My step-daughter's mom survived another week. It was a blessing for both.
Her family told the lieutenant that an hour or two later, the hospital was in the process of preparing her organs for donation .
All about the money. Big money in those harvested organs.
Kalamazoo? Makes me think of Dr. Seuss.
But ... I have a question about this whole incident:
With the anti-gun fervor in the federal administration these days, why was this story TOTALLY dark for the most part in the national/world press, or from the lips our current president?
Any ideas out there?? ... other than the individuals in the press and administration are waiting to pounce on the Uber IPO??
My daughter, a registered nurse, told me to never never never sign an organ donor card. If they have an organ donor card for you, they will not try to save you.
I would LOVE to see the evidence that she was “pronounced brain dead”. Who signed the Death Certificate?
A friend’s pregnant daughter, who had had a stroke, was declared dead in the ER. Her gurney was pushed away into a corner. Friend begged for a resuscitation attempt, or effort to try to save the baby, to no avail. Then friend said in her daughter’s ear that she had to squeeze her finger, or both she and her baby would be allowed to die. Firm squeeze for Mom, and another firm squeeze for a disbelieving nurse. The daughter and baby survived. Baby is now a mother of two.
Families should remember the hearing is last to go, and that it’s necessary to be vigilant and assertive.
My Dad was writing a book on a Monday, had a heart attack on Tues. and was put in intensive care where nurses had standard orders to administer a great range of medication, without additional Dr. approval. He was so loopy from the med that he was declared demented on Wednesday. Yes, we became assertive.
