A 14-year-old girl wounded during the shooting rampage in Kalamazoo, Mich., was declared brain-dead and about to have her organs harvested when she suddenly showed signs of life, according to a new report Monday.
Michigan State Police Lt. Dale Hinz told ABC that the girl's family said Bronson Methodist Hospital was preparing to remove the girl's organs for donation when she squeezed her distraught mom's hand.
The girl squeezed her mother's hand again when the mom asked if her daughter could hear her, Hinz said.
She also gave thumbs-up signs with both hands when a doctor asked her to give him a thumbs-up if she could hear him, Hinz said.

The only one brain-dead here was the doctor who declared her brain-dead.
Unfortunately, I responded to many incidents during my career as a firefighter after the police had reported that someone was dead. Unfortunately, the police incorrectly identified people as dead on several occasions.
We know that pharmaceutical companies “reward” doctors for prescribing their medications. Last I checked, anti-rejection drugs are pretty pricey. Conflict of interest?
Nobody dies before their time
Nobody lives beyond their appointed time
It’s easy, quit tripping. This life is a flash in the pan. Straight up, cowgirl
This shooter should be tied down and his organs harvested without anesthesia.
can you pm me the link?
(Married to a soldier. I think I can handle just about any harsh language out there.)
[Good thing her last name wasn’t Schiavo]
Yeah, no kidding.
In a just world, the POS that perpetrated this crime would die in the boats.
Or Jahi.
“A horrible death was averted here by the grace of God.”
Many?I know firefighter’s and this has never happened.
Why I’m not a donor.
Yeah, should have been “before organs WERE TO BE harvested”
Then she wasn’t brain dead, was she?
Praise and Thanks be to God :)!!!
Oh, the ghouls are quick. But that girl was quicker. She can thank her mother that she was with her up to the very moment.
Wow, pretty quick to get the organs harvested. I think this is going on all the time. Hospitals and insurance companies don’t have to operate or treat injured patients. The hospitals can charge a butt load for the organ. Everyone wins. Well, almost.
That’s what I was thinking, it made it sound like she was giving the okay..lol
It never did make sense that they were harvesting dead organs. Makes you wonder why people aren't more skeptical about signing up to be organ donors.
