You're nasty because you're a bitter little person, small of soul and large of spittle. You show yourself to be a mean, vicious little woman, bitter at the world and always spitting on the hopes of others. Instead of seeing the potential to bring back those who are loved, in your bitterness you promote killing off hope and stomping on the hearts of those who desire with all their heart to return their loved ones to health. You are a loveless, bitter, little person. I pity you, but I will not suffer your insults and nastiness to those grasping for hope, I will write the truth about you every time you lash out to hurt others. So just keep it up you twisted dark soul. You are disgusting.

I've read the entire article, so what's your question?

Here's a salient passage fromt he article:

Nel and Clauss have a hypothesis. After the brain has suffered severe trauma, a chemical known as Gaba (gamma amino butyric acid) closes down brain functions in order to conserve energy and help cells survive. However, in such a long-term dormant state, the receptors in the brain cells that respond to Gaba become hypersensitive, and as Gaba is a depressant, it causes a persistent vegetative state.

It is thought that during this process the receptors are in some way changed or deformed so that they respond to zolpidem differently from normal receptors, thus breaking the hold of Gaba. This could mean that instead of sending patients to sleep as usual, it makes dormant areas of the brain function again and some comatose patients wake up.

Actually, I think I've mistaken you for another person who follows me around calling me names..so let's talk here. What have I said that makes me so bitter? I just want to know who is going to pay to keep everybody alive no matter what? That doesn't make me bitter, that makes me a realist. And no, I don't think people's bodies should be kept alive by any means possible...I don't think that's humane. Wanting to return loved ones to health is one thing, but doing that against all hope is clearly another. Medical advances enable people to keep bodies alive but I believe their souls should be set free from the confines of a body that does not work. That is spiritual. THAT is religion, is it not?
