The problem is that declaring someone brain dead is actually a subjective call. And, when the possibility of harvesting a person's organs is in play it makes the decision suspect.

I haven't really followed this case much, but when the person in question can respond in any way, by blinking on command or attempting to smile, the person is not "brain dead."

Yeah...none of that is happening.

This girl died almost a month ago.

Get ready for some folks here to disagree with you and claim that the declaration of 'brain death' is clear cut. It is not.

What is considered brain dead in one location is not brain dead in another. To make matters worse, the same committee that sets the organ transplant rules is the one that sets the criteria for when a person can be declared brain dead and their organs harvested.

Just wait for the Obamacare committees get in charge. They'll be using your voting record to determine if you get to keep your organs.
