Terri Schiavo Dies in Florida Hospice

Terri Schiavo Dies in Florida Hospice: 'Regardless of your perspective on end-of-life issues this is very sad moment and a very reflective moment for a lot of us,' said Senate President Tom Lee.

I agree. May she rest in peace, may her family (all of them, both biological and that of her husband) find a way past this difficult time, and may no one reading this ever go through the kind of half-existence/media circus that she did. I think those who used this case as a photo opportunity or to push forth an agenda should be ashamed of themselves. The truly sad thing is that her case could have been prevented; her condition was brought on by an electrolyte imbalance due to bulimia. Please, if you believe you (or someone you love) have an eating disorder, seek help before it is too late.
