>>12188273Needing ECMO is the same as saying you should choose the color of your coffin.
The only practical use of ECMO is kids with congenital circulatory anomalies that are getting fucked bad. If you have pneumonia, you must fix the infection, not corculation.
The best way to keep someone alive is not fucking them up in the first place. Going to regular checkup, keeping a healthy diet and active life, doing jobs not relating to toxic materials, sun exposure or accidents. A person like this will age as long as his vital organs can, and any further effort is futile.
