In case you haven't heard there is a 13 year old girl that is now brain dead after going through a simple tonsil removal surgery. My question is once the insurance runs out should we the taxpayers be paying to keep a "dead" (while technically alive) person alive?

Damn, wonder what happened? Anyway if she is considered brain-dead...and isn't showing any signs of brain activity after multiple rounds of testing...

Yeah i'd pull the pliug, it's not natural to keep someone on life support that is going to die anyway. It is fucking shitty that the hospital staff didn't do anything to help, my god. That flat out disgusts me. That family is probably scared for life.

There better be compensation to family from hospital. Brain death from tonsillectomy?

Maybe they'll allow the family to slit the throats of the nurse/doctor assigned to that room.
That'd be solid compensation.

They knew the risk of surgery. Shit happens.

I'm sure the parents signed some sort of waiver so them winning a lawsuit is not likely imo.

Well the amount of lawsuits on docs for little shit is rediculous. There's always going to be a risk. And they don't even know what the exact cause is.
I'm sure if they sue they'll get paid out tho

It's not uncommon at all for surgeons and docs to get sued and lose. You have to pay some rediculous amounts for insurance to cover your lawsuits.
