Transplant Teen Loses Brain Activity
Family of botched surgery victim meets with doctors to discuss next step

Damn. Duke's handling of this has been a mess all the way through. Seeing headlines elsewhere about the lack of brain activity... but Duke's not prepared to make any judgments about whether she's brain dead... I don't know what you can do other than acknowledge that mistakes happen and this was a very, very, very big mistake that looks very, very, very bad for Duke. Forms were not double checked, elementary procedures for preventing this were ignored as unnecessary, and one little girl is paying the price for Duke's hubris, however well-intentioned it was.
