The culture of deaths considers actual death to be a formality.

Wonder what kind of recovery and quality of life she can expect?
My personal opinion, but under no circumstance sign an organ card. The brain knows what’s occurring after what doctrors now call ‘death’ and they start to cut. This woman’s experience should (but won’t)-—wait,
Why doesn’t a pro-life lawyer file a suit in Federal court immediately to stop all organ harvesting until a case can be heard—based on this woman’s and others experiences—that the new medical definition of when they can start cutting is cruel and unusual punishment, or many other legal reasons to stop the procedures before an adequate amount of time goes by.
“Those donors are known not to be brain dead but are usually first in a coma and the doctor decides treatment is futile.”
And they wonder why more people don’t check off the organ donor consent on their driver’s licences.
I heard this on the news the other day - absolutely incredible as rigor mortis had supposedly set in.
The article raises some serious concerns especially regarding those in car accidents and such as they pointed out. I’m sure there’s not a doctor out there who would’ve considered it even a remote possibility that this woman would EVER wake up - and here she is, not only breathing, and heart beating, but alert, and SPEAKING!
The woman herself gives all the glory to God. In the interview I saw she said, “I must have some more to do here”.
Based on this comment, I doubt that she truly ever went into rigor mortis. She was just really cold!

I really don’t know what all the fuss is about. There is billions of dollars made every year in organ harvesting and transplanting. Now they want to make sure the adults are actually dead before they’re sliced up?
No problem Doc, go for the top dollar and quit worrying about the little stuff. We’re all going to die anyway, so there can’t be anything wrong with speeding up the process.
Babies that are being aborted sure aren’t brain dead. The mother and the doctor maybe are but that baby sure is NOT or else they wouldn’t be doing the abortion. Right? It’s legal to kill babies, so why the questions about cutting up the adults?
I’m pretty sure I’ve been clinically dead on more than one midwatch. But when I thought I woke up in Hell I was just back at work.
I signed my organ donor papers and I have no problem with them harvesting my organs if I am ever in the shape this woman was in.
I signed knowing there would always be a very very tiny chance that I might recover from a seemingly hopeless condition.
I will remain an organ donor.
