Mimi,
Its Dave again. I don't think there is much risk in dying from ECT. I guess the only thing would be the anesthesia, which is very low in risk. My stepmother is an anethestist where they do ECT. I'll ask her if anyone has ever died from ECT where she works. Also, when I read about the brain damage thing, I found that when they did MRIs before and after treatments they found no differences.
Bye,
Dave
