Before reading this article, I am not
bashing the ‘institute’ of marriage. I am speaking about Terri Schiavo’s
marriage. Michael Schaivo should not have had the right to rule on Terri’s
life. He gave up his right to have total say in her life ten years ago when he
found another woman and fathered two kids. In real life, if your husband took
off with another woman and fathered children and then came interfering and
trying to control your life, you would call the police and they would put a
restraining order on him.
Do the value of the people like, Mother, Father, Brother, Sister not mean a
thing anymore?
Ø Why are people talking about Terri Schiavo going to heaven? Terri is going to her grave. According to the Bible we have to wait for 'judgement day' (whenever that is) to be granted access to where ever we will be permitted to go, Heaven/Purgotary/Hell. No one dies and flies off to heaven. They die and have to wait till Judgement day.
Ø Another thing I don't quite understand is, why does a person, who obtained a licence to have a legal, physical relationship with Terri, in this case, who only spent 5 years with Terri, have more right than someone who gave birth to her and has known her all her life? Schaivo is now with another women. He has children from another woman, why on earth does he have a right to kill off his exes?? He should only have the say in the life of the woman he is with and not the one who he left. Unless he has embraced Islam and can have many women at the same time
Ø We
all know that more than 50% of marriages end in divorce, a certain percentage
stay for the sake of the kids or the car or the house. Some stay because they
don't have the financial means to live elsewhere, then there are those women
who are too afraid to leave, and the percentage of people that stay together
because no one else will have them. If Terri’s whole family were ready to help
nurture her, why on earth is Michael Schaivo, who only knew Terri for 5 years,
have more power than her whole family? He even held the key as to when they can
visit and for how long. He even denied Terri Holy Communion for Easter. Her
brother asked to let a camera in her room to let the world see how Terri
looked, Schaivo refused it. Schaivo’s lawyer gave a press conference saying
that, Terri looked calm and beautiful. Give me a break!!! Would he say that if
it was his sister, who lay starving to death?
Ø Schaivo never let Terri have a radio, or a TV, Terri was not allowed to go out for fresh air, how can all this be overlooked? Have you noticed Schaivo did everything for Terri in the first 5 years after her mishap without mentioning her “wish to die”? After he meets another woman he conveniently wants to have Terri’s “so called” death wishes followed out?
Ø Hey guys!! Suppose you kick the bucket, and someone said they heard you say, All your money should be given to your neighbour’s kids and not your own? Don’t you think before major decisions like that were, made, we should have written testament to verify it? Schaivo’s case was based on Terri’s “hearsay will to die”. It was only hearsay, that frightens me no end.
Ø Gosh this seems frightening, a person with a licence to legally have sex with you holds the key to end your life if you become disabled. Schaivo never said it was Terri’s wish in the beginning. Only after he was able to sue for medical malpractice, and received a large sum of money, did he come up with this ‘Terri’s wishes idea’. He met another woman and then decided to “ campaign to kill Terri off” in other words disconnect her feeding tube. He had nothing on paper to prove that Terri would have wanted to starve to death.
Ø They were married for 5 years, if they were married for more and had kids, and if Schaivo acted along with the family to see what was best for Terri, it would be a different situation. Why can’t people see through this man? Imagine it was your daughter screaming out and wanting to live
Ø Michael Schiavo, chose the wrong path. What goes around comes around. In the mean time, he is going to write a book and cash in on movie deals. He will be able to live off Terri's legacy anyway, if you allow him to. He does not even want to give Terri’s remains to her parents. What kind of maniac is this man? How much more pain is he going to put Terri’s family through?
Ø Schaivo could have been a Hero, he could have just given Terri’s parents the power to love and look after their daughter while he looked after his, but he chose to go in the opposite direction. He chose to kill an innocent disabled person.
Ø This was the wrong decision and he will never be allowed to live a normal life again. Terri is gone, He will now take over her suffering. He will pay for his wrong doing, don’t we all?
