<< That's just conjecture. It is the opinion of the doctors involved in this case, so it is not conjecture.
<< Anyone think this guy would wake up? Depends who you asked. His family may have had complete faith of a recovery. But that is not the point. Advances are made in medical science on an almost daily basis, so there was every chance of some kind of treatment being discovered in the future. Just because a treatment is not available today, does not mean it will not be available tomorrow. There is also a great deal more that could be done for patients such as this, but they are blocked by your own President, who vehemently opposes research that uses stem cells. So before you go shouting at everyone else as being hypocritical, you should maybe look closer to home. The biggest enemy to those patients with cerebral injuries is President Bush.
