It didn't matter how Melissa was improving and progressing. She was very stable by hospital notes and breathing 1:1 with the machine at the stage they decided to pull the plug followed by a morphine overdose, when she refused to die and great pressure was put on her parents by government authorities not wanting to do unpaid overtime, wanting it done already. Them saying her SEP's were absent and equivocal (questionable/ambiguous), her eyes were fixed and dilated, that she had Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI) and that she showed no neurological function, supported their plan to euthanase her. All of these excuses were untrue and proven to be incorrect.The SEP's result gave a perfectly normal reading for the left hemishpere of the brain. As can be seen in the hospital note, one eye was not fixed and dilated and was responding. That hospital note also shows Melissa's movements and neurological function, only a few hours before they pulled the plug. However, I believe she was again given paralytics and sedatives to make her much more unresponsive prior to her parents arrival at her bedside.
