Weather you believe in God or not he may have plans for the person.Maybe the person does get better.And you learn that after pulling the plug.
Then you would feel upset thta you killed that person.No one has the right to decide on weather the person should die or not.jm

well i'm not sure exactly when i answered. it was a quick answer. but the thing is, the person's body is probably suffering. usually, people who are brain dead then recovers have permanent brain damage. it'll be hard for them.
i'd probably willing to wait for at least 3 months. if it doesn't look like the body is actually suffering(heart murmurs, organ failures, the works.), i'd wait for it to wake up.
true, no one has the right, but sometimes there is just nothing else you could do.
Aye if the person cannot survive without a machine and can never be conscious of the world around them, then How can you call that life?
Without the machine they would die. LEt the person die, let nature take its course. When someone is braindead then we have helped the person as far as we can. Nature or God would take back the soul of that person, except by artificially keeping them alive, we rob them of that chance to move on.
We put down a pet when we cannot help them anymore and wish to end their suffering. We love them that much that we dont want them to suffer and leave this world in a slow agonising death.
Why can't everyone see that we offer the 'dignity' to our human loved ones? By keeping someone breathing and just breathing we are only fulfilling our own selfish needs to keep them with us. Even though it be a living corpse.
My grandmother was declared braindead after a massive stroke and she died 5 days after they disconnected the machine. She never woke up, never showed any indications of regaining brain activity. SO when she was ready, she left..... which happened to be just after when all her children had arrived and saw her.
She was on the machine for 2 weeks, and constantly deteriorated. So she was going downhill. Once my father and aunts were told this, and they saw the charts and everything, they readily agreed to it.
Im sure they can dig people up these days, if theyve only been buried a few days, plug a bunch of cords into them and get their heart pumping and stuff. We can do anything now, but we cant restart the brain and repair the tissue lost there.
So thats the same thing with keeping a body runnign on this junk.

No, they couldn't do that. maybe after a few hours of being dead. They do things to dead bodies that preserve it. (I forgot everything they do but they remove the blood and put in a preservative and then they put makeup on the body so that it restores the bodies color for presentation at a funeral.)
