endure is guilty not only of judicial malfeasance—but of the cold-blooded, cold-hearted extermination of an innocent human life. Terri Schiavo has been executed, under the guise of law and 'mercy,' for being guilty of nothing more than the inability to speak for herself.

"I grieve for the Schindlers today, and I fear for the future of our nation."—Focus on the Family Chairman Dr. James Dobson
________________________________________________

"Mrs. Schiavo's death is a moral poverty and a legal tragedy. This loss happened because our legal system did not protect the people who need protection most, and that will change. The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior, but not today. Today we grieve, we pray, and we hope to God this fate never befalls another. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Schindlers and with Terri Schiavo's friends in this time of deep sorrow."

Terri Shiavo Dies

• "Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C., said. . . ,
  

'In Terri's case, the courts have shown that they are suffering from a persistent state of arrogance,' he said. 'Her death is a symptom of a greater problem: that the courts no longer respect human life.'"

• "In the end, Princeton attorney Robert George said Schiavo's death lays before all Americans a choice.

'Do we recognize that all human lives have a profound inherent and equal dignity?" he asked. "Or are we prepared to abandon our historic belief in the equal dignity of all human beings and move to a view that considers some lives to be a life unworthy of life?'"

Breakpoint Commentary

March 25, 2005

"What an irony this presents this year. Jesus died so that we could be free and saved. It was a noble death, if there ever was one. But another death occupies the headlines today, one that mocks the death of Jesus. It is Terri Schiavo who is being killed by judicial fiat. For what reason?"

Toxic Indifference to North Korea

"Another eyewitness, Kwon Hyuk, formerly chief manager at Camp 22, repeated to me what he asserted to the BBC: 'I witnessed a whole family being tested on suffocating gas and dying in the gas chamber. . . . The parents were vomiting and dying, but until the very last moment they tried to save kids by doing mouth-to-mouth breathing.'"

Zoey, yet to be born, needs your help.

This is where you can help. The transplant requires 9 days of chemotherapy to suppress the immune system, MRI's, EEG's, numerous blood transfusions (Zoey will not produce blood for 3 - 4 weeks following chemotherapy), a lengthy hospital stay, food and essential needs for this period, and medical costs not covered by insurance. There is also the cost of temporarily relocating.

We are excited that Zoey is being born to a set of parents who live by strong Christian standards and that time, inconvenience, and money are not being balanced against the value of a life.
