147 – I don’t know if you did that on purpose or not but you just equated coma, vegetative state and brain dead which are three very different states. A person in a coma is NOT brain dead, and a person in a coma is not being maintained in a vegetative state.
That’s (loosely) like saying he can’t speak because he is mute so he is being medicated for his laryngitis until he gets his strength back.
