It could help yield information useful to healthy people as well. There's nothing quite like subtraction by which to distinguish evidences of systems that are otherwise obscured by noise.

I agree.

Doctors who believe in killing handicapped patients make few great discoveries.

They are merely executioners.

tried, there was fraud involved all around, including the hospital, the funeral home manager stepped up and signed and afidavit, still we did not get any action on my state complaints, they were found guilty, but there is not any regulation, so they get off scott free, I keep on plugging, I did get legislation passed though, it will help protect others that want to donate from their loved ones being scavenged without their permission.

Since hospitals have federal mandates in place which allow charts to be obtained by immediate family from the medical records department (this isn't a local issue) you should write to the AG in your state and if that doesn't work, go to your Senator, the US AG etc.... but a good attorney would know that. It's a FOIA issue. Good luck.

I'm glad you posted this, as I was about to. Very interesting article, as it clearly lays the groundwork that there *might* have been life after all in Terri Schiavo. Of course, the NYT couldn't run that story as-is so they had to pepper this article with all kinds of "BUT, you know, this didn't apply to Terri Schiavo" BS.

Truth is, no one really knows what goes in in an injured brain so we HAVE to err on the side of life.
