Letting him just suffocate and die like that seems brutal even if he is brain-dead. I've never understood why they don't just give him a vial of morphine and let whatever's left float away peacefully. They did the same shit with Terry Schaivo, disconnect the feeding tube and literally let her rot away. Absolutely fucking brutal, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Read the thread, retard. Even the highlights aren't hard to do in such a short thread and the OP had enough for you to educate yourself. You literally cannot miss the information that renders your post as being in another reality. The amount of people agreeing with you is crazy given the massive swathe of info in the OP alone. This is not like Terry in the slightest.
His brain was too necrotic to register pain at all and his lungs did not communicate with anything hence the ventilator. He could not
suffocate because there was no fight to breathe at all on any level. There was nothing to float away. His brain was so dead that morphine has zero function, it doesn't do anything, it doesn't register pain or distress that requires relief from opiates. He had zero awareness or bodily function. They took off the vent, his chest went still, and he turned blue minutes later. That is how bodies die, he died normally, and nobody had to listen to a death rattle or see him panic or struggle. They would have been told what would happen. There was no suffering, he didn't have enough brain to suffer with, the hospital were exceptionally careful in his futile treatment that definitely wasn't brutal to anybody.
ETA it
really fucks me off when anyone is wilfully ignorant to this extent that just perpetuates the idea that the hospital, forced to keep a corpse alive for 4 months with extremely delicate medication and mechanical intervention, are assholes for not doing things for Archie and his batshit mother that were utterly fucking redundant in every way. They did
everything required and
more to appease Hollie's insanity and keep the body going during litigious hell from her. I implore anyone new here to read from the OP and through the highlights before you post your shitty take like this one, as there's literally no excuse to be this retarded. None whatsoever.
