In the legal battle over Michael Todd’s life, the University of Kansas Medical Center disputes the accusation that doctors misdiagnosed the fourteen year-old and prematurely declared him brain-dead.
Cecelia Cole, Todd's mother obtained a temporary restraining order blocking the KU Medical Center from taking her son off life support, accusing the hospital of misdiagnosing her son. She said her son is not brain-dead. Cole said Todd is moving his feet, crying and is trying to open one of his eyes. Relatives also said Todd was responsive to touch immediately following the accident.
The hospital claims it followed protocol when it obtained the diagnosis of brain death. I wonder if this procedure involved interviews and observations by those who know the child best? Do doctors dispute his mother's claims? I also wonder where the family got the idea that the hospital was fishing for organ donations.

What, beyond prayer, can we do to help this wonderful
Mom!!
Keep fighting!!
Hugs to your dear son from many who see his infinite worth
in God's sight.
