Interesting. I suppose you forgot to put "OT" (off topic) on it.

When my mother-in-law had her second to last heart attack, the people at the hospital were all over us to donate her organs.
(Turns out the intern in the ER was coming up to assist in an organ retrieval.--she needed a 'volunteer')
Mom had been given a drug to allow them to insert a tube down her throat, and then failed all the reflex tests--including breathing on her own.
--because she was PARALYZED from the drug they gave her before the tubing.
No one would sign their dirty papers, and she enjoyed nearly another 4 years of life.

Monkey--I had to read a ways to see the apnea mention--

but now I see you have deleted the link.
Now I really look foolish!
