- I have just received this from my eyewitness contact
at the scene:
-
- This is an URGENT Hospice Patients Alliance News Alert
October 21, vol VII, sent out to urge the public to call/contact the Governor
of Florida NOW!
-
- All bedlam breaking loose in Florida Michael Schiavo
fighting in court to make sure Terri dies at hospital Said to be threatening
all workers who might help Terri
-
- We need you to call the Governor of Florida IMMEDIATELY
to send in State Police into the Morton Plant Hospital in Clearwater, FLorida
where Terri Schiavo has been transported. Michael Schiavo is reported
to have actually interfered with anyone providing care for Terri and threatened
to sue them. He is suing the Governor. Here is the update from the local
area:
-
- "Terri is in Morton Plant Hospital in Clearwater
(where Michael works!). There is a hearing going on right now in front
of a circuit judge whether the Gov's injunction stands. Michael is also
suing the Governor!! So, there is going to be a showdown between the judicial
and legislative areas. .... The local news showed demonstrators outside
the hospital telling the hospital to feed Terri."
-
- and:
-
- "There is a lot of confusion about information right
now. One source says Terri is being hydrated, one says the doctors aren't
giving her IVs because of the court. One says the tube was reinserted
at 7 PM." [note from Ron: we do not believe that to be accurate.]
"Michael is at the hospital threatening anyone who helps her. I
hope someone stays with her at all times because of Michael perhaps trying
to do something to her."
-
- Ron Panzer: We have just learned from those closest
to the family, that the first doctor who attempted to insert the IV (intravenous)
line to rehydrate Terri was intimidated by Michael Schiavo and did not
insert the IV due to Michael Schiavo's threats. When it was explained
to the hospital staff and doctors that it was the Governor's order that
Terri Schiavo be rehydrated another doctor inserted an IV and that Terri
IS currently getting rehydration starting from about one hour or so ago.
In other words, the hospital realized it would not be in the hospital's
best interests to be found to have violated the Governor's direct order
to rehydrate Terri and then have her die! They reconsidered their actions.
In other words, the rehydration was delayed for HOURS due to Michael Schiavo's
actions!
-
- Reports are consistent that Terri IS being rehydrated
NOW, finally!
-
- Also, we have reports that attorney for Michael Schiavo,
George Felos' motion or complaint to prevent Terri from being fed was denied
by 2 judges. Attorney for the Schindlers, Pat Anderson, is going to court
to make sure Michael Schiavo is removed as guardian and that he has no
say at all as to what happens to Terri!
-
- We are urging you to call the Governor of Florida NOW
to have him order state police protection for Terri, to stand at her side
at all times, to assure her safety from any efforts to harm her or prevent
care being provided. The state police are under the command of the Governor.
You can call Governor Jeb Bush at: 850-488-7146 and email him at jeb.bush@myflorida.com
-
- We need your action NOW! Please help!
