More Reading for Schaivo
March 30, 2005
I found another great article on Terri Schiavo today in the St. Louis Post Dispatch (surprisingly, I know...), and it is written by Fr. Edward Richard—from Kenrick-Glennon Seminary!
"In Terri's case, a number of Americans have seen what law and medicine could not. Terri's humanity and its dignity mean that she should be guaranteed basic care including food and water. It is now time to begin asking how medicine and law can legitimately serve to bolster respect for and improve the lives of persons with disabilities like Terri's, not sanction their deaths. Unfortunately for Terri, needed improvements in the law will probably be too late..."
