Schiavo, then 26, collapsed in her home in 1990 and experienced respiratory and cardiac arrest. Within three years, she was diagnosed as being in a persistent vegetative state. In 1998, Terri's husband and guardian Michael Schiavo patitioned the courts to remove her gastric feeding tube. But Terri's parents, Robert and Mary Schindler, opposed this. The courts found that Terri Schiavo was in a persistent vegetative state and that she should not be kept alive. In 2003, the matter began to receive United States national attention. By March 2005, the legal history around the Schiavo case included fourteen appeals and numeous motions, petitions, and hearings in the Florida courts. Despite intervention by the other branches, the courts continued to hold that Schiavo was in a persistent vegetative state and would want to cease life support. Her feeding tube was removed a third and final time on March 18, 2005. She died thirteen days later of dehydration at a Pinellas Park hospice on March 31, 2005, at the age of 41.
