Nope. At that point, I'd rather just be let go. Less of an emotional and financial strain on my family, too.

Nooooope. I work in a setting where I semi frequently see brain dead (or, on the brink of it) patients. The shit people are put through (that they probably wouldn't have wanted in the first place) is AWFUL. Please make sure your loved ones know your wishes/have advanced directives/etc. Something.

Thing is the brain isn't accessible that way either. Only way it could've happened was the anesthesiologist used the wrong gas or too much gas.

Seriously, Jesus. I hope that doctor lost his license. He shouldnt be operating on anyone ever again.

No. Only way would've been through the foramen magnum but then he shouldn't be a surgeon because that means she was face down for a tonsillectomy
