Unbelievable Survivals: 70 Patients Defied All Odds Against Grim Medical Diagnoses

Unbelievable Survivals: 70 Patients Defied All Odds Against Grim Medical Diagnoses

For reference, diabetics are supposed to manage their blood levels and keep them no higher than 180, and even that’s kind of pushing at the limit.

By all accounts, this girl should have been in a diabetic coma. At best. Yet SOMEHOW she was conscious, walking, talking, and arguing with us every step of the way. Despite the fact that her pee was almost pure sugar (and resembled crystallized honey), it was a 20-minute argument to get her to stop drinking her diet mountain dew (she firmly believed that the fact that it was diet meant it was fine). Her blood was syrup: how we got enough to run blood tests was a minor miracle in itself. She kept complaining and asking for snacks and junk and just… she was not a pleasant person at all.

Obviously, she gets to go up to the ICU. Twenty minutes after we get her up and transferred she walks out of the hospital. Why? She was mad that they only would give her water to drink. Priorities, I guess?

Haven’t seen her since, but I still wonder about her from time to time…

Witnessed a sedan with a trailer flip four times at ~75mph on a highway into a ditch right in front of me. A 12yo wasn’t wearing a seatbelt and was thrown from the vehicle through an open window. He had a superficial laceration of his leg, and was in shock, but otherwise apparently unharmed. We did a quick trauma evaluation of the family, everyone seemed okay, and applied pressure to the kid’s bleeding leg until EMS got there. When we were running to the wrecked car as the dust was settling, I was sure we were just going to see disembodied pieces of that kid everywhere, but he was really, really lucky. Wear seatbelts, folks. Everyone who remained buckled in the car didn’t even have a scratch.

Oooh this is a good one for me. My roommate is a heavy drinker. He had to have some tests done a few months ago and it shows his liver function and how well it’s doing. This kid drinks himself to oblivion weekly, eats like s**t, doesn’t exercise, weighs like 350 lbs, and smokes. I’m thinking his liver, and most of his other organs, looks like a mummy’s shriveled up s*****m.

His liver function test comes back perfectly clean. He’s perfectly healthy on paper, other than being overweight. He showed me cause I didn’t believe him, blew my g*****n mind.
