After heart surgery, the parents of a 13-year-old girl were told that their daughter was dying, and that they should start making end-of-life decisions, including donating her organs.
Upon transferring their daughter to another hospital however, they were told that doctors at Oregon Health and Science University had installed her new heart valve upside down.
“Doctors at Seattle Children's removed the inverted valve and replaced it with a different one, properly positioned. Her heart promptly began to function correctly. She was successfully taken off cardiac bypass and no longer required ECMO.
Her condition continued to stabilize over the following days in Seattle Children's ICU. After more than a month in critical condition, she was able to return home with her parents.”
@yount1130 I wasn’t the fastest on the track team, but last race I finally beat the time that I never could and came in ahead of a teammate that was usually faster than me. Just compete and be happy about your performance. I can’t believe, this stuff is happening.
@Chrysler what in the world did your engineers do to the parking assist? I used to be able to back my mom’s van out without any problem. Now with the new van, I’m going to get whiplash because it keeps thinking there’s something dangerous there. I turn it off
@yount1130 I tuned into the turning point half time show when the main one was going to start. I was also annoyed that NBC had the broadcast rights to the superbowl and the Olympics. It reminded me to tune into the alternative half time show.
@SenChrisLarson@TX2WI It saves money because they don’t pay much. I’ve seen the EOBs from both Medicare and Medicare Supplemental plansfor both of my parents. The payments are a joke, if they paid well, there wouldn’t be a need for the supplemental plans.
