Temporary Stay for Terri

Terri Schiavo's starvation did not begin yesterday. Judge Greer issued a stay until 5:00pm today. Terri's family is hopeful.

Sadly, what may happen to Terri has happened to others before. Life Matters posts about a few of those cases. There is also the case of the Downs Syndrome baby who was starved to death over twenty years ago. This is the subject of Steve Taylor's song "Baby Doe". You know, I don't even remember hearing about these incidents when they occurred. I was in my teens when they took place, so maybe I just wasn't paying attention.

I'm paying attention now. God forgive me for not paying attention before.
