TERRI'S NEWS ALERT

September 5, 2008

This Saturday on America's Lifeline!

Don't forget to tune into America's Lifeline on Talk Radio 860 WGUL this Saturday, September 6th at 3pm, ET. America's Lifeline is also streamed worldwide via the internet at Talk Radio 860 WGUL. For those outside the Tampa area, simply log onto terrisfight.org and click on the 860 TALK RADIO LOGO button.

This Saturday, September 6th on America's Lifeline our guest will be Brother Paul O'Donnell.

Brother Paul O'Donnell's, a member of the Franciscan Brothers of Peace, pro-life commitment was put to the test in 1991, when founder Brother Michael Gaworski, suffered a severe brain injury after he contracted a rare bacterial pneumonia at age 32.

Brother Michael spent eight months at the hospital, then 12 and a half years at home at the monastery before his death in 2003 of natural causes.

The experience of caring for Brother Michael led Brother Paul and other members of his community to become involved in "defining the rights of brain-injured persons," particularly those of Terri Schindler Schiavo.

Brother Paul O'Donnell said his work of advocating for disabled people has only just begun. He said he now knows that "we in our country still have a profound prejudice against the severely disabled and their lives need to be defended."

America's Lifeline is hosted by Sheila Liaugminas, former Time magazine reporter and a previous host on the popular radio show The Right Questions and Issues and Answers on Relevant Radio. The program will be co-hosted by Bobby Schindler and Suzanne Vitadamo, directors of Terri's Foundation and brother and sister of Terri Schiavo.
