Here are some excerpts from a WND commentary on the Terri Schiavo case.

...Could they have imagined that these same judges would also restrict their final few days of opportunity to visit with or see Terri, to take pictures, final video of her? Could they have imagined that because the court had ordered them not to give "therapeutic support" and barring them from video taping, that they themselves would have to defy a court order for the public to see that Terri was not brain-dead?
Is it fair or proper for this son-in-law to try to deny the rights of Terri's parents to tell the truth about Terri's condition? Shouldn't people know that when Terri's mom walks into her hospice room and calls her name that Terri's eyes widen with joy, a smile comes on her face and she tries to sit up? Shouldn't people know the truth that when Terri's mom nuzzles with her and kisses her on the cheek that it tickles Terri's heart so much that she breaks out with laughter? Shouldn't people know that Terri began to cry when she was told of what was going to happen to her ...
When Mary Schindler was brushing Terri's hair out at night when she was little could she have ever dreamed that Terri's future husband would prevent her from being with her in the final 10 days of life?
Terri began starving two days ago. Doctors say she will be dead within 10 to 14 days of when it began.
