I mean when someone got into an accident and is surviving through the life support machine. they may never recover. Do you think we should just give up and let go?

It should depend on the doctor's prognosis and what the injured person would have wanted. I would not want someone to be kept alive on life support if that was against their wishes but, then again, I wouldn't want to give up on someone too soon.

Always get a second opinion if after a couple of weeks there is no change, although it would be hard I would not be selfish to keep a person I loved around for my sake. They should be left to go on the journey that awaits them. If that machine was not there they would have passed without us not having a choice. I believe in my hearts of hearts someone was given the ability to make the machine for loved ones to be able to find closure and say thier goodbyes. Just my point of view. Everyone have a wonderful day!
