| won't someone please think of the children! |
| 03.30.05 (7:13 am) [edit] |
I'm in the middle of Time's big article on the whole Terry Schiavo nightmare. I can't really say that I have an opinion on whether Jeb, George, or anyone else should decide if she should die. Frankly, if my family was at my bedside for 15 years, hoping I'd suddenly perk back up, I'd want to kill my own self for their sakes if not my own. But Terry Schiavo's life and family is, basically, none of my business.The one weird thing that occurred to me is... what about Mike Schiavo's other girlfriend and kids? He hasn't remarried the girlfriend because he's not divorced or widowed. But they have two kids together. What must it be like to be that woman, those kids... living in the shadow of Mike's undead wife all these years? What's it going to do to those kids? The sick part of me wonders if, when Mike and his girlfriend argue, he spits at her "Terry never talks back to me! Terry never nags me!" Oh, boy. I'm so going to hell. |

Yes, I agree on your question about th ekids and the "other woman". How is all that playing out? How do they feel, or have felt all this time? I'm with you, for my sake and my kids sake, just let me die if I'm not aware of anything and there is no hope. Die with dignity and peace.
Oh JT, here is a stupid question, being raised Catholic, I was lead to believe Jews did NOT believe in heaven or hell! True of false? Just wondering!

You got me; Jews don't. I don't think we deal with any kind of afterlife, although DH may correct me. (Mahnish tana halayla hazeh.*)
I just like saying it as though admitting I would go to hell absolves me of being a complete catty bitch.
*(Translation: "Why is this night different from all others?") It's a joke, DH. I'm kidding with ya. You know, like making with the funny.
