re: Emergency Situations One of my mates (very stupidly) didn't take his Dilantin for three days at a lan and got virtually no sleep. He was kicking our asses in Q3 Rocket Arena when he keeled over sideweays off his chair and had a seizure. We called him an ambulance and then proceeded to regain the lead before the game ended. Phew, nearly missed out.
Nah, I lie. We stayed near him the whole time making sure he knew we were with him and talking to him, and it took like 15 minutes for the fucking ambulance to arrive. He was ok although he stayed in bed for the next three days making up for it.
Anyway, I was in the Atrium on Elliot getting my lunch one day and an old guy sitting near me had a heart attack. He pretty much just fell out of his chair. I picked him up and started trying to work out if he was breathing or not, and yelled at some people to cal lan ambulance. About thirty people stood there and stared at me and did nothing. After asking for the third time one of the staff there went to find a phone.
Long story short, he died while I was holding him. Nobody knew what to do. Shortly after that some lady who claimed to be a nurse joined the scene and offered to take over. I finished getting my lunch and left. |
