MSNBC - U.S. Supreme Court rejects Schiavo appeal

Appalling that Jeb Bush and crew would be trying to 'take custody' of Schiavo. The whole church and state line seems not to exist any more. The whole mess is just friggin' bizarre. Interesting bit at the very bottom of the article:

"The custody request was based on the opinion of a neurologist working for the state who observed Schiavo at her bedside but did not examine her.

The neurologist, William Cheshire of the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, is a bioethicist who is also an active member in Christian organizations, including two whose leaders have spoken out against the removal of Schiavo's feeding tube."

Argh! If there's one thing I'm learning from all this its that right now is a good time to have your wishes written down, witnessed and signed by a lawyer. I'm horrified at the thought that Carol would have to go through anything like Michael Schiavo is if I were incompacitated or vice versa. I don't think our families would do what Terry Schiavo's folks are, but you never really know what people are going to do with a stressful situation until they're in it. I pray that me or anyone I know never have to find out how we would react. Yuck.

I'll knock on some would just for you Dré.
