My mother died from a traumatic brain injury. She fell down the basement stairs in the middle of the night and smacked her head on the floor. They tried to fix her up at the hospital but as is common with TBI her brain began to swell. They tried trepanation. It did not work. She went brain dead. I was half a world away at work. My father made me make the decision. The doctors pulled the plug on her 52nd birthday. That was 20 years ago this very year. I do wish they’d put a warning on these types of articles.
