I understand it's a little late in the day, but better late...

Please consider, on this day of universal fasting in the Church, fasting for and in solidarity with Terri Schiavo. Her family is out of legal options, they are left to watch her die if nobody intervenes. They need a miracle, or a heroic action by somebody with the power to save Terri.

I propose that we Catholics consider allowing the Eucharist to be the only sustenance to enter our mouths today, and we can pray that through the power of the Eucharist, somebody's heart may be moved, or some miracle of grace can occur to prevent Terri from dying.

I have faith - and we all must - that God can save Terri Schiavo, and prayer and fasting are the means to bring this about. But even if nothing happens, and she perishes, our fasting can still be a silent witness at the foot of her cross.

If you've already consumed something, you can still participate in some way, I leave that to you how.

On this, the 10th anniversary of Evangelium Vitae, let us join ourselves with Terri and other victims of the Culture of Death.
