Brain death is a contrived excuse to protect doctors out to make a big buck harvesting organs.
3 years ago I called for a dental appointment because I lost a filling. No answer. I tried for several days, gave up and called a different dentist.
My wife told me his office was closed.
3 months ago (3 years later), I found out his office was open so I got an appointment and had my teeth cleaned.
I found out that he’d had a heart attack and then complications and went into a coma. After 3 weeks in a coma, the hospital declared him brain dead and started to schedule organ harvesting. Two days later as they were about to start cutting; he sat up, and got out of bed.
That’s pretty good. Going from brain dead to walking around and going back to his dental practice.
Re: Going back to being a dentist
Yes, it is remarkable. He absolutely could not have been seriously brain damaged. Dentistry is surgery and requires superior mental clarity and fine muscular dexterity.
