may your soul rest Eluana.

Though I haven’t written about it here, I have been following this story about the “Italian Terro Schiavo” quite closely:
Eluana Englaro has died, three days after she began to be deprived of nourishment.
Last week, the comatose 37-year-old Italian woman was taken by her father Beppino from a hospital in Lecco, Italy, where Eluana was receiving care from Sisters of Mercy. She had been in a coma since 1992 as a result of injuries she sustained in a car accident.
Her father acted without legal authorization, in order to place Eluana in a medical clinic in Udine that was willing to kill her by depriving her of the food and hydration she required through a feeding tube in order to stay alive.
After her father moved her, Italy’s right-of-center government led by Italian Prime Minister Sylvio Berlusconi introduced a bill to prohibit the withdrawal of food and water from comatose patients. But Eluana died today before the legislation could be voted on in the Italian Senate, Associated Press reported. Source

Please, have respect for the departed young soul; could you not find a more descent picture, not exposing her?
What an injustice!
This woman was practically murdered and all you can think about is her photo? This is the photo that came with the AP news story, which is why it is posted. This is also the photo currently posted on the National Catholic Register’s website—did you email them your comments to me?
I had never met Eluana (God rest her soul) and have/had no control over her attire or photographs.
Martina, you have commented twice here and have had nothing but negative things to say. I’m starting to think that you will only comment if you can find something to be up in arms about. If you don’t like this site, please do not trouble yourself by coming back.
