If they say you’re brain dead in a coma, is there any awareness at all?

Can you pull through when declared brain dead, but in a coma? On life support? Family had right to pull plug but was it possible his brain activity could have come back?

No awareness, in a way you're kind of like a Democrat.

I believe brain dead can be defined by no electrical activity in the brain over a certain amount of time.

The longer the brain goes without a signal the less likely there will be one.

I will not say it's impossible, but not probable to come back from brain death.

A family here in Michigan, just had to go through this. A 17 year old suffered a serious head injury, and went through many (20) hospitals that all rejected him, because of his total lack of brain function, he was on Life Support at University of Michigan. The parents pushed hard, but the court had the final say

My uncle went into a coma after a seizure . They said he was gonna be a vegetable for life if he came out of it. Miraculously he woke up a week later and had to do some physical therapy but he is fine now. Truly a miracle .

Awareness of the outside world? Yes but not in a concious manner. In a coma one is in a perpetual dream state and folks around you in real life friends family medical staff may appear as characters in your dream world.

Had a person who had a massive stroke on the job and went into a coma for 1 year of their life, they said they heard the doctor tell the staff in the room that, "she was a throw away".
She was on a vent in a coma for 1 whole year and yet when she told the doctor what she heard, he confirmed he did say that.
He actually did come to that opinion in the first stages of treating them.

They lived, while they also lost functioning of certain parts of the brain, mainly the abilty to remember, creating a situation where they could not be home alone.
They would turn on a stove and forget they did, go outside and walk around and forget how to get back to where they left.

They could not see while they could still hear in the start of that coma. They could not move or talk, they could not interact in any way until they came up out of it.
The most precious things are the simple things in life, always present in the simplest of minds.

Sure. Maybe your brain is aware as you rot in your coffin for 10,000 years. Sweet dreams.

I think water can symbolize the spirit.

In the dream, he started as a dead body. He was put in a bath tub, I think with running water over him(?) then he miraculously awoke, as if from the dead. Then we hugged like what seemed like eternity, then we were by this swimming pool filled with the most beautiful living water..we jumped in...

I think maybe his soul was lost before this dream? (He had died a day prior) And his spirit awoke and could move now...Or the dream was a sign that his spirit communicated to me..through the water?...I always had a strong spiritual connection with this person and didn’t expect to dream of him at all when I fell asleep. But I’m so happy about it.

And it was a very vivid dream, like I had with orher visitation dreams..where elements seemed “alive”

I wonder if it registered that they had “brain activity”. And thats why they let her live on life support that long.

I had a friend who contacted blastomycosis and fell into a coma for 18 months. The drs all said he'd die. He woke up after 18 months, severely brain damaged. He stayed awake for about a week, then went under again for another year, then died.

In my husbands case the part of the brain that controlled normal function like breathing was too damaged to function and no electrical activity in the brain. I let his mother make the final decision to take him off life support and donate his organs.

What is sad is when drastic measures are take to preserve the life only to be awake but severely brain damaged unable to communicate or move and left bed ridden in constant pain. No one wants to live like that.

I would like to know this as well. My father had a brain aneurysm and was declared brain dead. He had in his will that he did not want to be kept on life support in type of situation. Family had to take him off life support. Even if he would have pulled through the quality of life would not have been good due to brain damage. I would like to think by the time he was taken off life support that he was already in a better place.

from the article I posted the link to...


Brain death’ is a medical fiction invented to harvest organs from living people: expert
In the far-reaching interview, Nguyen says that an Ad Hoc Harvard Committee in 1968 redefined the term “brain death” to mean someone in an irreversible coma. Nguyen says this was done in order to serve the interests of the organ transplantation industry and to avoid public outcry that would have viewed transplant surgeons as organ-stealing killers.

Research it, there has been a lot of people that have woken up after being declared brain-dead. Sometimes right before they're about to harvest organgs from them ALIVE. Doctor's are evil sellouts, but so is most of our system; they aren't entirely to blame but damn there's no way this civilization is 'modern'. We've barely made it out of the dark ages and people think we have it made... nope, still a long ways to go.

 Quoting: StrongLion




Listen to this man about how the definition of br. dead was invented, to get the organs from a live body...


Also look up other stuff/interview of Dr Paul Byrne on this
I have listened to the YT-interview several times the last 2-3 yrs. Take the time.
