One potential oddity is that most patients who have the device have neither a pulse nor a conventional blood
pressure, and must carry medical documentation saying that the lack of a pulse does not mean they are dead.

"The patient is going to look like a walking zombie," Mazur said.







****************
I have zero sympathy for Cheney for any number of reason including the fact he ordered people tortured and in
some cases tortured to death in order to try to link Iraq to 9/11.

BTW any lurking freepers feel free to check out if I am telling the truth.

1. Divine Justice

I actually hope he has to live like this for a long time because it will be torture for him.

[Botany]

2. He has a pump inside him and a power cord going through his belly ...

... to the pump and that is hooked up to an external power source.

3. From the article....

"Everything is implanted in the chest except for the batteries, which are worn on a vest much like a hunting vest."

you really can't make this shit up!

[peekaloo]

9. He'll be gunning for the Energizer Bunny!

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[peekaloo]

4. Does this make him a hybrid?

[RagAss]

5. LOL !!!!

[Botany]

6. yes

7. Hey!

That looks like the PCV diagram for my Volvo P1800.

[lunatica]

8. Our first genuine undead person with no pulse but who comes with batteries

and gets plugged in at night. He must be trying to thwart the devil his due.

11. The Devil ..... she might not have long to wait

Cheney was in the wheel chair because of his back? :rofl:

[Dulcinea]

10. This proves that Cheney really is one of the undead.

I've always thought that. The man is nothing but walking death.

12. A quarter million dollars to extend his life an average of 7 months he should be glad for his

government healthcare and that there are no death panels...

[malaise]

15. Seven months

I'm betting a bookie somewhere on this planet is taking bets on the precise date. I say 9/11/10

[NotThisTime]

24. I wonder if Intrade will place bets

[Ganja Ninja]

13. IT'S ALIVE!! ..... sort of.

:shrug:

[Bitwit1234]

14. Most of us don't feel sympathy for him that's true.

I don't wish any person but Rush Limbaugh to leave this earth. Now that said think about this. How do you think he feels walling around day after day with that pump in his chest. Knowing any minute it might fail. That they won't get him to the hospital or doctor in time. Having to wear that vest with the batteries. I hope he thinks about it all the time and I hope that he gets paid back thinking about it, for all the misery he has caused this country and the world.

And I hope George W. Bush and the rest of the Bush family think about that although George the weaker says he sleeps well at night. The whole damn Bush family has caused chaos in this country. They all deserve to able NOT TO SLEEP AT NIGHT.

Just think old Prescott trying to overthrow the president. Raising money for Hitler and the Nazis. Uncle Bucky Bush owning a company that make defective armour and we all know what George the first, George the second and Jeb the unwonder have done. What is it about some families??? Does evil run in them.

19. I hope he lives the remainder of his life in terror.

[tabatha]

16. That must taking a shower impossible.

Or a bath.

[gratuitous]

17. "He's more machine than man . . ."

The Prince of Darkness will have to wait a little longer, and I'm thinking that at this point, Dick Cheney's soul really isn't even worth the effort.

[Doremus]

18. Coward to the end.

His life is a study in cowardice and so also his death.

Sounds like he may live long enough to regret making this decision. Actually, he probably already does.

Good.

[Botany]

20. The longer you use the type of machine that Dick is using the bigger ....

..... the risk of stroke, infection, and or the right ventricle just giving out.

I would think that he is a very poor candidate for a heart transplant too. His days are #ed.

[HCE SuiGeneris]

21. He who must not be named

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

22. AC/DC

Alternating Current/Dick Cheney

Anyonre called him that yet?

[Fire1]

23. He's always looked like some sorta demon, to me. n/t

[librechik]

25. Here's a picture of him leaving the hospital after the installation

He looks 10 years younger!

26. I figure the Borg had to start somewhere as a race.
