A brain can be retrained in some cases, give her a chance let her be resucitated by whatever means available why should the doctors play god, the parents have said they will say when they believe no more treatment is to be given, if they are not given the final decision they will always feel they have failed her and that will be hard to live with
Obviously as a pregnant woman I'm bound to feel more strongly about this than perhaps someone childless would but I feel that they should resusitate her whatever the circumstances. You don't create the technology to save a baby born early or with disabilities just to throw their life away later on. The doctors might think they are doing the right thing to let her go if her condition gets worse but I can completely understand that her parents want to see her treated as well as she can be and how could they possibly accept any decision not to do so when they know she can be saved. I think they should listen to her parents as they are the ones who are with her the most and know her the best, and after all she is their daughter and a person, not just a medical curiousity.
