I remember watching this years ago , the stories were good but when they showed the people injured it was like watching a really bad b rated movie , if you want to make a show like this make it look real .
You know, I am sure Shelly found ways to strengthen the muscles in her arms like maybe sports such as golf, softball or maybe basketball. Also, maybe she took up a musical instrument such as the guitar or piano since they would also work to strengthen her arm muscles.
She's lucky she didn't cut her face or neck when she fell. After seeing this, I wouldn't try to hang anything over a mirror or window. A few months ago I fell off a makeshift platform while I was making a video, and I hit my garage floor on my side. It took a month for the pain in my back to stop. Thank goodness there wasn't any glass or anything sharp for me to fall on.
i had the same thing happen to me when i was about 10 but not near as bad...was standing on a stepstool hanging up a pic and my finger was cut pretty good. thats why now that im a mom i dont hang pics above windows...GOD BLESS HER!
It's amazing that she not only survived but that she didn't lose her arms-& they became functional again! Man when I heard that it was cut to the bone I thought it very likely she would lose an arm! Holy cow!
Actually, you don't just go from shock to death. There's a phase between compensated shock and death called decompensated shock. It's just that by the time you reach it, you're most likely not going to live through it.
Dr. Hackey needs to explain that to one of the doctors where I work. He wouldn't let us do anything, b/c he thought we were nitwits who couldn't be trusted to know what to do.
@1RadicalOne They do a reverse graft; well, I don't know if they did then, but they have since the early 2000's wen I was an OR Technician. Veins are under a lower pressure than arteries, b/c veins have valves. The valves helped the blood continue to flow toward the heart instead of backtracking. That's why they reverse the vein; so it will allow the blood to flow away from instead of toward the heart.
@1RadicalOne They reverse the vein when they put it in so that blood flows away from the heart, as it does in arteries. They have to reverse it, b/c veins carry blood TO the heart.
What they did is called a reverse vein graft.
I used to be an OR Technician. I saw a few vein graft operations.
pshh whatever, shes already running around rough housing in 3 weeks.when i cut my arm to the bone and had 5 1/2 hours of surgery,i wasnt able to move my arm away from my chest for several months and even 11 years later still cant use my left hand correctly.
I usually don't care if I get minuses, b/c I can't stop them from coming, but I wonder why I got 4 of them when I explained what my sister's medical emergency did to me.
I'm glad my sister's emergency wasn't featured on Rescue 911. I would never be able to tolerate all the ridiculous fuckin' judgments people would undoubtedly lavish on it.
I imagined what happened to the girl in episode 406 happened to me. I was 24 years old and after I fell through the window which was made of plate glass. it was on the sliding door. I was screaming and crying like a baby. My guts were sticking out and I shouted "I'M DYING, MOTHER I'M DYING!"
"One minute everything's okay, the next just sheer terror."
That's exactly how it was when my sister had her emergency.
I didn't know it when I was 13, but she was in severe tachycardia. That's what the heart monitor revealed when I sneaked halfway upstairs and peered over the landing. The EMTs wouldn't let me go upstairs but I HAD to see if she was still alive. I didn't stay there long, b/c they asked me to come back down.
I'm glad I didn't know then she was on the verge of falling into v-fib.
I've read many of your comments and know you are a wonderful person and professional. My heart goes out to you and I appreciate the work you do. I have many medical conditions resulting in lots of surgery and trips to the ER. But I still enjoy life and I am grateful to EMT's, doctors, nurses, etc. and my family and friends who all make it better for me. Please know I do care. People in the medical field have a special place in my heart. Take Care, Sara
I know the 911 Operator meant well when she told the grandmother the girl would be okay, but you shouldn't promise a patient's family she's going to be all right until you're sure it's true.
I made this mistake when I was an EMT-D, and the patient's son took me to heart. When she died, he was not only grief-stricken but felt deeply betrayed by me.
Let them know you're doing everything you can to help their loved one, but don't give them false hope.
A Paramedic IS an EMT (EMT-P). . .and all EMTs are important. I'm not like one of the first Paramedics I worked with, who told me that an EMT-Basic was useless in any true emergency. I was brand-new then so I said nothing, but I swore I'd NEVER treat another human being like that when I became a Paramedic.
Just curious, I've seen many of your comments, and you seem like a nice, mature professional. But in most of your comments you say you're an EMT, and then in another video you were saying that you're a police officer and talking about when it's okay to use deadly force. I'm confused, lol! Which are you?
If someone cuts themselves that bad, you use more than a towel. You also need to raise their legs as far as they can go. And continuously talk to the patient so she doesn't go to sleep. If you can't keep her legs raised yourself, put something under them so they stay elevated.
I don't know why the 911 instructions for control of bleeding didn't mention raising the legs.
It's important to do so, b/c it gives the patient extra blood as she waits for help to arrive.
A comment on the people that say she , 'Didn't die', Because 'God is good'. I just have one question about it, If God is so " GOOD" , Why did she fall through the window in the first place?
"Amen" to that, brother (or sister)! God doesn't give a (censored) about us! If only God would've intervened on 9-11, and many countless other times...but that wasn't the case was it? If that's blasphemy on my part, tough shit!
And about the inflicting of torture & torment...well, if God "loves" us so much, why would he create a hell to burn up those that don't "love" (read:fear) him? Couldn't he just let all go to heaven, or simply not exist after death? Guess that's not "logical" is it?
Thanks...as to a forum allowing more (if not unlimited) space, well I'm sure there are some forums that will let you spill your guts out lol but I can't point you to one dealing with religion, etc.-but you're free to shoot me a PM if you wish.
IMHO, it seems that Lucifer's the one who created the need for Hell. God responded to the Devil's plot to overthrow him (God) by bringing Hell into existence, but Satan made the choice that led to his exile from Heaven.
My daughter's dad died on September 11 in the World Trade Center.
That situation also occurred b/c people made a terrible choice.
I won't say I understand why it had to happen-I still have no idea-but I refuse to blame God for a choice made by murderous people.
She likely severed her brachial artery. That's why windows and sliding glass doors should be safety glass, as it doesn't shatter as much. Glass shards are like razorblades.
im so fuckin happy she survived. the same thing happened to my twin brother when he was in the 8th grade. he was leaning on the window and he arm went through it. the doctor said that if it was 3cm deeper that he would have died. thank the lord he survived and im gonna say again that im happy she survived too. God is good
I don't mean to be mean but the granddaughter should not have been dumb enough to use a wobbly old stool, I am grateful that she is okay now, but she should have used her head. The good news is that she is probably going to be a lot more careful and closer to her family. I watch these episodes so that I can avoid the perils these people face and I find most of these situations can be avoided through use of common sense.
Yeah, I know what you mean...especially the dumbass 12yo boy who managed to light an M-80 firework in his house (equivalent to 1/4 stick of dynamite)...and nearly blew his hand off. That clip is also on YT, from Rescue 911. Titled, "911 Firecracker Exposion."
A friend of ours had the same thing happen to him, we were running through the house playing hide and go seek, it was a huge house, 6,000sq, a basement and 3 floors. And he happened to run through the kitchen through a sitting area towards the sun room, which had a glass door. Both arms were severely cut. I had never seen so much blood. Thank goodness he is ok now.
my mothers friend had a nephew who was running back and forth through his houss and the back door was made of glass and when he was running the wind blew the door shut and he ran straigt through the door and collapsed on the lawn and he died before the ambulance arrived
wow, didnt know this was so close to me, i lived like 5 miles away from the hospital at the time, crazy how stuff happens so close to you and you dont know it....wonder how she is now
This is the same thing that happened to my neighbors neiece. She was playing around with her cousin in the house and her cousin slammed the door and the glass shattered everywhere. The veins were hanging from her arms and blood was squirting everywhere. It happened the same year when this episode came out in 1991.
Maybe if Shelly had asked her grandmother or grandfather to help keep the stool in balance so she could put the picture on the wall, nothing would have happened.
Exitabc. I'm an EMT myself... And you dunno how frustrating it is to get information to sit there and listen to people scream at you... when you dunno where to dispatch the ambulance to... or anything...
That's why there needs to be an enhanced 911 system EVERYWHERE...that way, your address already shows up at the 911 computer, and voila they know exactly where to send help to. People oftentimes tend to get emo (I know I would), when a sudden emergency situation happens...and they're afraid of the thing getting worse, etc.-before help arrives (hopefully).
they should be screened before hired. often, i notice that they can't process the info quickly. i used to have nightmares that i called 911 and they blew me off or were very slow- then it HAPPENED!!!!! the operator just couldn't remember anything i had said! i yelled at him to concentrate and LISTEN! oh my!
this is just like the one when the two boys are home alone and they are having a pillow fight on the bed and one boy accidently pushes the other boy through the window and the boy has a huge gash in his arm this is just like that one but there is only one person and there was no pillow fight(lol)
Ugh, the HORROR! I saw the original airing of this in '91, and has haunted me ever since. Crap happens so fast and easily. 911 people on the phone, in general are partially deaf or something, it seems. They ask stupid questions too often, and make you repeat and repeat! This poor kid. E-YUK!
I know what you mean, when I was 16 my dad had a massive heart attack. He was getting ready in the bathroom and I heard a thud. The lady on 911 expected me to pick him up which was impossible. The hospital was less than a block and a half away and yet it took them 12 minutes for them to get to our house. He didn't make it. Its been nearly 10 years and I still have nightmares about it.
im sooo sorry, you know it wasnt your fault right?! i would be SO traumatized... when you are still a child with developing muscle mass you shouldnt be expected to lift a full size man, by yourself! even a fully grown man wouldve had to drag him, possibly injuring him more, it was wrong of the operator to put you in that position! she shouldve instructed you to do cpr, thats what they are there for! if its anyone's fault, it was the operator not following procedure...im so sorry for your loss
they should be screened before hired. often, i notice that they can't process the info quickly. i used to have nightmares that i called 911 and they blew me off or were very slow- then it HAPPENED!!!!! the operator just couldn't remember anything i had said! i yelled at him to concentrate and LISTEN! oh my!
I sort of remember what you are describing..I think the kids are playing tag. And one of the boys accidently pushes one of the other boys though a glass door, and his arms are covered in blood..it's pretty nasty.
I'm an EMT and I've got to say the worst thing about calls like this is cleaning out your unit after the call. We're talking mop & bucket time, sometimes you have to take the mop to the celling too...Nasty!
They were playing in the yard. Mom or someone would go somewhere and they stayed home with their oldest brother. It would be really cool if you could show me or upload the video I've not found it.

That 911 Operator is lucky she didn't get one of those hostile families when she told them their granddaughter's going to be all right.
Even if the patien wasn't going to die, looking at all the blood is enough to send most family members into a panic.
I speak from both professional and personal experience.
Everything was clearly NOT all right when my sister coughed up a sink full of blood.
I think my own experience gives me an advantage in helping families through emergencies.

I've watched about 60 of these 911 videos and, besides Dr. Hackey, only one other Doctor has mentioned the importance of the Paramedics.
It may be hard to believe, but not all doctors act as if they believe we add a great deal to their job.
I'm glad at least 2 of them noted our benefit to them in the 911 segments.
In short, I like Dr. Hackey and that other doctor.

I'm sick of watching people purposely hurt others. If they insist on doing the crime, they should have to look at its result.

A friend of ours had the same thing happen to him, we were running through the house playing hide and go seek, it was a huge house, 6,000sq, a basement and 3 floors. And he happened to run through the kitchen through a sitting area towards the sun room, which had a glass door. Both arms were severely cut. I had never seen so much blood. Thank goodness he is ok now.

I was wondering if you had the segment from this episode where a man crashes his snowmobile in a tree. If you have that one, could you put it up?

This is the same thing that happened to my neighbors neiece. She was playing around with her cousin in the house and her cousin slammed the door and the glass shattered everywhere. The veins were hanging from her arms and blood was squirting everywhere. It happened the same year when this episode came out in 1991.

Maybe if Shelly had asked her grandmother or grandfather to help keep the stool in balance so she could put the picture on the wall, nothing would have happened.

Exitabc. I'm an EMT myself... And you dunno how frustrating it is to get information to sit there and listen to people scream at you... when you dunno where to dispatch the ambulance to... or anything...

That's why there needs to be an enhanced 911 system EVERYWHERE...that way, your address already shows up at the 911 computer, and voila they know exactly where to send help to. People oftentimes tend to get emo (I know I would), when a sudden emergency situation happens...and they're afraid of the thing getting worse, etc.-before help arrives (hopefully).

they should be screened before hired. often, i notice that they can't process the info quickly. i used to have nightmares that i called 911 and they blew me off or were very slow- then it HAPPENED!!!!! the operator just couldn't remember anything i had said! i yelled at him to concentrate and LISTEN! oh my!

this is just like the one when the two boys are home alone and they are having a pillow fight on the bed and one boy accidently pushes the other boy through the window and the boy has a huge gash in his arm this is just like that one but there is only one person and there was no pillow fight(lol)

Actualy I don't think they were fighting with pillows-I think they were jumping on the bed!

Ugh, the HORROR! I saw the original airing of this in '91, and has haunted me ever since. Crap happens so fast and easily. 911 people on the phone, in general are partially deaf or something, it seems. They ask stupid questions too often, and make you repeat and repeat! This poor kid. E-YUK!

I know what you mean, when I was 16 my dad had a massive heart attack. He was getting ready in the bathroom and I heard a thud. The lady on 911 expected me to pick him up which was impossible. The hospital was less than a block and a half away and yet it took them 12 minutes for them to get to our house. He didn't make it. Its been nearly 10 years and I still have nightmares about it.

SonnyMV85 3 years ago
you came in the middle, it might help to go back and read what was originally.
eabdeb8176 3 years ago
im sooo sorry, you know it wasnt your fault right?! i would be SO traumatized... when you are still a child with developing muscle mass you shouldnt be expected to lift a full size man, by yourself! even a fully grown man wouldve had to drag him, possibly injuring him more, it was wrong of the operator to put you in that position! she shouldve instructed you to do cpr, thats what they are there for! if its anyone's fault, it was the operator not following procedure...im so sorry for your loss

What happens with the kid in the yard?
Godzillaman 5 years ago
I sort of remember what you are describing..I think the kids are playing tag. And one of the boys accidently pushes one of the other boys though a glass door, and his arms are covered in blood..it's pretty nasty.
happy7117 5 years ago
I'm an EMT and I've got to say the worst thing about calls like this is cleaning out your unit after the call. We're talking mop & bucket time, sometimes you have to take the mop to the celling too...Nasty!

They were playing in the yard. Mom or someone would go somewhere and they stayed home with their oldest brother. It would be really cool if you could show me or upload the video I've not found it.
