Another 'Dead' Man Now Recovering

Dateline NBC recently ran this story about Zach Dunlap. 21-year-old Zach had flipped his ATV and suffered a serious brain injury.

His doctor ordered a blood flow scan to determine if there was any blood still coursing through Zack’s brain. Zach's mom explained, "The doctor took us in and showed us the image on the computer. And he told us the dark areas will be the areas where there's no blood flow to the brain . . . and that was the whole brain. That was the whole thing. It was just black." Zach was declared brain dead. As Zach's doctor explained, "he was dead. He meets the legal, medical requirements for declaring a patient brain dead. "

The facts suggest that the brain death tests were accurately performed. But hours after being declared dead, his doctors detected "purposeful movements." He was not dead after all. As MSNBC reports, "tests can be fallible . . . [and] doctors here haven't been able to explain Zack’s return from a scientific standpoint."

Sure as death and taxes is the drone of death bots. Whining may be heard afar from these poor critters cheered only by deaths. Killing the unborn is a thankless lot of work and is rough on the nails, too. I can only post an excerpt from this site.

..................................

The bill requires these women to pay for the ultrasound, which could be a few hundred dollars and is just an additional barrier placed in the paths of those who feel, for whatever personal reason, they are unable to have a child at this time.

All this in order to make a hard decision even more punitive. When protection of human life is less concerned with the living and is preoccupied with the lesser-developed existence, then we certainly should re-prioritize. The protection of the embryo and the developing fetus appears to be on a higher agenda for the conservatives in the Republican Party. The philosophy within the party stresses individual responsibility. Social Security, Medicare and other reforms that try to protect the weakest in our society are programs that the Republicans feel take away from individual responsibility.............

Legislature favoring unborn over the born, again
