pacovl46 Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 8 hours ago, CanadaSam said: So he sustained injuries after being rescued. Could you please tell us how? It's just bad writing. He sustained the injuries because he almost drowned. You lungs are coated on the inside by a film that keeps your lungs from sticking together. When water enters your lungs it can wash the film off and then your lungs will stick together which will cause you to suffocate. It's called secondary drowning. That's why it's so important to always bring people who almost drowned to a hospital because this can happen up to three says after a person has almost drowned. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man across the soi from me is nearly 75 and just started a relationship with a girl 29.
