List of Brain Dead Patients Who've Recovered
Brain dead means not dead. Don't trust that diagnosis: A
surgeon would have cut out the eyes of "brain dead" 14-year-old Taylor
Hale of Iowa if she hadn't awakened in time. A man from Mississippi was
being shipped to the morgue when he began kicking his way out of his
body bag. Expanded from an earlier list published by LifeSiteNews.com,
Bob Enyart and Fred Williams' broadcast their most important "List Show"
yet. Google: brain dead people who recover. You'll probably find us
ranked #1 out of a million pages. And American Right To Life is linking

Real
Science Radio's list of "brain dead" patients who've recovered tells
shows that doctors and hospitals are sometimes dead wrong.
August 2016 - Nineteen days after
her car flipped over, the doctors of 22-year-old Sam Hemming were about
to give up on her because she was obviously “brain dead” "with no hope of recovery".
Yet moments before she would likely have died from their withdrawing
her care, Sam wiggling her toe. From there, fighting back, she made a
tremendous recovery in only weeks. Mental and physical exercise has
reprogrammed the undamaged side of her brain! (The only sad part of this
story is that Sam still plans on becoming a lawyer! :)
May 2015 - In Des Moines, Iowa as reported by USA Today, "Taylor's
brain sank part way into her spinal canal. No one comes back from that,
the doctors told Taylor's mother, Stacy, and her father, Chuck Hale.
Nothing more could be done. Their daughter was brain dead. It was time
to make arrangements to take her off life support and discuss organ
donation. ... Taylor Hale, considered brain dead by science, awoke
from her coma. ... " So the staff doctors will harvest organs, cut out
the eyes, etc., of living children at the Des Moines Blank Children's
Hospital, hereafter known as Blankity Blank Hospital. See also this, this, this, this, and this.
January 2015 - George Pickering, a 27-year old Texan,
was pronounced brain dead by doctors at the Tomball Regional Medical
Center when his father threatened to shoot himself if anyone
disconnected his son from life support. During the standoff with police,
the son repeatedly squeezed his father's hand, and then woke up later that evening, has made a strong recovery, and in April was baptized after converting to Christianity.
July 2013 - A New York woman who was pronounced ‘brain dead’ by doctors unexpectedly awoke just as her organs were about to be removed for transplant.
October 2012 - A documentary titled “Pigen der ikke ville dø” (“The girl who refused to die”), aired on Danish TV, telling the story of 19-year-old Carina Melchior, who awoke after doctors declared her "brain dead" and had approached the family about considering donating her organs.
April 2012- Doctors declared british teen Stephen Thorpe "brain
dead," telling the father that the boy would never recover from a
serious car accident. Despite pressure from the doctors, the father
would not consent to allow the boy’s organs to be donated. With the help
of other doctors, five weeks later Thorpe left the hospital, having almost completely recovered.
July 2011 - Madeleine Gauron, a Quebec woman — identified as viable
for organ donation after doctors diagnosed her as "brain dead" — surprised her family and physicians when she recovered from a coma, opened her eyes, and began eating.
May 2011 - An Australian woman declared “brain dead” regained consciousness after family fought for weeks doctor recommendations that her ventilator be shut off.
February 2008 - 65-year-old Raleane Kupferschmidt was taken home to
die after relatives were told by doctors that she was "brain dead" from
a massive cerebral hemorrhage. The family had already begun to grieve
and plan for her funeral when she suddenly awoke and was rushed back to the hospital.
March 2008 - In one particularly chilling case, 21-year-old Zack
Dunlap, who was declared "brain dead" following an ATV accident,
recounted how he remembers hearing doctors discussing harvesting his
organs. Zack showed signs of life
only moments before he was scheduled to be wheeled into the operating
theater to have his organs removed. One of Zack’s relatives provoked the
reaction by digging a pocketknife under his fingernail.
May 2008 - A Virginia family was shocked but relieved when their
mother, Val Thomas, woke up after doctors declared her ‘brain dead’.
Doctors had not detected brain waves for more than 17 hours, but kept
the woman breathing on a respirator. The family was discussing organ
donation options for their mother when she suddenly woke up and started speaking to nurses.
June 2008 - A Parisian whose organs were about to be removed by doctors after he had "died" of a heart attack, revived on the operating table only minutes before doctors were to begin harvesting his organs.

* HORROR OF HORRORS: Forget "brain dead", doctors sometimes even get a coma wrong.From the Daily Mail by Allan Hall...
Man trapped in 23-year 'coma' reveals horror of being unable to tell doctors he was conscious.
A car crash victim has spoken of the horror he endured for 23 years
after he was misdiagnosed as being in a coma when he was conscious the
whole time. Rom Houben, trapped in his paralyzed body after a car crash,
described his real-life nightmare as he screamed to doctors that he
could hear them - but could make no sound. 'I screamed, but there was
nothing to hear,' said Mr Houben, now 46, who doctors thought was in a persistent vegetative state [BE:
an inherently dehumanizing term]. Doctors used a range of coma tests
before reluctantly concluding that his consciousness was 'extinct'.
[T]op neurological expert Dr Steven Laurey... believes there may be many
similar cases of false comas around the world...
[Rom] now has a special device above his bed which lets him read books
while lying down. Mr Houben said: 'I shall never forget the day when
they discovered what was truly wrong with me - it was my second birth. I
want to read, talk with my friends via the computer and enjoy my life now that people know I am not dead.'
Dr Laureys' new study claims that patients classed as in a vegetative state are often misdiagnosed.
'Anyone who bears the stamp of "unconscious" just one time hardly ever
gets rid of it again,' he said. The doctor, who leads the Coma Science
Group and Department of Neurology at Liege University Hospital... plans
to use the case to highlight what he considers may be similar examples
around the world. Dr Laureys said: 'In Germany alone... an estimated
3,000 to 5,000 people a year remain trapped in an intermediate stage -
they go on living without ever coming back again.' Supporters of
euthanasia and assisted suicide argue that people who have lain in
persistent vegetative states for years should be given the opportunity
to have crucial medical support withdrawn because of the 'indignity' of
their condition. But there have been several cases in which people
judged to be in vegetative states or deep comas have recovered. Twenty
years ago, Carrie Coons, an 86-year-old from New York, regained
consciousness after a year, took small amounts of food by mouth and
engaged in conversation. Only days before her recovery, a judge
had granted her family's request for the removal of the feeding tube
which had been keeping her alive. ... Read more here.
* Swedish man hears doctors urging the harvesting of his organs:
Doctors in Sweden discussed organ donation within earshot of Jimi
Fritze as he lay in hospital after a stroke. To the doctor's shocking
surprise, Fritze could hear every word they said. However, he couldn't
object because he couldn't move. He had suffered a stroke, and after the
doctors looked at a scan of his brain, they gave his family bad news,
and claimed that "there was no hope," Fritze said. Jimi Fritze said! As reported in Sweden by The Local,
a dozen "members of his family came in to say goodbye to him [and] the
doctors brought up the question of organ donation, which, as he would
later underscore in an official complaint, Swedish doctors are not
supposed to do until the patient has been diagnosed as brain dead.
Frtize heard every word, but had no way to get the doctors' or his
family's attention. It would take three days until he got a second
opinion, as another doctor returned from holiday. "She looked at my
scans and said 'This doesn't look too bad' and told the staff to give me
cortisone to bring down the swelling in my brain," Fritze recalled.
"But even so, my girlfriend and my sister had to fight with the night
nurse to give me cortisone, and this was just one day before they had
said they would make a final 'chance of survival' assessment." While he
then improved, it would take another three weeks before he could
communicate with his family. more...
* Case of brain activity after death: Researchers recorded significant brain activity a full ten minutes after doctors declared a patient dead. As reported
in ScienceAlert, doctors could detect no pulse, no heartbeat, no pupil
response to light, etc., yet sleep brain waves were detected. The moral
of the story is that doctors should have far more humility and not
declare people dead when they’re not. Don’t declare people brain dead
when their body is functioning. Brain dead means not dead. The medical
community as a whole has no humility before God. And that’s
dangerous for them and could be lethal for you. * Biomedical firm project exposes the truth: British outlets Mail Online and The Sun report
on a biomedical technology firm working on neuro-regeneration that will
do MRI's in Latin America on patients declared dead looking for the
best candidates to revive consciousness. Bob Enyart points out that
while doing an MRI on a two-pound pot roast would produce no results,
this clinical effort exposes the truth, again, that brain dead means not
dead. The moral of the story is that there is way more going on in the
minds of so-called brain-dead patients than the medical community
typically lets on.
Jahi McMath* Jahi's doctor on RSR: On Real Science Radio, the
founder of the NICU at the Children's Medical Center in St. Louis and
clinical professor of Pediatrics at the University of Toledo spoke with

who was starved to death over a three-week period at the recommendation

course, if you starved to death a horse, or a dog, you would go to jail. * The Undead Babies at Denver's Children's Hospital: Slate.com reported
on The Undead Babies at Colorado’s Children’s Hospital. Babies there
who could be revived often are not. These are the doctors and
"ethicists" who three years before this 2008 article had already
intentionally starved to death little Dylan. This medical center helps
so many families and saves so many kids, but that does not give
Children's Hospital the right to kill others. And their pro-abortion,
pro-euthanasia support for the death culture means that they are not to
be trusted when they decide not to revive an "Undead Baby". * 18 hours with no heartbeat... to full recovery: In April 2018, a 53-year-old Frenchman had been resuscitated 18 hours after his heart stopped while he had been walking outside in the cold. Though without a heartbeat for all that time,
being revived upon warming him, the patient is headed for a "total
recovery" believe doctors at Montpellier University Hospital, as
reported by the London Times. * Duty-to-Die Dick Lamm meets Bob: RSR co-host Bob
Enyart participated on a panel discussion at the University of Denver
which was moderated by former Colorado Governor Dick Lamm. Lamm, along
with a DU law professor, and a Hemlock Society board member all claimed
to only support euthanizing a patient if it were voluntary, for adults,
and only for terminally ill patients. Bob Enyart pointed out to Lamm
that they were all liars because not a one of them cared in the least or
disagreed with Children's Hospital's high-profile decision, extensively
reported (approvingly)
by the Denver Post, to intentionally starving to Dylan Walborn. This
was not voluntary. Four-year-old Dylan was not an adult. And the
handicapped boy was not terminally ill.

Condom Size Chart to Help You Find the Right Choice
When it comes to finding the perfect condom, size
matters. You don't want your condom to fall off or break because it's
the wrong size. Use this condom size chart to compare different condom
lengths and widths and get an idea of the size ranges available.
Why Condom Sizes Matter
Since
men are not built the same, neither are condoms. Finding the
right-sized condom will increase your comfort level while wearing it.This can lead to more pleasure and fewer condom excuses. When condoms fit properly, they are also most effective.
Even
though latex condoms are super stretchy, if a condom is too small, you
may still feel discomfort, and it has the possibility of breaking. The
body of most condoms is roomy enough to accommodate men of almost any
size. Condoms may feel too tight around the tip (where it is not as
elastic), especially if you are well-endowed.
Condom manufacturers have tried to solve this problem by making types of condoms where
the width of the main body is the same as standard condoms, but the
size of the condom tip is enlarged. By keeping the body of the condom
smaller and widening the reservoir tip, the condom it less likely to
slip off during sex. Of course, there are also bigger condom sizes that
not only add width but length as well.
Use that measurement as a guide, selecting condoms that have similar measurements.
To
find the right condom, you may have to try out several types of condoms
before finding the one that provides you with the best fit and the most
comfort. Buy individual condoms or the smallest pack available so you
won't waste money on those that don't work well.Most condom brands have their own definition of what is considered to
be standard and large condoms. In general, condoms are available in
snugger fit sizes, standard sizes, and large (XL or XXL) sizes.
How to Read the Condom Size Chart
This
condom size chart is broken down by first introducing the condom brand
and name, along with a brief description of that particular condom. The
condom width and length sizes are then included in both inches and
millimeters (and the condom head width is included where applicable).
Please note that these sizes may not be exact, but are very close
measurements.They range from snug to large sizes.
