      There's another story of a young man who was declared dead/ready for donation and when his father saw signs of life the hospital staff ignored him so the dad stood by his hospital bed and literally held them off at gunpoint until his son started showing more obvious signs of life they couldn't ignore.

      The battery of questions they make the family answer for medical and social history was enough to take me off the fence and firmly into the never-ever side. The same day you find out your loved one was in a terrible accident and your world is ripped up you are now answering a hundred questions including things like sexual history about that loved one. This also made me cringe at the thought of ever needing to be at the receiving end of a donation because you may not really know what you are getting if the family didn't know the full history or if there was an undiagnosed, undetected infection in the donor.

      @susanoshaughnessy943 Місяць тому +15

      It’s the donor organization, not the hospital. Hospitals are required by law to cooperate with organ procurement organizations. If they don’t, they can be sanctioned and Medicaid/Medicare funds are withheld. In some states OPOs have lobbied to have donation made an advance directive- even though there’s little information/no informed consent when prospective donors sign up. This leaves family with no say. They can’t object to donation.

      Dr's are immune to prosecution except on very rare occasion. If you recall dr. Hussel they had an entire playboy on how to put everyone against 1 amazing dr for end of life care (to cover the hospital's incredible overprescribing and many other accusations ). Just like police, blueline gang, nobody speaks out, everyone sticks together except when they have a common target.... for the greater good or whatever.

    This is horrific and it makes me question the ENTIRE program. It is highly unlikely that this man showed absolutely no signs of life for several days and then just suddenly wakes up enough to understand what is happening and begins thrashing around, shoving people away, crying etc. so these drs likely knew this man was NOT dead for days and still chose to try to sacrifice him. Then they see him waking up at the honor walk, if his family noticed him tracking the room and registering what was going on guaranteed the drs and nurses noticed to…but they marched right on anyway fully intent on KILLING this man. It’s only when he starts physically fighting for his life that some of them step back and go…mmm maybe not. The actual hell? What if the signs of life were more subtle? They would have just murdered him. How many other people have they done this to who maybe couldn’t thrash around and actively push them away but were still alive? Or could’ve been saved?

It differs from persistent vegetative state, in which the person is alive and some autonomic functions remain. It is also distinct from comas as long as some brain and bodily activity and function remain, and it is also not the same as the condition locked-in syndrome.

    This had nothing to do with “honoring a patient’s wishes about organ donation.” You need to actually reach that point medically first and that’s the problem. There’s a massive systemic incentive to reach that goal, leading to death declarations for living patients so organs can be harvested. So many facilities and their transplant coordinators place relentless pressure on the next of kin to give final permission that it crosses the bioethics line a hundredfold. When you’re programmed to see dead patients and see them only for their many organs, you’re going to see brain dead patients regardless what your eyes, common sense and medical training say to the contrary; it’s the same as going through life as a hammer. When you do, everyone looks like a nail.
