I don't know which is worse,continuing a delusion that a dead person is still alive, or if she really was alive in there, but trapped in a body that can't respond, possibly permanently unable to control her body,her life,her future,it's worse than prison,even solitary confinement

If there is no brain activity then a person can’t survive without life support...therefore consider medically dead.

why wasn't she more encouraged to lose weight, to cure her sleep apnea? she didn't want the surgery, how can parents who basically coerced/forced her to get it, ever be seen as 'having her best interests at heart'? they made the wrong decision then, & continue to do so

The New Yorker should be ashamed of themselves for writing this article. The family did not follow after care instructions and should feel utterly guilty for what they did. Instead they are playing the race card. How much did they pay the New Yorker to write this article?

It's the best article I've read in a long time. That's dysthanasia. That's only her body. No one must be treated in that way.

"Sandra was visiting, and she asked the doctor on call to give Jahi a heating pad and Motrin—all the women in her family had severe cramps" perhaps this was a mistake,maybe being in bad pain,would cause her(if it was at all possible, & I don't believe it is, but still) to awaken?
-
She's dead. Dead people don't wake up.

I agree, but dead people also don't menstruate, that's a bodily function requiring signals from a part of the brain, & hormones to be produced, it's not the same as the machines breathing for her, & circulating her blood, or forcing nutrients into her stomach or veins

if any movements she allegedly makes r purposeful,&she's recovered2an extent,I wonder how families of ppl taken off a vent relatively soon after perceived 'brain death' feel about that?do they wonder if their loved 1 could've/would've recovered(to the extent this is 'recovery')?

so many mistakes made, from doing surgery at all,when she didn't want it, & when it was found that her carotid artery "appeared abnormally close to the pharynx," to working on her for 2 HOURS, before declaring her dead, to allowing the postponment of the removal of the ventilator
-
her brain, and, thus everything that she was, beyond the physical, died, during that 2 hours (much longer than they should've, or, probably usually, try, spurred by guilt at not helping/fixing her sooner, no doubt)

the article states Ms. McMath did not want the surgery,&peppered surgeon w/questions,encouraged to do so by her mom,saying, "It's your body,"...until ur brain dies,&it isn't anymore,b/c ur parents refuse2accept reality,&want a huge settlement&those SSI payments to keep rolling in

Clearly it is http://dysthanasia.In medicine, dysthanasia means "bad death" and is considered a common fault of modern medicine:it occurs when a person who is dying has their biological life extended through technological means without regard to the person's quality of life.

The death of a child Has got to be unimaginable. The pain, guilt and helplessness would slowly kill a parent. But at some point you have to stop and think who you are keeping the child alive for? You or them? At what point does it become crucially?
