I'm sorry to say that it is not a myth. This happened to my cousin. He was shot in the head and in a coma. The doctors asked his wife if he had a donor card. When she said yes they told her there was no hope, that he would not be the same, he would never wake up yada, yada. After she signed some form they were ready to wheel him away or something he WOKE UP and asked for his wife. He lived a week or so after that but she thanks God that she was able to have him for those few days. She always says that she almost killed her husband. I tell her God wasn't ready for him yet and let him stay a little while longer.
I also saw a show (Dateline, 20/20 one of those) that had people sharing similar experiences. Not all doctors and hospitals are like this but it's scary to know that some are out there.

I am a donor, but this story now has me a little nervous. I can't give blood (I don't like needles either); I'm anemic.
