Terri Schiavo Now Starving To Death

Read Statement from Family Nurse, HERE.

Those in favor of murdering Terri Schiavo do not want you to know that it is very possible and in fact likely that she will feel the pains caused by death by starvation.

According to medical experts, after her feeding tube is removed, Mrs. Schiavo will experience extreme pain and significant psychological distress during the two weeks that her starvation-execution is expected to take.

Her skin, tongue and lips will crack due to dehydration. Schiavo will likely suffer chronic nosebleeds as mucous membranes dry out, followed by heaving and vomiting as the stomach lining dries out.

Her mouth is expected to develop painful ulcers. As Schiavo's brain is deprived of fluid, she is expected to suffer grand mal seizures.

Cheryl Ford, a former oncology nurse-turned-Schiavo activist, says that doctors supervising Schiavo's starvation-execution plan to take extreme measures to mask her physical agony, including the regular application of skin moisturizer and pain-killing drugs.

Because the 41-year-old woman is in good health, with a normal body weight of 138 pounds, she could linger longer than a terminally ill patient.
If Terri is indeed "brain dead", why do they need to administer pain-killers?

Great Commentary on what The Schiavo Case Means In Terms of "Torture".
