I’m sure the family is paying the hospital bills.

And you know this how?

FWIW, keeping a patient on life support in an intensive care unit costs, at a minimum, $2,000-$4,000 per day and can run much higher depending on the patient’s condition, into hundreds of thousands a year.

Nobody recovers from brain death. Ever.

If the family was not paying the bills, have no standing in the courtroom.

Furthermore, the mother thinks that her daughter is living.

Do you want to live in a country where an elected judge decides if you’re dead or alive?

My local California paper reported the cost is $10,000/day.
