This is kinda  so heads up.My brother in law is a lawyer with the law firm that has the contract to defend doctors against lawsuits in my area. He told me about the following case he's currently working on. A woman was going into labor and the baby was only 18 weeks old (smaller than a banana). It was not going to survive so the doctors wanted to do a c-section but she insisted on a "natural birth". So she's pushing the baby our and the head pops out when she suddenly has a contraction. Because of the baby's small size and soft bones this literally decapitated the baby and it's head went flying across the room. Blood is spraying everywhere and everyone is screaming. Because of the contraction, the baby's body was pulled back in to the uterus and crushed it so it was now in 3 pieces. The doctor had to go in and pull all the pieces out. Then the mother insisted on holding the "baby". The nurses and doctors are all strongly advising her against this but she is insisting. So a nurse has to take all the parts and tapes them together and wraps it up in a blanket. Then while the mother holding the baby the dad starts taking photos of their "little angel" to post on facebook. The end result is the parents are suing the doctor for negligence and nurses and other staff that were in the room all had to go to therapy.

I was buying it until the premature baby's head flew across the room and got blood on everyone. Physics and biology don't work that way. I could see something like that happening, but that story is--at the very least--extremely embellished.

I'd imagine most if not all are internal decapitations, not the head literally flying off like it's Paris 1795.

Mo_Steel posted:It's gotta be deadmoo5e For black bear, like that video (best video, btw, one of my all time favourites) spray is probably good enough, and a gun is causing more hazard than it's protecting you from. I have no personal experience with Grizzly country besides some light hiking in the Rockies. Polar bears, the gun.  Gun and Rock by Martin Brummell, on FlickrI have opinions about predator-deterent PPE, but this gun was good enough. I would have prefered a shorter barrel and as much high-vis bright colours as possible. I've fired a handful of warning shots over the heads of a couple of polar bears on a few separate occassions. The hardest part is keeping your silly colleagues from crossing the firing line and getting in front of you while you're pumping the next round into the chamber and everybody is screaming their favourite blistering swearwords at the hopefully-retreating 1000-lb furry monster that's not yet far enough downrange. Other useful PPE includes "bear bangers", a starter pistol fitted with a nice little firecracker - noisy and helpful if the bear is not committed to investigating you. Also things like an alarm fence; we had one on one of my Arctic trips but it was fiddly and difficult to set up, especially when you have to drive the fibreglass fenceposts into rocky, frozen ground. All of the predator-deterent stuff we had came with its own risks. The gun, obviously, is a good way to hurt yourself or somebody else on your team - I got muzzle-flashed by a field assistant one day, but some mild shouting got the point across there. The fence runs off a car battery, and the bear spray is just a bad day waiting to happen. A bear got into the buildings at our main site one winter, and the bear biologists who passed through on a survey in April discovered the damage. They told us about the fun times cleaning up the powdery residue from the bear spray can the bear had bitten through in the main room - the two guys had to take turns running outside and washing their faces in snow because cleaning it up pushed the dust into the air. Three months later we could still taste a special spiciness in the air when we were cleaning the kitchen. That bear also left a noseprint on the inside of the window over the kitchen table; he was large.

It's also really, really annoying when the new guy in the team gets up in the middle of the night to take a piss and accidentally sets off the perimeter alarm and everyone freaks out because they think a polar bear is trying to get into the camp and then someone has to go to all the trouble of resetting the fence. God forbid he does it twice, because then he needs to get learned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjEcdZI_EgM

E: in case of quoting I don’t loving do uteruses y’all BUT given the pliability of early fetal bones, decapitation and dismemberment during an extremely premature delivery is not even slightly unbelievable. After a miscarriage, sometimes a D&C is necessary to remove retained fetal and placental... detritus. Additionally, having recently squeezed a giant baby out of my vadge, I can confirm that there’s a lot of forward-and-backward action during active pushing contractions. I could see Kepler’s scalp during each contraction for over an hour before we finally got him out, but when each contraction eased I couldn’t see anything but a lock of his hair hanging outta my crotch. Here’s the deal though: at that stage of fetal development, we are talking about less than a pound of baby. The head wouldn’t be likely to fly anywhere— more of a tumble-and-roll situation, although when it comes to dead baby parts that probably feels like a trebuchet launch. Most of the blood would be maternal, and yes, that could fly— the laboring vagina is basically a potato cannon full of wet shreds once there’s no baby in the way. There would have been very little recognizable as a baby by the time the parts were gathered up. A flying baby head would have been more-or-less crushed by deceleration trauma, and a rolling baby head would be barely recognizable anyway. There was probably a tiny, intact hand or foot in there somewhere, and that’s probably what the parents focused on. I still believe the Facebook posting aspect though because I’ve had pts demand to take pictures of their post-surgical BMs to share on social media. And honestly, evocative language aside, this story is completely plausible as a tragedy that would have been difficult to prevent from playing out this way. Not to open a can of worms, but this is actually what partial-birth abortion was supposed to prevent. A baby who can’t survive could be humanely euthanized, dismembered cleanly to preserve its body, and retrieved without the trauma of full delivery so that the grieving mother could have time with her dead child. elise the great fucked around with this message at 23:12 on Feb 20, 2018 |
