Terris Day

31

Mar

"Terri's Day," on March 31, remembers Terri Schiavo, who was at the center of a big debate about the right to live or die. Terri was very sick and couldn't speak for herself. Her family wanted to keep her alive, but her husband thought she wouldn't want to stay on machines. The day is about thinking of people who, like Terri, can't make decisions because they are too sick. It's a reminder to talk about what we want to happen if we get really sick, so our family knows what to do to help us in the best way.

How to celebrate Terris Day?

Start your day by making a special card for Terri. Use bright colors and draw pictures that remind you of her. Play games that Terri loves, like her favorite board game or video game. Bake or buy her favorite treat and enjoy it together. Plan a fun activity like watching her favorite movie or going for a walk in the park. If you can, give Terri a small gift to show how much she means to you. At the end of the day, tell Terri why she is special to you and share a big hug.
