damar hamlin Die?

[tmoible]

Any update on him?

[homie1975]

last update i saw was that he had a pulse but was intubated meaning he could not breathe on his own.

just awful.

[pologq]

very sad. his mom in the stands too.

[Yulia74]

the ambulance waited outside the stadium for hamlin's mom to get in before it left for the hospital

if he was in critical condition they wouldn’t waste any time getting him to the hospital.

They got his heart started again. That was the key thing. As far as breathing the ambulance was giving him what oxygen they could.

[Allure]

Getting the heart starting again was good yes, but in the meantime the brain wasn't getting oxygen for who knows how long. So even if he makes it, it can leave permanent damage. Hoping for a full recovery.

no o2 to the brain for minutes, getting heart started is only one battle of many.

[Seattle Slew]

Very similar to the Mike Leach situation. He was still alive for several days before passing away. The only reason we knew he was near death was because some person who knew him said he needed a miracle. The family never said anything.

So in this spot, same deal. Unless someone close to the family reveals the true condition, we won't know anything about what shape he's really in.

Someone should give update on his condition

[Kermit]

Someone should give update on his condition

I have been reading some really ugly rumors about his condition. I hope they are not true.

the ambulance very likely has all of the same main medical equipment as the emergency room.

[homie1975]

it all comes down to one main thing: how long did his brain go without oxygen. the only way the brain gets oxygen is through blood flow and that comes from the heart beating.

every second of the brain getting deprived oxygen, is a golden second.

it can take away his most basic human functions.

it is so sad.

No

merge thread

[Machba]

Basically yes

[Fishhead]

DON BEST has him OUT for Sunday

[KVB]

DON BEST has him OUT for Sunday

(LEG)

Yeah, original report said leg.

That might change to "heart" but still be "questionable" for Sunday. I've seen that out there already.

Some reports have him "out" with "undisclosed"

The reporting is all fukked up right now.

[slayer14]

Don best needs canceling like Skip Bayless lol

[homie1975]

Damar's quality of life is almost squarely dependent right now on how many seconds he went without oxygen.

the only way to get oxygen to the brain is through the heart beating and the blood flowing so the CPR administered to him
within 10 seconds of him collapsing is going to be key.


i am pretty certain he will survive but if his brain was deprived of oxygen for too long, he will have lost key brain functionality
and may not have a normal life.


there are too many unknowns right now.

The same thing happened to Chris Pronger when he was hit in the chest with a puck.

Hamlin looks to be worse off than Pronger though.
