Do you have $80,000 per year to spend on a vegetable?
Even if I do and am willing to do so, and even if I have $8 million set aside expressly for that very purpose, that is not germane to the present discussion.
Moreover, unless I am mistaken, her family was more than willing to cover the necessary costs.
Your is a personal problem it sounds like.
While it is true that I do not hold Fr C in esteem for myriad reasons and have no problem saying so, my understanding of this matter and the truly repugnant nature of Fr C's manifestly-incorrect position happens to be in agreement with many others at whom you cannot throw such a meaningless, impotent comment designed to muddy the waters. He was wrong and the vast majority of the Catholic world knows it; only the blindest of sycophants still fail to see and accept the reality of the situation.
It IS Germaine, when the Public is Paying for such care.
Liberals like you have no limitations with regard to money and care, provided it is Other peoples money, ie Those of us that actually work for a living.
The Care you mention cost the public over $750,000 per year subsidized BY Medicaid, paid BY all of us that pay insurance premiums to have health insurance.
No wonder costs increase annually, and level of care goes down.
Patient care at the hospice where Terri lived cost 80,000 per year and was paid by the Tax paying public, Not her family.
"For two years, Medicaid has covered other medical costs, including prescription drugs, the attorneys have said in published reports."
The malpractice lawsuit helped to finance her carfe as well.
"
Medicaid's share of Schiavo's care "is a big chunk," said Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), who until this year was involved in the case as a state senator. "
The Hospice of the Florida Suncoast Inc., which operates Woodside, was cited in 1996 for nearly $15 million in payments for ineligible beneficiaries and patients who may not have been terminally ill.
The reality of all of this is that You and others, still wont address any real pertinant issues that I brought forth, which doesnt surprise me, as youre Cowards.
Ms. Terri Schiavo's Wish, made Publically to 3 Family Members including her Brother prior to her Coma, was NOT to have her life preserved via artifical Machinery.
Why would you or anyone so dishonor her, by demanding she live a life only provided by such machines? Why wouldyou betray Her public wish?
Ive read your posts Mr. Gladius, and come to the conclusion that You are a Judas....doing his work, not for money but for terrible pride and ego, the devils work.
As I see it, you are a betrayer, a gossip telling liar, terrible sinner and overall evil wicked person, and should be excommunicated for your calumny.
Were there a visible Church, such would be the case, and we would all be the better for it.
You are a sad and pathetic man, Gladius. It is Sunday, and that is the Nicst thing that I can say to you and about you.
