Yes, the autopsy revealed that her brain was so severly damaged, in fact less than half of it even remained and they agreed her case was indeed hopeless.
This case of course is very different.
That was an interesting comment by the assisting M.E. It didn't actually say that however. It just mentioned the weight of her brain was about 1/2. Cerebral cortex "relatively intact". Remember how you guys tossed that one around like bulimia? Being the body is 90 % water and we have a "most sever case of dehydration I have ever seen" according to main M.E., will, you figure it out.
