Comment on I think we might be leaving the "boring" part of this dystopia

I’ve been watching too many medical dramas and think that this would make a neat episode if done correctly. Like if a woman had agreed to be a surrogate for her gay brother and made it explicitly clear that she wanted it to occur even if she was in an accident and brain dead. There’s a lot of moral issues and it would be interesting to see them play out in a fantasy universe.
I can’t imagine a situation where this would be OK in real life, to be clear.

This was an episode of Grey’s Anatomy. A pregnant woman is in a car crash and is brain dead, and her parents want to keep her on life support until the baby is born. I think in the end, they decided to let them both go.

Oh neat, ironically Grey’s is what I’ve been binging - I must not be to that episode yet. I do think there’s a difference, though, between keeping a pregnant woman’s body alive to allow her baby to be born vs. impregnating a brain dead woman.
