Is it possible to remove the Beta Amyloid from the brain after it has accumulated, or does it corrode the nearby tissue instantly, causing permanent, irreversible damage? Would it be possible to 'drain' the substance from the brain after it has entered it in scheduled treatments?

Besides all the machines and whatever, can you tell when a person is officially dead? Also, isn't it kind of eerie to be in a room with someone you know is going to die within the next few hours?

My last question is just something I'm really curious about because I'm picturing you holding the person's hand while they die. Do you ever come into physical contact with the people you sit vigil for?
