A Kentucky man, who was declared brain-dead, woke up during organ harvesting procedures at a hospital. His sister, who was present during the events, claims he was thrashing around and crying in pain while undergoing the procedure. Although the hospital staff initially dismissed the movements as reflexes, they ultimately stopped the organ harvesting. Despite the incident, the man is still alive but suffers from difficulty walking, remembering, and talking. The events have sparked debate about brain death determination and the ethics of organ donation, as many commenters express concern about the potential for misdiagnosis and the pressure to proceed with organ harvesting even when there are doubts.
