"Terri Schiavo's Valiant Fight for Life"

Thanks to Margaret for calling this CBN article, Jan. 16, to my attention:

A Florida judge is expected to rule any day that Terri's law is unconstitutional, meaning that her feeding tube could be immediately removed again....

And see Beyond Terri's Law at The Weekly Standard, Jan. 19:

.... The Schiavo case was one of the most important stories of 2003. The big news wasn't that she was ordered dehydrated to death: Conscious and unconscious cognitively disabled people like Terri are often denied tube-supplied food and water in America's hospitals and nursing homes. What made this case remarkable was the successful public campaign mounted by Terri's parents Bob and Mary Schindler to prevent their daughter from suffering a slow and potentially agonizing death. As a result, millions of people awakened to the ugly reality that we treat helpless humans in a way that would be criminal if done to a horse....

(Thanks, Patrick.)
