by Tom Parsons [+/-] show/hide

In a 10-2 decision this afternoon, the full 11th Circuit Court of Appeals refused to hear a petition from Terri Schiavo's parents to have her feeding tube reinserted. Her parents have stated they will appeal to the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile, lawmakers in Florida are scrambling to try to pass a bill that will help Terri Schiavo. Governor Jeb Bush has already said that he will sign the bill. The key senators can be contacted by e-mail by clicking on this link.

UPDATE 5:00PM EST: The Florida Senate has rejected a bill that would have allowed Terri Schiavo's feeding tube to be reinserted. Terri's fate now lies in the hands of the U. S. Supreme Court.
