Same with her lips, there's so much gloss on them it's reflecting the light. I imagine they must use tons of Vaseline to keep her eyes and lips from drying out since she can't blink and her mouth is always open.<br /><br />Those two facts make it impossible that she is in a vegetative state or minimally conscious. If she were in a PVS she'd have sleep/wake cycles and minimally conscious people can also open their eyes. Jahi can do neither. <br /><br />Once discovery takes place in the state and federal actions the family will have to allow independent medical experts to examine her. I'm confident that Nailah will once again reject their findings so nothing will change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1809371631407381115.post-87947527576809137162016-10-25T19:07:19.116+03:002016-10-25T19:07:19.116+03:00@Samantha, I am glad your sister is better and tha...@Samantha, I am glad your sister is better and that there had been an ICU bed for her. <br /><br />On Jahi's new picture, which is new since they put a picture of baby Israel next to her, her right eye looks like something on it.

I can only speculate about the McMath family's motivations for keeping Jahi's body warm, but there are definitely people who fervently believe that as long as the heart is beating and the lungs and inflating and deflating, even though that's being done with a machine, then there is life. I've seen posts referring to the cells of the body continuing to metabolize, therefore the person is "alive." I am appalled at the money it is takes to keep bodies warm and blood circulating, when that money (and ICU beds) could be used to help people who CAN be helped. This is indeed futile care - with that much brain damage there will never be any recovery. SMH<br /><br />My oldest sister was in ICY for a couple of days last week - if she hadn't been found by my other sister when she was, and transported and placed in ICU, she would have died. Her blood pressure was bottoming out, and it took a couple of days to stabilize her pressure enough to move her to a step down unit. She is home now and recovering. But what if there hadn't been an ICU bed available?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10705955138750434562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1809371631407381115.post-3903093928965392572016-10-25T13:08:20.304+03:002016-10-25T13:08:20.304+03:00I agree.

To be capable of responding she would have to be at the very least in a minimally conscious state. That she has never opened her eyes in almost 3 years makes that highly unlikely. It's also suspect that there isn't even a picture alleged to be "new".<br /><br />Professor Pope also marked the occasion with a new post:<br /><br />http://medicalfutility.blogspot.com/#!/2016/10/jahi-mcmath-happy-birthday-16.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1809371631407381115.post-75883123482911218232016-10-24T23:07:34.917+03:002016-10-24T23:07:34.917+03:00There isn't a new picture.

So if she isn't awake yet how can she move on command? For me to believe anything I would have to see her with her eyes open moving her fingers when mom tells her to.

Showing the world that our lovely angel is ALIVE and proving all the doubters wrong, still showering Jahi with blessings. Turning a sad situation caused by those who gave her less than three months to survive, into a learning experience of what HOPE, FAITH and LOVE can do. Yes, Jahi will keep fighting with her mum until she claims her victory of full recovery and her life back.<br /><br />Still believing that a "full recovery" is just a matter of time.
