[Gathnet] Joni Eareckson Tada on Terri's upcoming execution

[Stuart D. Gathman]

In response to the dire situation for Terri, Joni Eareckson Tada, a 
disability expert, has said, 'Thousands of Americans with disabilities 
understand the gravity of Terri's situation. We know that if every 
last legal safeguard around this brain-injured woman is dismantled, if 
every option is exhausted, then all of us are exposed, all of us are 
left vulnerable. And all of us will have to swim against the mounting 
tide of public opinion that Terri's demise will reinforce, that one is 
better off dead than disabled. WE MUST NOT, WE CANNOT LET
THIS HAPPEN.'
