This week: Remember Terri Schiavo? End of life issues with her brother Bobby Schindler and St. Jude Hospice CEO Tom Moreland

Bobby Schindler, brother of Terri Schiavo, starved to death by order of a Florida judge in 2005, will join us for this week’s edition of Faith on Trial.  Bobby heads up the Terri Schiavo Life &Hope Network and will discuss some of the legal and societal issues involving persons with disabilities or who are incapacitated who face life threatening situations.  Also joining us will be Tom Moreland, founder and chief executive officer of St. Jude Hospice.  We will be discussing the legal issues, pitfalls, and warnings for those with loved ones who may be facing terminal illnesses, and how to avoid the pressure to “euthanize” (and “yes” it happens!) those you love.  Check out our new times: Saturday at 8 a.m.; Sunday at 2 & 7 p.m.; and Monday at 9 p.m. – all times Central – on Iowa Catholic Radio, 1150 AM; 88.5 & 94.5 FM and streaming live on IowaCatholicRadio.com.
