Sometimes I think they just want the body parts as with Jahi McMath. Remember her? I met her mom, I knew that story well as I posted it here and met her mom at a pro life convention.

The vultures were swarming over Jahi’s body but her mom would not give in.

I trust no one in the medical world anymore.

It depends, you do have to be extremely careful who to trust. if its a lifelong doc, its different than one you don’t know from Adam or Eve.

The bottom line is you have to be in charge of your own care, no one else cares as much if you live or die than you do. Same with your family, especially when they can’t do it for themselves.

And everything needs to be verified. I have known people that have had to prevent nurses and docs doing things to theirkids that would have killed them, because they got dosages wrong, or they did not know their treatment would have a different effect than the parent did.

Yes. I remember. And Jahi McMath was finally removed from life support on June 22nd, 2018 after the internal bleeding resulting from both liver and kidney failure, could not be stopped. While the family claimed she was improving and moving on command, it’s hard to say if her movements were involuntary or not. The bottom line is that she never came off the ventilator to breath on her own and her heart only kept beating because of the ventilator and she never regained consciousness.
