Copied from Ron Panzer's Hospice Patients Alliance newsletter:

Hi,

Some of you did not receive the prior email with the mailing address for
Carla Sauer Iyer, RN. Please send your donations to her ($5 $10 or
more) at:


Carla Iyer R.N.
502 Sugar Creek Drive
Plant City, Florida 33563

for another story about her victory (at the Board of Nursing) against
those who tried to harm her for standing up for life, see:
http://www.lifenews.com/bio1715.html

Thanks for supporting those who have stood up for LIFE!


If people contemplate and really see the sanctity of life, their
"quality of life" arguments fall away and they will understand that we
are here to care for each other, not to kill each other. Caring, and not
convenience, is the sign of a civilized and just society!

> Nurse won't lose license for discussing Schiavo case on TV
> Associated Press
>
> TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - A registered nurse who discussed Terri Schiavo's
> condition on television last year won't lose her license, a Florida
> Board of Nursing panel ruled.
>
> The Panel of Probable Cause, a two-member board, dismissed a complaint
> Thursday against Carla Sauer-Iyer, 42, of Plant City.
>
> She had raised concerns in a CNN interview about the brain-damaged
> woman's welfare at the Largo convalescent center where she treated
> Schiavo in the 1990s and in two legal depositions. The March 2005
> interview came during the last rounds of legal battles before Schiavo
> died after her feeding tube was removed.
>
> A lawyer representing the Department of Health said rules requiring
> nurses not to disclose patient information also require them to report
> "apparent neglect and abuse" of patients.
>
> "The obligation to protect the patient must prevail," said Assistant
> General Counsel Kathryn Price told the panel and recommended it reverse
> its previous vote which found probable cause to act against the nurse.
>
> In May, the Health Department filed an administrative complaint against
> Sauer-Iyer for disclosing confidential information about Schiavo, who
> doctors said was in a persistent vegetative state. The Health Department
> changed its position after Gov. Jeb Bush's office sided with Sauer-Iyer.
>
> She became an ally of Bob and Mary Schindler, Schiavo's parents. They
> battled their daughter's husband, Michael Schiavo, over the removal of
> the feeding tube.
>
> Michael Schiavo said the nursing panel was merely responding to pressure
> from the governor.
>
> "When the governor, who commanded the Department of Health, tells his
> people to get this case dismissed, it's going to be dismissed," he said.
>
> Sauer-Iyer said justice was served.
>
> "I would do it again under personal risk," she said.
