I'm really sorry that happened to your sister, but I'm also glad that's working out. Really, despite all of the pessimism about end-of-life decisions, ECMO is good technology and your sister's case is good evidence of that. I think what gets mixed up in all of this conversation is that what may be a good idea when you're less than 60 may not be a good idea when you're over 90. As a side note, evidently, the French have really good medical technology and practice. They have been able to run ECMO in a Paris subway in order to save someone's life: https://www.jems.com/patient-care/how-physicians-perform-prehospital-ecmo-on-the-streets-of-paris/ https://www.jems.com/patient-care/how-physicians-perform-pre... I really do hope this kind of measure can be made more readily available. Till then, I'm still happy it works for people like your sister.
