Bad News from Florida...

Just got this from Br. Anthony of the Franciscans this morning:

Another turn of events - and this is the latest from Br. Paul. Please pass this along if you would be so kind - thank you.

The FL DCF has informed Bob and Mary this evening that THEY HAVE DECIDED, (WITHOUT AN INVESTIGATION!) THAT TERRI HAS NOT BEEN THE SUBJECT OF ABUSE and therefore they are NOT going to pursue protective custody for her.

Of course the family is absolutely devastated. How these pigs can get away with this we don't know, but it looks as though Bob and Mary are going to have to meet with Jeb Bush face to face to plead for his direct intervention.

Also, President Bush, with all his blather about a "culture of life" has done absolutely nothing to help Terri as of this writing.

It is clear that a true miracle will be needed to save poor Terri and others like her.

Terri's attorneys are urging everyone now to flood the Governor's switchboard - begging for an executive order of protection and if worse comes to worse, CAPPING Terri's feeding tube instead of surgically removing it. This would make things much easier for Terri, and would prevent two surgeries from being needed if an 11th hour solution is found.

I'll see you in the morning - if I get any news I'll pass it along. Thanks for all you're doing to help Terri. May God have mercy on us.

-Br. Anthony
