    For a 14 year old to have the presence of mind, while no doubt in shock himself, is amazing. He should be so proud for saving his brother 💖

    I have so much respect for the woman who agreed to let her husband pass. As a Buddhist we believe wholeheartedly in the sanctity of life but also in the nature of suffering, it was the better thing to do to allow him to die peacefully, due to the brain damage than force him to live on in pain, and then to go on to allow for his organs to support other lives, it can’t be an easy decision to make but she did what was best for him, so much respect for her

    Knowing that his organs would be saving others lives probably helped her a lot. I think it would be so much easier to let someone go if you knew good was coming of it. I’m glad she has that comfort

    I'm an atheist, but if I wasn't I'd be a Buddhist. Probably because from what I know about it (which admittedly is not much) it seems like a sensible ideology rather than a brainwashing religion filled with sky fairies and abused children.

    I can relate with her. My mom was struggling and was on life support with her body slowly shutting down. I got her doctor to verify that he had a copy of her living will and I made the decision to remove the life support. When she finally gave her last breath she made a beautiful smile and I new she was back home.

    I empathize with the last woman more than I would like to admit. Earlier this year my dad had a massive brain hemorrhage. It was very sudden and when we got him to the hospital they took a CT and told us we needed to be prepared to lose him. A neurosurgeon spoke with us and said that the only thing that could be done was inserting a catheter to drain the excess fluid, but even then there would be less than a 5% chance he would ever wake up and if he did, he would be severely disabled for the rest of his life. We chose to transfer him to hospice and waited with him for 3 days until he finally left us. He was able to be a tissue donor, and I really hope that it's making someone's life better. I'd do anything to have him back, but I know he'd rest easier if he knew he was still helping people. It takes so much out of you to let someone go like that. Even if you know it's for the best and it's what they'd want. Loving enough to let go is one of the most painful things I've ever gone through and my heart goes out to everyone facing that choice.

    It's crazy how severely injured someone can get in a simple bike accident. I know an absolute horror story. I had an old work friend and on one of her first days, her mother almost died in a freak bike accident on a holiday overseas. Her mother, while wearing a helmet, just fell off her bike while going slowly. She hit her head and suffered such a severe traumatic brain injury she was given a 10% chance of survival. My friend had to rush overseas because she was told her mother could die at any moment. Thank goodness her mother survived but she was then in a medically induced coma for weeks, with no idea if she would ever wake up or how severe her disabilities could be. When her mother did wake up she had a long and arduous recovery as she had to relearn everything. From what I've heard, her mother is doing great, which is honestly a miracle with how close to dying she came.

    I wish the US took this approach to emergency medicine, which is why more British & EU emergency patients survive... assess and stabilize the patient as much as possible before moving them, where most US medics focus on getting the patient to the hospital as fast as possible. I do suspect that EU & British medics are generally more skilled (actual doctors) and are able to do more for patients in the field, where US medics are more akin to nurses. Can anyone confirm this?

    As an American I really do think our medicine/health practices are some of the best(Cost aside) but that being said we as a country really dont put the focus on field life saving techniques as other countries. I wish we had something similar as with Helicopter ER here and yes I know we have medivacs/lifeflights and what not but the overall amount of them are miniscule to other countries. On top of that we rarely ever use them unless for last resort measures which could really be the difference between saving a life and not

    You’re thinking that way because Britain is small and you’re watching life flight. Life flight is the same in the US with doctors, nurses, and critical care medics on board. The difference is much of the US is rural because it is so massive so much of the area is covered with mostly emts or even emrs. When in rural america stabilizing someone scene is less important when you have a 40 minute drive to the hospital. Even the oxygen given to patients is different, it is humidified, due to the long commutes. Places like western PA, NYC, Denver, and CA have great EMS services on par or better than the EU.

    @@mastercooper8109 I was thinking more along the lines of standard urban EMS. I had lived in France for a few years, and the ambulances for life threatening medical emergencies, which is most of them, are staffed with actual emergency doctors and are better stocked, focused on providing physician care right away, so you tend to see an ambulance just sitting outside for a while, where the US is almost all EMT based, which is more like Frances Basic life support ambulances ran through the Fire depts for common breaks, sprains, and transport. I've heard a lot of Europe is like this. I know some US ambulance services are physician staffed, and not bashing the capabilities of EMT's at all, but have had a life-threatening injury in the US, and was quite let down by just how limited they were, but maybe that was just a rare one time personal experience that went bad. I get the reasons in rural America, but was thinking about cities, like Paris vs Chicago, where the distance to a hospital is about the same. This is how the French EMS service is described om Wikipedia: The EMS (Emergency Medical Service) system in France is a centrally based, two-tiered, physician-manned system. The first level is composed of BLS (Basic Life Support) fire department ambulances (called "VSAB") based at fire stations. The second level is composed of ALS (Advanced Life Support) physician staffed-ambulances.
