Still waiting for a judge to make the right decision

I'm sure by now you all know that the bill to protect Terri was passed this morning just after midnight, and President Bush immediately signed it.

According to Hyscience, the judge now assigned to Terri's case has scheduled a hearing for 3:00 p.m. today.

Why the delay?

If it's true, as stated yesterday, that Terri has an infection and fever, she may not be able to last much longer without hydration and nutrition. According to the Hyscience post above, Terri's family says she's not holding up very well this time.

She may need medical care and antibiotics, and even if a judge orders feeding to resume, Michael still controls medical care for Terri. As always, he would refuse it, no doubt.

The only lasting solution for Terri is to have a judge give guardianship to her parents, or at the very least someone other then Michael.

That seems only fair to me. But then again, I'm not a Florida judge.
