Indeed! This is the frightening part of donating organs. Who doesn’t want to help out other people, but that was almost a tragedy for the family. What if the mother hadn’t been holding her hand? Prayers for all those involved in this cruel tragedy.
George Carlin had a routine on that. “The paramedics see organ donor on your license, you think they’re going to try to save you. ‘Don’t give him any oxygen, he’s got that liver we’ve been looking for!” It’s on YouTube, but I didn’t link it because of language.
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.
