With the heartbreaking news of that poor 13 year old girl who became brain dead after having her tonsils taken out I assumed anybody who was brain dad had no chance of coming back. However in the comment section people have posted stories of people who have. Are these mostly cases of hospitals making a poor assessment of brain activity or is there a legit chance brain activity can continue after ceasing?
