Do you remember this whole story? 13 year old girl went in for routine surgery, hospital declares her brain dead, parents fight in court, they issue a death certificate, but let her take the girl to another hospital.
"After weeks of intense litigation, a deal was brokered in the U.S. District Court in Oakland whereby Jahi’s mother, Nailah, was allowed to remove Jahi from Children’s. As part of the proceedings, Alameda Superior Court Judge Emilio Grillo ruled that Children’s did not have to keep Jahi on a ventilator because, pursuant to California’s brain death statute, Health and Safety Code Section 7180 & 7181, Jahi was legally “brain dead,” meaning total and irreversible loss of brain function including the brain stem. Medical experts, including those from Children’s Hospital, said that Jahi’s organs would shut down and her brain would liquefy."
The update: She is moving on command? "Tests and examinations of Jahi have been performed at Rutgers University in New Jersey with brain researchers and neurologists reviewing and performing them, Dolan said. Those working with the International Brain Research Foundation include Elena Labkovsky, who performed an EEG on Jahi, Cuban neurologist Dr. Calixto Machado and Dr. Charles Prestigiacomo, chair of the department of neurological surgery at Rutgers.
According to DeFina, an MRI shows Jahi’s brain is intact and that there is blood flow to it, which does not fit the criteria for brain death."
