A wish has come true for a devout Jewish family of brain dead 4-year-old Aliza Schwab. “It’s unbelievable,” said Esther Schwab. “I have no words to describe it. It’s happiness. I’m speechless.”
Doctors say Schwab has been on life support at Jackson Memorial Hospital for six weeks since a near drowning in her family’s pool. Several doctors declared Schwab brain dead, and claim that by Florida law the girl had to be taken off life support. Schwab’s family refused to abide by that law and believed that for as long as her heart is beating, they still had hope.
Schwab will be on a ventilator, feeding tube and will undergo rigorous physical and occupational therapy.
Aliza’s Facebook prayer group has over 3,000 members.
