i know, i keep going on about this, and i'm sorry, Donna, for doing this in your journal, but there's something about this i don't like, and i blame it on the source being very obviously right wing:

"In March, 2000, Michael Schiavo and his attorney, George Felos, secretively relocated Terri Schindler-Schiavo from the Palm Gardens Nursing Home to the hospice without court order and without notifying her parents."

Why did he need a court order or have to nofity her parents? HE was her legal guardian! the whole guardian ad-litem was to make the decision on whether or not to pull the feeding tube. never was guardianship taken away from Michael. so he didn't HAVE to have a court order to move her, nor did he have to notify her parents. if he did, don't you think legal action would have been taken against him by the state of Florida? but it wasn't. because there were no grounds. again, not saying he wasn't a prick, but what he did wasn't illegal by not notifying the parents. as for the medicare stuff, that's a whole 'nother ball game, and that sounds like the lawyer and the doctor to me. i know, that wasn't the point you were making, but that part of the article hit a nerve with me.
