Paralyzed 'Organ Donor' Barely Escapes Doctor's Knife
Patient overhears terrifying bedside chat
WND
A man who was hospitalized in Sweden after suffering a stroke has filed a complaint against the doctors who treated him because they said they believed he was going to die and started discussing plans to transplant his organs.
Jimi Fritze heard every word when doctors discussed harvesting his organs
In his hospital room. While he could hear them.
The horrific circumstances of the case involving Jimi Fritze, 43, have been reported by The Local.
But they bring to mind several cases that have developed in the United States, too, in disputes over how much an incapacitated person knows, and their chances for recovery.
Probably best known is the story of Terri Schiavo, about whom WND wrote hundreds of stories between the time of her mysterious incapacitation at age 26 and her death, at age 41, after hospital officials withheld food and water.
Her fight for life prompted the creation of Terri Schiavo Life & Hope Network, which in the years since has taken on the fight for several other patients who were found to be incapacitated, yet alive.
Bobby Schindler, Terri Schiavo’s brother, said about a recent case, “People need to realize that ethics boards, hospital boards have been making decisions [about treatments] we’re receiving or not receiving. It will be worse with government-controlled health care. They’re taking medical decisions out of the family’s hands and putting it into the hands of bean counters.”
His comments came in the case of teenager Jahi McMath, who was undergoing a tonsillectomy at a California hospital when things went horribly wrong. Doctors soon declared her brain-dead and, but for the fight by her parents, already would have shut off a ventilator to which she is attached.
