Would it change anything if I told you that her Down's Syndrome had no correlation with her death, and that even neurotypical cisgendered people sometimes die after an organ transplant that should've worked?
End result, even if the organ had gone to someone else, we still could've ended up with two dead bodies instead of one.
But would it change ANYTHING at all for you to admit that she did get her transplant and therefore was not precluded as you've been saying? Even more damning, how about how they performed two transplants on her and not one? This proves everything I've been saying, that disabled people are NOT being precluded, they're just on a lower triage scale with a limited number of organs. A de facto exclusion, but not being excluded as you've attempted to portray.
As to her dying, I knew you'd look the story up and make that point. So, now that we know you are qualified to make medical judgments, why won't you answer my question on page 5?
And Shane, a limited number of beds is quite a stretch. Even including and accepting such, that does not mean that some people in your situation would live and die, as must be the case with this topic. And chill out, I've been civil with you in this debate, and if not civil, certainly MORE civil. So, yeah.
ETA: and as to the claim that I'm an "honest asshole" stop. I admit, this whole fucking process is inhumane, but the ADA has their procedure and it's their best attempt to make lemonade out of lemons. I don't want anyone to die, but in situations like this, people will die and there is nothing you, the doctors, or anyone can do about it. The worst thing I think we can do is to give these organs to people who don't have as strong a chance of survival, because then we have two dead instead of one. Sorry if situations demand such callousness.
