Terri Schiavo’s siblings to defend disabled with new radio show

Mar 8, 2008 / 15:22 pm

The brother and sister of Terri Schiavo are launching a radio show called “America’s Lifeline” to address and educate Americans about health care, end-of-life issues and the disabled. The show will make its debut on March 15 and will be hosted by The Healthcare Advocate, Carry Hall.   

The weekly hour-long program, which is being sponsored by "Terri's Foundation", will originate from the studios of Talk Radio 860 WGUL in Tampa, FL and also be broadcast on the internet at http://860wgul.townhall.com/.

Planned topics for the show include discussion of the national healthcare situation, care for the disabled, euthanasia, doctor assisted suicide and controversial end-of-life cases.

Cary Hall, who will host the show, is also the host of a successful radio show called The Health Insurance Advocate which broadcasts from Talk Radio 710 KCMO in Kansas City, Missouri and also on Talk Radio1330 KNSS in Wichita, Kansas. Bobby Schindler and Suzanne Vitadamo, who both direct the Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation, will co-host the program with Hall.

"America's Lifeline is something we've wanted to do for some time, and with Cary Hall's health care expertise, and my family's experience trying to save Terri and now running her foundation which works to save those like Terri, we'll be able to educate Americans and raise awareness about the euthanasia movement like never before", said Suzanne Vitadamo.

The premiere of America's Lifeline is set for 3 p.m. EST on Saturday, March 15, 2008. The program is poised to expand into other Florida radio markets including Orlando and Miami.
