Doctors declare Erica Garner brain dead
The daughter of police chokehold victim Eric Garner is near death but still showing her fighting spirit after a massive heart attack nearly a week ago, family members told the Daily News Thursday.
Relatives and friends rushed to Woodhull Hospital to visit Erica Garner, who became an outspoken critic of police brutality after her father’s death in 2013.
The 27-year-old firebrand remained in grave condition on life support Thursday, her mother Esaw Snipes said.
“She’s not gone, she’s brain dead,” Garner’s heartbroken mother explained. “Physically she is still with us.”
Snipes said her family was clinging to “a glimpse of hope.”
“She's still here with us. She just needs some time to heal, that's it.
“We just ask that y'all give her time to heal,” she said. “Keep praying for her."
Other visitors claimed Garner was showing a minimal amount of brain activity in recent scans.
“We are just praying for a miracle,” said the Rev. Al Sharpton. “(Erica) was a warrior. She was a real activist, she was always involved. From three years ago, she never stopped. She was always at rallies, she was always calling me — ‘Reverend, we'll do this. Reverend, we'll do that. We'll do it your way, then I'm gonna do it different than you.’
“It's just sad to see her laying there and not the active Erica that we know,” Sharpton said of his hospital visit.
