    Oh my god, it would be an absolute failure of the system if she got a cornia transplant.

    I've obviously never been in the position of the parents, but if i was, I would hope i'd be brave enough and have enough mercy to not keep a suffering child alive.

      Nah, she won't get one. But it the whole thing is soul crushing in a way no person should have to shoulder and in most civilized medical systems there are structural supports to make sure people can get through it

      Me and basically everyone I have worked with the medical field have internalized about doing cold calculations on quality adjusted years of life We don't normally talk about it with laypeople. A conversation about when I pulled the plug on X relative and why not lite one you know? However we are all very much on the side of pulling the plug when there is no reasonable expectation of a continued acceptable quality of life
