I do hope that Lori was not aware even though her facial movements appear that she was exhibiting pain. Comatose patient can grimace but not remember later if they awaken. I do hope with all my heart that she wasn't aware of how much her body was suffering.
I have never in my life seen a trauma patient treated with such disrespect. When I think of the care that I have given to trauma patient working as an OR nurse and an EMT the thing that sticks out the most about this film is the rough treatment of the cervical spine and her head. I have held manual cervical traction on patients with multiple skull fractures and it is much like trying to hold together a cracked egg. You have to maintain a head position very carefully in order not to cause further injury. This makes me want to puke.

See post #14. It makes you wonder if this reprehensible mistreatment may have greatly contributed to her death.
