She has life in her eyes still and you can see she wants to communicate with them so badly.
I agree she reminds me of someone who’s in a coma, able to hear the outside world but can’t see it or move.
Bless her. Poor darling must feel so trapped in a broken body.
I'd rather be let go...keeping me like this isn't loving me....besides she had an allergy...biologically people like that are less likely to survive as seen here its sad an unfortunate and truth
What happened to Lena paul💀
@@Givingawayfreehugs locked in syndrome. scary af
Poor dear, she is trapped in her own body. An old friend of mine was allergic to seafood and the staff accidentally gabe him calamari instead of a sliced chicken dish and fell out om the floor and had a full blown seizure. His face started swelling right before my eyes. He survived but refuses to eat out anymore. Period, not even ice cream. I understand his choice fully.
Is he allergic to all seafood (including all types of fish) or just squid/molluscs?
This is one of the saddest things ever, and always think about it when I think of allergies.
Honestly , if I was that allergic I would just bring my own food. I remember a case a few years ago where a girl went to a camp. She was allergic to nuts as well. She landed up dead from eating a product that had nuts on it. Again , if I knew I was that allergic I would just bring my own food. It's better safe then sorry. But I do blame the restaurant 100% in this videos case. They should be held accountable and sued. The chef clearly didn't know what he/she was doing
Gianna Miranda and Charli Hill putted peanit butter inside..
It's really sad, all because they lied they must have known there were nuts in the food 😢
@Pasta Chocolate I have to admit yes I would carry my own food wherever I went.
Thank you for treating her the way she should be treated. She absolutely understands and you can tell she appreciated the way she was treated by all of you! I can't imagine ending up in this spot because of someone else's choice.
I agree. They didn't patronise her at all. Very well conducted interview
She looked like a statue
Well she IS paralysed, has brain damage, is blind and has suffered several seizures which has done more damage but she can understand them and respond with sounds that either mean yes or no so Amy-May is still in there just can't move
I feel so sad for her 😢
You can tell Ruth is doing all she can to try and include Amy in this
This Beautiful Woman Didnt Deserve To Go Through This
We Love You Amy
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Amy
I don't
Her and Prichard Colon
As someone whose dad has a severe nut allergy, this is both heartbreaking and absolutely terrifying😔
I’m the mom of 3 kids with life threatening food allergies. This is our daily fear. Food allergies truly are a living nightmare. I wish more people understood how serious they are instead of continually mocking them in comedy and movies. We are getting treatment for two of our kids who are old enough for it right now. It’s life changing but not a cure. We need a cure. 😢
Amy’s not living, she’s just existing. My heart goes out to her & anyone else impacted.
She is neither dead nor alive. This is absolutely horrible. I feel so sorry for her.
Bro I would rather just die than be left alive like this.
The brain looks perfectly working, it’s for sure an incredible suffering!
She is alive
@@brandonross8200yikes
She's alive. She may not be thriving the best she could but she is alivel let's not be insensitive here
I can’t even begin to imagine how difficult it is for people whose allergies are so severe they suffer anaphylactic shock almost instantly.
Oh yeah... this is why I am pretty OK with my cat allergy and think it's better to be allergic to animals than to food!
This is what terrifies me about going into any restaurant/ice cream shop/candy store/etc. People think we’re bullshitting it or being too over dramatic even though THIS is what can happen.
If I had such a severe peanut allergy, I’d never, ever eat out.
Exactly. I wouldn’t take that chance !
Or a severe allergy of any type of food for that matter
I think she felt secure due to the two epipens she had which ended up not being enough. Such a shame.
Such a weird thing to comment on a video like this. Did you miss the part where they said even opening nuts on the plane could do this? Should she also not travel? Hope you learn what empathy is & may you never experience something like this
@@Kainicramedaseriously! Such an insensitive comment.
It's not just the food ingredients themselves, it's the cross contamination in preparation as well. I ordered a menu item that should have been completely safe for me & I made it known that I am allergic to pine nuts, commonly found in pesto, and asked them to keep my food separate from where they were using pesto. I was assured they would take care. I took one or two bites of my food and began to feel a reaction. After using my Epipen, and getting some Benidryl on board, I quickly checked with the manager and he believed that my chicken must have been grilled in the same spot where an order of pesto chicken had just been cooked. I then went off to the hospital to get treatment.
Most restaurants mean well and want to do the right thing, but one oversight can ruin your day, or in this young woman's case, have a profound effect on her life.
I had a reaction on a cruise ship I should have told them I am allergic to pine nuts but didn't think it would be in the croutons. Apparently at one restaurant on board they coat pesto in the croutons before baking.
That's right, I'm sensitive to gluten. I ordered gluten free pasta and it came mixed in with bits of wheat pasta, they probably used the same colander. Mine is not a deadly allergy though, I just get a stomachache, headache and stuffy nose.
I had a reaction eating green beans something in the spices that made my throat swell up msg or something they put
Through lack of communication and checking the foods this poor lady has suffered immensely, she is beautiful and no one deserves this... I am allergic to nuts, but not as severe as Amy, but I do flare up quite a bit...I hope she has the best life that she can, her parents are amazing, and do a lot for her.. beautiful lady Amy
What a story. To be a producer of the show and have this happen. Even unable to speak and she’s using her situation to educate people. I commend them for doing this interview. I feel badly for her co workers and her family. I truly hope Amy can get stronger and more verbal. She seems like such a wonderful soul. I’m sure before the incident she was a joy to be around, not that she isn’t anymore, I’m just envisioning her without the brains death symptoms. Poor thing. I don’t have allergies but if there are people that have severe allergies to nuts then no we shouldn’t have them on planes.
People have severe allergies to ANYTHING so should people not eat on the plane at all? Ppl forget about milk allergies, mustard, shellfish, eggs, sesame and fish other very commom and often severe. People have also have a reaction to them by breathing in partials but people seem to focus on peanuts for some reason, yes airlines should be careful and ask everyone If they have any allergies and if they do to keep them out of their way. Its been proven by scientific research that banning any food that people are allergic to does not help
How does she communicate? It doesn't look like she's moving her arms much.
If she can't communicate effectively at all...that's a terrifying prospect.
@@kaylalloyd869 Yeah, the reality is that establishments should just respect the requests of people when it comes to their allergies.
@bigbluebuttonman1137 oh absolutely I agree, but I don't think other people shouldn't eat cos of something some else can't, absolutely keep it away from them, clean everything properly and double check ingredients before giving it to them
I would choose death instead of this...This is so heartbreaking...I hope that she recovered at least a bit...This is so devastating...
Me too. I would never want to live a day like this. I've spent time in a wheelchair after various lower body surgeries and still had 75% use of my body from the knee up. Still didn't want to live. This woman has 0% human function. A fate much worse than death.
@@crispycruiser4654 I had to use a wheel chair for a month. And what if she wants to die
No life for her like this, poor soul ❤
@@crispycruiser4654 I was wheelchair-bound as a young teen due to rheumatoid arthritis, and didn't want to die at all. Stop being mentally weak.
@@muzikveoyun37 Since we're giving each other advice, here's one for you, so listen up and listen good. Stop trying to gatekeep other people's pain and endurance. And stop making it a competition, humblebragging about how gritty you are while putting other people down. I don't care about your arthritis with that attitude. You stay in your lane, and you learn some empathy. That's your homework for today. Because you should know better if you were really were or are a chronic pain patient. In the mean time, sit in your room and feel shame for a while for what you just said, and come back with an apology.
Man sometimes fate is horrendous feel so bad for her.
This the crazy world we live in...one day youre perfectly healthy...next day youre paralyzed n cant speak...completely unpredictable n crazy like that
Honestly if I had a severe nut allergy I feel I would never rly eat out especially abroad I would prob just buy fruit or something it would jus the too terrifying to risk, human error is always so high:
I was about to type the same thing.
I get that but it’s sad that if people with allergies are doing this then they can never go out to eat with friends or try restaurants abroad. So sad.
@@TheDestineyy What's sadder is the condition she is in. No meal is worth it. Unfortunately, some of these restaurants think people don't really have allergies so they are like, "yeah, yeah, yeah" thinking that the customer is just being dramatic. You should be able to trust a restaurant but as we can see, you absolutely can't.
Nuts are put in hair products. It’s not just about eating it!
She's still a beautiful soul 😢❤
Yes she is. Sweet Amy ❤
This is so heartbreaking
I would've sued that chef/establishment. She has permanent damage, she's gonna die that way. Just horrible.
I hope they did.
They probably did and probably put the joint out of business. But it's not going to bring their daughter back.
No amount of money will remedy the unimaginable consequences she has suffered.
They tried - they said in the video, but the business didn’t have insurance so they couldn’t, or something like that
Ultimately someone just made a mistake, a human error, and conceivably that mistake could well have happened further up the supply chain, rather than happening in the restaurant itself.
I have been hospitalized for peanut allergy several times it is terrifying and takes a toll on your body. I am sorry and just want to hug her , allergies are unfair and dangerous nowadays! It will take a toll on social life too, I NEVER go to resturaunts or bars. Let's keep the word out and make it known.
Yes. Thank you for not laying blame. Ty for displaying true love and devotion. I learned. I didn't know such allergies.
I absolutely would not want to live a day like this. This video inspired me to have my doctor write me a DNR and tell my family if I'm ever on a feeding tube, to say their goodbyes and remove it immediately. I can't imagine the idea that Amy is still in there, conscious, aware of who she is and what's happened to her, but can't communicate ever again (nor consent to keep on living like this for another 60 years.) There's a lot of horrible things that can happen to a person, I thought some of the quadrapelegic vids I've seen were heartbreaking but many of those people could talk, feed themselves, some could even lift weights. This is a fate much worse than death. My father died of a heart attack in 2014. He was driving, and he made it to the hospital. They spent over 20 minutes trying to revive him. In a way, I am glad they couldn't, as this scenario would've been significantly more painful for the family and might've driven a rift between the four people that would have a say in whether his life support was removed. So sad for this girl.
I'm not sure if this is an appropriate video to comment this on, she has family members and she can understand what you're saying. This comment comes off as tone-deaf and rude, which I don't think was your intention
@@sugmanots I don’t care if you think it’s appropriate. The family opened up the conversation and forfeited their right to deference of commentary by putting their daughters story all over CZcams. It’s absolutely worthy of questioning whether living like this is worth it, because this can happen to any one of us where one second we can speak for ourselves and the next we can’t
@crispycruiser4654 I thought the same. I wouldn't want to live like this. But I also understand the family. You don't want to say goodbye, so you still want the person to be around whatever happened. I love my family but my heart would break if I would see them everyday like that. I understand your decision because it's your life and you should decide if you get unplugged. I know that both decisions seem egoistic but not wanting to live that way and letting someone live that might suffer for the rest of their lives is a difference
I’m right there with you dude. I’ve read several stories of people ending up like this or similar. Frightens me to tell you the truth.
@@crispycruiser4654totally agreee. It’s insane we keep people alive . At least in older times, if something like this happened, you wouldn’t last for years like this because they didn’t have the tech
Horrific ! If I was allergic I don’t think I’d EVER risk a meal out the house ! Poor poor girl I’m so sorry x
Severe anaphylaxis shock! I'm sorry this beautiful woman had this terrible experience.
My heart aches for her, and for her family.😢😢❤❤
Plz pray for my brother he in same condition
The Amy May Trust is still active on social media. Amy and her family are very strong people. ❤️
It's very difficult to see someone you love, respect and admire live with brain damage. Especially when you remember them at their full capacity.
i did not know about the particles in the the air of a packet of nuts. i actully love eating nuts but from now on i wont eat or open them when im in a closed space with other people like a plane or a bus ro something. i would not want someone allergic reaction or possible death even on my consious. ill just them at home from on. :)
After hearing this I am surprised that you are allowed to bring your own nut on a plane. I've done it may times and bought them at the little store next to my gate but I never will again.
This is why you need to be careful when eating nuts on planes as the circulation can cause a reaction to someone with a serious nut allergy
Jesus. Imagine dying and then waking up in a broken body, no longer able to speak, or work, or do the things that made you happy.
That's how it always feels when I have a seizure..... but, I eventually recover.
This hits to close to home. I’m severly allergic to dairy. I accidentally mistaken milk for soy. Both the Benadryl and the epi pen. I had to fend for my self I begged and begged for someone to call 911. I got to the point where every time I breathed I was snoring.
The fact that she's still somewhat conscious is a miracle. God bless her
What a horrible thing to say. God obviously didn’t bless her
@@electrodynamicorb6548 are u serious???
@@Shalayah2010 are you?
Please tell me this is a joke?
Wow you guys are both sick in the frickin head, seriously?
You got more screws loose than this young lady here
This is heart breaking
I’m left with the disturbing question of whether Amy really consented to being trotted in front of the camera for this piece. She is obviously severely limited in being able to express herself with words. It’s really poignant to see what looks like distress while they are talking about her, right in front of her.
Oh please, stop white knighting. You have absolutely no idea how this woman feels or what she is thinking. It's her own mother and friends, and they are taking a lot of care with this interview. Her smiling at them is more clear than whatever you are trying to think for her. They know her, and you do not.
@@jtomyhope575 "White knighting"? Really? You bring up stupid red pill terms in a video like this? The OP is right. She could not consent to this. If she can understand everything that's going on there's a chance it would've made her uncomfortable, and she wouldn't be able to verbalize it. If they wanted the exposure they could've popped in from Zoom from their couch and Amy could've been comfortable at home instead of getting dragged into the studio to be gawked at like a zoo animal.
@@jtomyhope575 you sound like a red pill idiot
@@crispycruiser4654 her parents are the ones caring for her and have given everything to do so. They are clearly looking after for her best interests. You know nothing about her except what you just learned by watching this. And to refer to her as a zoo animal is honestly just disgusting on your part.
@@jtomyhope575 THEY trotted her out there to be GAWKED at like a zoo animal. Are you stupid or did you strawman my argument on purpose? This is a fate much worse than death and we don't know how much pain this girl is in traveling in planes and cramped cars for a TV segment where she can't even speak. It's cruel to keep anyone alive in this situation, but if you're going to be so selfish, let her rest in the comfort of her own home. And SHAME on you for knowingly lying and implying that I PERSONALLY called her a "zoo animal." How dare you be so disingenuous?
People forget that criss contamination is a thing. You have to clean all of the surfaces throughly befire cooking anything like that.
I hope my family would never let me live like this, it’s really sick
This poor woman. This is going to sound incredibly harsh, but she would've been better off if she wouldn't have survived. This is painful to watch.
She knew she had a severe allergy. Why take that chance and eat out like that ? No way
@@cjhoward409 people with allergies still have a right to enjoy life. They can't just stay confined to their house their hole lives and establishments have a responsibility to make sure the food they serve is safe and ingredients are fully disclosed.
As someone that's is severely allergic to nuts, this teriffies me. God bless her!!💗
Absolutely crazy....... My daughter 4 years old also has alergy to nuts and got a epipen..... But this i an absolutely eye opener to how serious it is......
What a tragedy, I couldn't live like this. I know people with similar severe allergies and it would just ruin your life
This is so sad. She is in my prayers I do hope that restaurant got into terrible trouble. God bless you all.
No they didn't. Whereas in the UK, it's compulsory for business owners to have Public Liability Insurance, in Hungary it's optional. So nothing could be claimed
She has got to be in some sort of pain or discomfort as she is never relaxed. If someone has been dead that long and starved of oxygen, its quite a choice to resuscitate a person who will have a massive life change. Not everyone can receive care to improve their situation.
Bless her heart.
I personally, would not want to live this way.
It seems as though she has parents who really love her and will take care of her.
A very eye opening video. Thank you
My heart breaks for sweet Amy! She was living her totally normal life, out on a trip with her friends, then BAM! It’s all taken from her. I’m so thankful for how they included her in the interview and thanked her for her story. She’s lovely and clearly so bright.
I feel for her your basically a living statue i wouldnt want to live like that poor woman.
What a horrible thing to experience, not only herself but what her parents had to go through. Bless her. ❤
Kinda a misleading title. Wasn't directly her allergy that caused the brain damage. Anyone can get brain damage if being 'dead' for several minutes, nut allergy or not.
It was her allergy that caused the brain damage. If she hadn't been allergic to nuts, she wouldn't have had a severe reaction that caused her death for 6 minutes.
Horrible thing to happen. God please bless this young woman.
Having a nut allergy is like a death sentence from birth. Unless you are preparing your food personally 100% of the time, it's really just a matter of time.
I tbh k that would be me I would jus the fruitarian
200 people in the usa die from nut allergies a year, most people live to be 75, 3 million people in the usa have nut allergies, 200 x 75 = 15000, 15000 ÷ 3,000,000 = 0,5 that means the chances of an average person with nut allergies dyeing form it is 0,5 percent which is a lot but its FAR from a guaranteed death sentence btw my source is google
How would you know at birth that someone has a nut allergy? Wouldnt they have to eat nuts first b4 they know they have an allergy?
@@swaggydaddy666 people know they have them from young for sure
To be fair most people can bring themselves back with an epi pen it’s only so bad for her because she died for 30 mins or so. Had the epi pens worked wouldn’t have had brain damage. There are some studies where they give people tiny extracts of peanuts and build the dose that have been helping lately
This has me in tears.
I have severe food allergies, nuts being one of them. I hate going to a restaurant and telling the server that I have these allergies, but for the most part, they're sympathetic and accommodating.
However, there are a LOT of idiots out there that think food allergies are fake. At least 3 times I've been at restaurants where I have told the server I'm severely allergic to onions and garlic (this just happened about 4 years ago). Yet, my burger or steak showed up with onions on it. "Well, you can just scrape them off". No, Tiffany, I can't. Just the smell of them sets me off.
Every day is a minefield, I've had to leave my office several times because someone heated up fish in the microwave or on our monthly company luncheon someone was cutting up 50 onions in the kitchen.
On the bright side, I've come up with recipes for a lot of dishes that traditionally use onions and garlic, and you would never know they weren't in there. Anybody that is interested, I'll give them to you!
Anaphylactic shock is terrifying. I wouldn't wish it on anyone, but maybe some of those dinguses who poo poo food allergies need a good 5 minutes of it. Thank goodness I was in my doctor's office when I went into anaphylactic shock from my first allergy shot. Took 2 nurses to drag my big frame into one of the exam rooms where the doctor gave me a shot of adrenaline and pulled me back. I was blacking out and couldn't get a breath in. It was like I had a hot wet towel over my face suffocating me.
Honestly, I quite enjoyed the boost from the adrenaline. Got my airways open and gave me a really nice buzz. LOL
Asafoetida is a good substitute for onions and garlic in cooking. Maybe you know about that already. Maybe you'd be allergic to it as well though. It stinks bad and may set you off. Not sure if you should risk it or not.
@@PEGGLORE I just looked at that, it's in the carrot family, so it's probably just fine.
I've found that diced celery and carrots caramelized in a little balsamic vinegar boosts flavor well, not unlike onion and garlic would. I came up with a turkey chili recipe and use that as the base, it's really savory.
People claim to be allergic to food in restaurants and then complain when not served the allergen. This makes servers and other food staff complacent in food safety...
Example: I worked at McDonald's and people would say "no tomato, I'm allergic" then b *tch they didn't get ketchup on their burger. 🤦♀️
Thanks for posting this. I never really believed peanut and other allergies could be this severe, but now I do.
Bless this lady ❤
This is so sad and scary for those of us affected and with children affected! 😢❤
she is not living 6 minutes she was gone for i hate to say this but they should have let her go. very sad i hope i never have to make decisons like this for loved ones😢
i dont see how she is going to live a meaningful life. it might be torture living like this
Maybe if they are able to rebuild her body and mental functions. Buy thst has a tiny chance of great success.
Seeing her smile out of reaction made my heart smile, as well as that sweet woman holding onto her 🥺❤️ Amy is an angel 😇
Bless you, Amy
🥺🥺❤️🙏🏽God bless this woman.
This is heartbreaking. I cant imagine
I know a famous singer who’s son had a major accident and had really bad brain damage and he is like this and his dad has major depression and spends his time doing concerts and stuff to make money to make sure his son stays alive it’s really sad I think he should let him go peacefully since he’s had a few episodes and brings him back :( I know my bff had to let her disabled son go after he had a major attack he lived that way for 34 years :( 😢
this is absolutely heart breakin
Makes me so 😔
That's heart breaking
This life really isn't fair.
I can eat nuts and think nothing of it. Or any other food I want. Worst I have to worry about is getting an upset stomach. I can't imagine having to fear for my life coz of some food. Such seemingly harmless thing.
What a slap in the face that the restaurant don’t have public liability insurance and that her parents have had to pay for her treatment out of their own pocket
❤😢 bless her. Sending love
I have a peanut allergy and this is scary
I feel for you. If I were you I wouldn't trust any restaurant. It's not worth the risk especially if the allergy is severe
No words.. dreadfully sad.
May God bless you dear girl 💕💐💐💕
I have a shellfish allergy and this is so heartbreaking 😢
My sister's best friend developed an allergy to yellow food coloring after she had her three children. A piece of hard candy, then butter, and later, Minute Maid orange juice killed her. The allergy put her in an iron lung. Its nothing to mess with. Any chef worth their reputation would know the ingredients of what they are serving.
If the pan had peanut oil in it prior and they didn't wash it properly, even if they didn't use peanut oil, then it could cause the allergic reaction.
❤😊 god. Bless. Love. Prayers. From. America
Omg Im so sorry Amy. You are beautiful inside and out. I hope the parents sue the restaurant
I read that even now after 10 years, Amy and her family has not gotten justice for this incident. That’s horrible. That restaurant and everyone involved should be held responsible!
God bless you Amy❤
Poor lady 😢
One of my favourite treats is Reece’s, I never eat them in public or on transport because I’d never want to risk putting someone else in harm. Even around my nephew, he had eaten stuff which said it may contain nuts and is completely fine with all that.. but it took me ages to be like “ok he is safe with peanuts” cause I just didn’t want to take the risk
Is she able to communicate enough to express if she wants to live this way?
Doesn't matter now. They brought her back to life when she was gone for 30 minutes. They should have just left her RIP after so much time went by. I hope if something like this happens to me, they don't bring me back to live like that.
@@mossman381 ugh. Me too.
@@mossman381 You need to put down on paperwork than that you do not want to be resuscitated. Because they will unless you put it down
@@miac2382 I remember my mom having it written DNR but she was in the hospital.
As long as she’s in the hospital they will resuscitate at least once or twice but after that they would follow written orders by the patient.
I personally think that they should have let this poor lady die she shouldn't live and suffer like this it's inhumane
Honestly as a worker in the food industry when people come come to us about a food allergy i don’t turn them away but i do tell them that i can’t guarantee that the food has not been in contact with something that maybe harmful to them i rather tell them the truth
People with food allergies should make their own foods just to be safe.
Oh my, what a horrific thing to happen to this young lady.
Eating honey roast nuts whilst watching this 😳
I wouldn't want to live like this. This isn't living at all. Really sad for this lady.
We need to look after each other. I absolutely agree with discontinuing every single allergen in planes, trains etc.
I agree with double decker planes. And if you are caught with wheat or peanuts or whatever on the allergen level, you are an idiot and pay a 15k fine. And restaurants in the gate must be shown a ticket and if it says allergen level, they don’t serve them the allergen. Well, I can dream…going on a plane next year.
Learned something from this today ! That just consuming nuts next to someone so severely allergic can even in a small chance trigger an allergic reaction ! I’ll be sure to be mindful about that !
this is so sad wth one of my cousins is allergic to nuts this is scary
Aww man poor lady I had no idea nut allergies can do this to you😥
Eamon and Ruth are so much more authentic than Holly and Philip. Never see them doing these stories. So sad.
Exactly you are spot on they are an example to all those who lack empathy, realness, and genuineness. They already have and will always have my respect.
modified nut material to be reintroduced into the blood stream to get those cells that needed the protein to unstick due to absorption during anaphylactic shock
Very sad story, this young ladies life was changed so suddenly
My heartbreaks for this beautiful woman i hope that restaurants and other food places will be more careful when some one who has a nut or tree nut allergy to say yes we do have foods that do have nuts and are cooked in nut oils and then offer the person a safer alternative
I lost a friend in high school to a nut allergy. It was devastating. I too have food allergies, but I do not have a nut allergy. It’s very scary when these things happen and it’s frustrating that so many people are so self centered that they’d choose a few nuts over a human life.
That’s nuts!
Ruth was lovely in this, super empathetic and professional.
Yeah but the other girl was just groaning and drooling. Very rude

I pray she recover her brain damage one day 🙏
Stay strong
@@ELIAS-tg8orOhhhhh
She can't there is no cure for a veg state
You can't really recover from brain damage because once the damage is done that's it. The damaged brain cells do not grow back. There is no recovery from this. This is the way that she's going to be for the rest of her life. It's a horrible situation and I would definitely not choose this for myself.

@@marciwhitman3513to be honest there is no such thing as impossible if one is determined to take action
Brain cells can grow through a cultivation. But Its whether scientists want to take risk to do more extreme experiments or put financial needs into it .
I’d rather be dead, than to “live” like that.
I think this too. But its hard for the people around her to let her go. But in a way her story is helping people
@@Itsliz1984 It's not helping anyone. Either you're allergic to nuts or you're not and it's on you to prepare your own food. It's not on this poor girl to stay alive and suffer forever to "help" others who get to gawk at her like a zoo animal
No one cares about your opinion. Disabled lives are worth living. She’s still a human with cognition and technology can allow her communicate. It’s horrible what happened to her but stop devaluing peoples lives.
You'd be surprised how precious life becomes once you lose half of it. Thanks to "Special books by Special people", ive seen many interviews of people who live similar to Amy who were once normal and every one of them loves being alive. Including those who tried to unalive themselves.
@@starjen222 i agree it is devaluing their life but i don't think his comment was meant to devalue anyone's life. He was saying he can't imagine living like that and he wouldn't want to live like that.
I think it's devastating 😔
I know this is harsh, but I personally would not want to live like that. This state is not better than death. They've kept the body alive but the mind is trapped. One of downsides of modern medicine, keeping people 'alive' no matter what that looks like.
You have no idea what she’s thinking.
Please educate yourself. I recommend starting with looking up Stephen Hawking.
Does anyone know how she is doing now? Any improvement?
Incredible that a simple Nut can have such a devastating effect.. personally If I had a serious allergy I would only eat food i cooked myself...I hope at some point she recovers
