The scenario of this article worries me. What if you are a young, healthy person who got into an accident and was rendered unconscious, but not badly hurt. You are taken to the hospital.
In the morning you wake up, put your clothes on, and go home.
BUT.
There’s an old geezer in this hospital, a man way up in his 70’s, a multi-millionaire who desperately wants a liver and/or heart transplant because he killed his own internal organs with booze & dope when he was young. And you are a genetically perfect match.
For a hefty price, the doctor gives you a shot that puts you in a “medically induced coma”. Then he tells your family that you will never wake up. And if the family is uninformed, they will sign the Donor Organ papers. Now your body belongs to THEM, even though you are still young and healthy and could have walked out of there. I’ve seen it happen, and this $#!+ worries me.

Maybe you’ve seen that, maybe not, but it didn’t happen here, in this case, so ....calm down. Rejoice!

You're seen cases where doctors were paid a hefty price and purposely killed a young person to harvest their organs...

Here's a hint...that stuff on the T.V. isn't real...

I'm not saying "brain dead" patients aren't prematurely harvested, but your scenario doesn't happen...

The medical based novel titled “Coma” by Robin Cook might interest you.
