Dove Review

I thought I knew a lot about Terri Schiavo, the woman whose feeding tube was ordered removed by a Florida judge. I was wrong. Joni Eareckson Tada hosts a special documentary with interviews with Terri’s family, including her parents and brother and sister, and even the family attorney and the attorney for Terri’s husband Mike, the man who wanted the feeding tube removed. I was appalled by some of the things that I learned and if you have any concerns about the sanctity of life and our rights as Americans, you will want to view this DVD. But we warn you that some of the things you see will anger you.

This DVD reveals some events which took place behind the national media attention which some people are unaware of. Since this is a mature topic and shows grieving people, we are recommending this DVD for ages twelve and above. It is a very informative documentary and we highly recommend its viewing and we award it our Dove “Family-Approved” Seal.

The battle in deciding whether Terri's feeding tube should be removed and whether or not she was connecting with her family; the issue of government interference in family matters.
