Adviser: Schindlers have little recourse now
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Supreme Court’s decision today to not order the reinsertion of Terri Schiavo’s feeding tube leaves the family with little recourse, said a family spiritual adviser this morning.
Rev. Patrick Mahoney, head of the Christian Defense Coalition, and an advocate for the the brain-damaged woman’s parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, said, “Yesterday our legislative options closed. Just now our legal options closed. Gov. Bush is now the only practical hope for Terri Schiavo.”
At 12:30, the demonstrators outside the Florida hospice today plan to stage a vigil outside the Pinellas County Courthouse, where Sixth Circuit Judge George W. Greer is slated to decide whether the state can take protective custody of Schiavo.
On Friday, Greer ordered that Schiavo’s feeding tube be removed.
“We are not giving up. We are praying,” said Mahoney.
