A friend of mine was in a bad car wreck 2 months ago and broke both his legs, crushed his sternum, lacerated his liver, ruptured his spleen and he had a collapsed lung. He was in a coma for 2 weeks and then came out of it and was making a great recovery, he still needed a trachea tube to breath. He was transferred to a nursing home for round the clock care and last night somebody at the nursing home forgot to aspirate the trachea tube and he choked to death. I still can't believe he survived all his injuries to die because some moron didn't do their job!!! [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Re: Lost a friend
i'm sorry jack.
my pal bernie was doing 110 in his bmw and flipped the car
horrendously. he broke everybone in his body but lived to tell the tale, until 3 days later. he died from an allergic reaction to the pain medicine they gave him. i was fukkin' pissed. you survive something as sick as that and then he dies from something that was supposed to help.
my condolences riff.Not helping the situation since 1965!

Re: Lost a friend
My condolences, Jack. I know what you're going through.
My family suffered a double loss last week of two very close relatives. Both blood and friendship-wise, I mean. A car crash that should have been survivable. I continue to choke up when thinking about the horrific way in which such great people passed, and having to bear their caskets. I probably always will. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
Stay strong.

Re: Lost a friend
Sorry for your loss bro.Scott
Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong.
