DEFINING THE QUALITY OF LIFE; IS IT BETTER TO BE DEAD OR ALIVE? By: Karissa Greses

Being put on life support when already brain dead is pointless because not only it is prolonging the healing process for the family members and friends of the deceased but also without the life support other vital organs would completely shut down. Introduction

Issue Which can cause confrontation... While some believe it is necessary to have brain function.... Others believe that regardless if on life support machines, as long as there is a beating heart, then that person is still alive and can fully recover… ;_ylc=X1MDOTYwNjI4NTcEX3IDMgRiY2sDZms0OGl2ZGJjbWk5diUyNmIlM0Q0JTI2ZCUzRHVKd3JaMWRwWUUyMUtpUTJsMC5icy5CeWpkOC0lMjZzJTNEODclMjZpJTNEM01BdU5OblhUalM4azN nX01BN1UEZnIDeWZwLXQtNDY0BGdwcmlkA2tkRnJ3MUNFVFJDNmkzUlRlYlNfb0EEbXRlc3RpZANudWxsBG5fc3VnZwMwBG9yaWdpbgNpbWFnZXMuc2VhcmNoLnlhaG9vLmNvbQRwb3MD MARwcXN0cgMEcHFzdHJsAwRxc3RybAMxOARxdWVyeQMgYnJhaW4gZGVhdGggYnJhaW4EdF9zdG1wAzE0NjE2MTM3NzUEdnRlc3RpZANCMTc5Mw-- ?gprid=kdFrw1CETRC6i3RTebS_oA&pvid=agCcaTIwNi76ERL7VstJPwN9NjQuNwAAAADEllW7&p=+brain+death+brain&fr=yfp-t-464&fr2=sb-top-images.search.yahoo.com&ei=UTF- 8&n=60&x=wrt

People often mistake brain death and comatose which is a big mistake Brain Death: little to no oxygen is carried to the brain which causes brain cells to die Comatose: a state of deep unconsciousness and unawareness that usually occurs after a sever brain injury. 1nBG9pZAMwMzFjMWQyZTI3YjJkMDljMDE5MjVmZTFjNTQwNTkyOQRncG9zAzI2BGl0A2Jpbmc- ?.origin=&back=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.search.yahoo.com%2Fyhs%2Fsearch%3Fp%3Dcomatose%26fr%3Dyhs-mozilla- 004%26fr2%3Dpiv-web%26hsimp%3Dyhs- 004%26hspart%3Dmozilla%26tab%3Dorganic%26ri%3D26&w=992&h=558&imgurl=i1.wp.com%2Fsparkonit.com%2Fwp- content%2Fuploads%2F2015%2F11%2FRecovery-From-Coma-May-Soon-Be-Predictable-Via-Brain-Scans-Picture-Comatose- Patient.jpg&rurl=http%3A%2F%2Fsparkonit.com%2F2015%2F11%2F17%2Frecovery-from-coma-predictable-via-brain- scan%2F&size=39.5KB&name=...+%3Cb%3Ecomatose%3C%2Fb%3E+patients+may+help+predict+who+will+regain+consciousness+a nd&p=comatose&oid=031c1d2e27b2d09c01925fe1c &fr2=piv-web&fr=yhs-mozilla- 004&tt=...+%3Cb%3Ecomatose%3C%2Fb%3E+patients+may+help+predict+who+will+regain+consciousness+and&b=0&ni=21&no=26 &ts=&tab=organic&sigr=12ea6anfv&sigb=143605upv&sigi=14aavodl4&sigt=12fj2lc28&sign=12fj2lc28&.crumb=tkivqr8toIg&fr=yhs- mozilla-004&fr2=piv-web&hsimp=yhs-004&hspart=mozilla

The process of giving an organ or a part of an organ for the purpose of transplantation into another person. In order for a person to become an organ donor, blood and oxygen must flow through the organs until the time of recovery to ensure viability One organ donor can save up to eight lives. The same donor can also save or improve the lives of up to 50 people by donating tissues and eyes. g-- ;_ylc=X1MDMTM1MTE5NTY5NARfcgMyBGJjawNmazQ4aXZkYmNtaTl2JTI2YiUzRDQlMjZkJTNEdUp3cloxZHBZRTIxS2lRMmwwLmJzLkJ5amQ4LSUyNn MlM0Q4NyUyNmklM0QzTUF1Tk5uWFRqUzhrM2dfTUE3VQRmcgN5aHMtbW96aWxsYS0wMDQEZ3ByaWQDU1ZSQ1lkX2NUdFNHUGg2cWpwdmZT QQRtdGVzdGlkA251bGwEbl9zdWdnAzEwBG9yaWdpbgNpbWFnZXMuc2VhcmNoLnlhaG9vLmNvbQRwb3MDMARwcXN0cgMEcHFzdHJsAwRx c3RybAMxNARxdWVyeQNvcmdhbiBkb25hdGlvbgR0X3N0bXADMTQ2MTYwODQyNgR2dGVzdGlkA251bGw- ?gprid=SVRCYd_cTtSGPh6qjpvfSA&pvid=S6uEuTY5LjH6ERL7VstJPw2FNjQuNwAAAABlg.h7&p=organ+donation&fr=yhs-mozilla-004&fr2=sb-top- images.search.yahoo.com&ei=UTF-8&n=60&x=wrt&hsimp=yhs-004&hspart=mozilla
