Something is missing from the story. No one recovers from rigor mortis and no one can talk while on a ventilator.

I think God likes to show off every once in a while.

Divine intervention or human error?

“It would be better if we could get rid of the Democrats!!!!”

This phenomenon is a common occurrence in WVA. How else can you explain Sen. Byrd?

I wonder the same thing. If there wasn’t human error in diagnosing her brain waves and time without oxygen, then next I would suspect that the machines kept her down or worse - that the hospital wanted to harvest her organs.

Not that I don’t want to believe in the Divine, only that I would first want to rule out all the possible earthly possibilities.

“Divine intervention or human error?”

Human Error. They didn’t harvest her organs quickly enough.

The right-to-die crowd won’t like this.

Hard to say. But why would they monitor brain waves for 17 hours?

Atheists, Schiavo-killers, abortion-lovers, Objectivists, and euthanasia enthusiasts, riddle me this: if consciousness is merely an epiphenomenon of brain activity, if brain activity = mind, how does a woman with a flatlined EEG for 17 hours wake up and resume normal life?

A respiratory machine kept her breathing and rigor mortis had set in,
+++++++++++++++++++
I think there is more to this story that the doctors and hospital would not like to be public. Something stinks here.

You posted: THIS is the reason there are wakes and vigils for the recently departed. Our forefathers had learned that there is good reason to allow time to be sure the presumed dead are really dead.

This is also why Lazarus and Jesus Christ were in the tomb for 3 days. This assured that they were really dead. No one could effectively argue that they were not. Lazarus and Jesus Christ were raised from the dead. Amen.

Ping for this woman’s second chance. I’m surprised it was at the Cleveland Clinic but she’s glad to be here by all accounts.
