Michael Schiavo to Speak at Ethics Conference - Updated

| 3 Comments | 5 TrackBacks

Following his recent public appearance to receive the guardianship of the year award from the Florida State Guardianship Association (more here), Michael Schiavo is speaking at an ethics conference. Earlier this year Schiavo won a 12-year legal battle and ended his wife's life by withholding nutrition and hydration.

The meeting will be held at the Hennepin County Medical Center (MN) and is titled, "33 Years of Clinical Ethics in Minnesota: Ron Cranfords Stories of Heroes and Courage."

Cranford is a well-known euthanasia advocate who drew national attention in the Terri Schiavo case by testifying that she was in a persistent vegetative state. Reportedly, he has been on the board of the Euthanasia Society of America, has ties to the Hemlock Society and testified similarly in other cases.

Cranford obviously does have an agenda and has for years been building a case for euthanizing the disabled and afflicted through the removal of feeding tubes.

"The United States has thousands or tens of thousands of patients in vegetative states; nobody knows for sure exactly how many," Cranford wrote in a 1997 Minneapolis Star Tribune opinion piece titled: When a feeding tube borders on the barbaric. (WorldNetDaily. Com, March 23, 2005). "But before long, this country will have several million patients with Alzheimers dementia. The challenges and costs of maintaining vegetative state patients will pale in comparison to the problems presented by Alzheimers disease.

"The answer, he suggested, was physician-assisted suicide."

Candian Free Press

The brochure for the upcoming ethics conference states that the presentations are focused on the development of clinical ethics in Minnesota through the words of some of ethics greatest heroes.

Cranford will guide attendees through 33 years of progress by way of experiences of professionals and families involved in some of the most visible (and not so visible) cases in American history.

The case of Terri Schiavo is represented as one of the Landmark Right to Die Cases from 1972-2005.

Updates:

JacquefromTexas notes: Michael Schiavo and the supposed independant guardian Jay Wolfson are speaking at Dr. "Death" Cranford's ETHICS conference. Check out the bottom of the convention brochure and you'll see his name- right below Michael Schiavo.

LifeNews reports: As Terri's estranged husband, Michael Schiavo didn't make many public comments during the long legal battle he fought with Terri's family over whether or not to starve her to death. Now that Terri has died, Michael is significantly raising his public profile and will soon address a euthanasia conference in Minnesota.

Hidden Nook has more.

Related Article: Misdiagnosing PVS - Cranford and Terri Schiavo - One problem with Cranfords assertions is that he apparently did not consult a radiologist when he attempted to interpret Terris CT scans. Had he done so, he would have been told that the scan cannot be used to diagnose PVS and resembled that of an elderly person suffering senility but completely conscious.

Schiavo and Cranford are evil. They got away with murder and continue to promote it with no consequences. This group of ghouls sure has tainted Florida state forever.

Oh My, I just read that Ronald Cranford has "liver cancer"!!! That is a painful illness and he will suffer and slowly die! Wonder if he will deny himself water and food to make his death faster.

I don't mean to gloat, but, frankly, I am quite happy about the news. He should go die at Woodside Hospice, Terri's death camp. He SHOULD!

This is GREAT news! Cranford bragged on CNN he only looked at Terri for "42" mins in lieu of "45" mins when all the doctors have stated PVS is a clinical diagnosis! What JUSTICE, liver cancer, the worse and most painful illness one can get! Hooah!

You are gloating, which is unfortunate. It is also sad to see your joy over another person's suffering despite his actions.
