Unbelievable Survivals: 70 Patients Defied All Odds Against Grim Medical Diagnoses
The patient was discharged to rehab a few days after that conversation, and I don’t know what happened to them after that. That case really is one of those cases that qualifies as a “miracle” to me. I don’t believe in a higher power but that was a very significant and completely unexpected recovery. Everybody involved in the care of that patient was sure that the patient was going to die, and we were all proven wrong. It’s a nice reminder that there are outliers.
Not a doctor (or a patient) but my SO and his mom were in an accident a few years back and was t boned by a drunk kid speeding home from prom. His mom broke her pelvis (and more but i cant remember what else she broke exactly) and she is now curruntly running marathons and my SO on the other hand broke the top vertebra in his neck, crawled out of the wreck, somehow didnt die from breaking his neck and on top of that he isnt even paralyzed and apparently he was doing push ups with the neck brace on
Alright the SO is here to fix my story because i did it wrong, here we go
First kid wasnt drunk, just stupid. He was going to prom and tboned us at 55 mph. My mom, in the drivers seat, had broken her pelvis, various ribs, blood filled her lungs, and has metal in her arm abd pelvis. My sister lacerated her spleen and my ex broke her pelvis. I broke a rib and the c4 bone in my neck. My mom was hospitalised for 5 months and is running and living, not as well as she used to but she doesnt quit for anything. As for me I was hospitalized for 3 days and wore a neck brace for two months. Later I would break my leg going down a half pipe on a ripstick but thats a story for another day.
