Priest Said Terri's Tongue is Dry

Terri Schiavo has been allowed to receive a drop of the Precious Blood of Christ on Easter. Praise be to God for this.

Read the full story here.

But, here is my response on the entry about this on Blogs for Terri:

Praise be to God for allowing this. However, I must also point out that it's possible (MY OPINION ONLY) that Felos advised Michael to allow this for one reason - to eliminate the charge of denying Terri's religious rights. THAT could have been a reason for either President Bush or Governor Bush to intervene. By allowing a drop of the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ, they have eliminated that possibility.

I praise God for allowing this. Since in my opinion, the courts would probably have nullified any steps either President Bush or Governor Bush did in response to a denial of religious rights, it was wonderful that Terri was given that much. And of course, had the Schindlers taken this up with the courts themselves, they probably would have denied their request (in my opinion).

Furthermore, take a look at the article linked from the blog message. The priest who administered the Sacrament indicated that he could not provide her with a fleck of the Precious Body of Christ because her tongue was dry. Hmm, I recall that on Holy Saturday (yesterday) Felos came out to a press conference saying Terri was "peaceful" and "beautiful." If one's tongue is dried out, that is NOT beautiful and peaceful.
