And that was 25 years ago. Medical science advanced a lot since then. There have been several recent cases in which fetus was gestated from 15 weeks to delivery. And yet our laws say brain dead is legally dead and apparently these fetuses have no protection whatsoever if hospital just wants to disconnect the mother. Hospital doesn't even need permission from family to do it.
Yes - and 25 years ago, could the first responders have brought Marlise "back to life?" Such as it was.
