Terri's Last Hope Is... Divorce?

FoxNews is reporting that after the Supreme Court's ruling against hearing their appeal, Terri Schiavo's parents only have one remaining hope for their daughter's life: a divorce from her husband.

"If there is any way for Michael to walk away... just please, please, please let them keep their daughter and just walk away," said David Gibbs, the Schindlers' attorney...Michael Schiavo intends to withdraw the tubes that feed and hydrate his 41-year-old wife as soon as legally possible, maybe as early as next month. Terri Schiavo's parents have vowed to keep her alive. The Schindlers have three legal avenues still open to them: an appeal to a state appeals court in a request for a new trial based on recent comments by Pope John Paul II; a request that Michael Schiavo be removed as his wife's guardian; and a motion to set aside the original decision that Terri Schiavo did not want to be kept alive artificially.

I doubt that Michael Schiavo will take this course of action. Things has already gone too far, whether you believe his actions to be honorable or selfish. But where there is life, there is hope. And for the moment, Terri Schiavo lives.
