Remember too, this event only happened 40 hours ago
It’s a good sign though!.......................
I wonder what his brain function looks like. That is the big concern.
Strong as bulls’ athletes having sudden heart attacks. Yeah right. How many 25 year olds have died across the country that we don’t hear about?
Since he’s in ICU they can’t do a brain scan in a MRI..............
He did not have a heart attack, he had cardiac arrest, big difference. Heart attack are caused by a clot, cardiac arrest is not.
Thank God!
Here’s a link to the ESPN main football page. Go to the video a near the top titled “Damar Hamlin’s friend and business partner shares positive update”
Interesting intro by the ESPN commentator at the hospital; “I have to tell you the fact you guys said there’s power in prayer- indeed there is”
If he was a white player would he still garner as much attention ?
“ Glenn said there were some encouraging signs, such as doctors lowering the level of oxygen Hamlin needs from 100% to 50%.
“He’s still sedated right now,” Glenn told CNN. “They just want him to have a better chance of recovering better. So, they feel that if he’s sedated, his body can heal a lot faster than if he was woke and possibly cause other complications.”
According to Glenn, Hamlin is now “flipped over on his stomach” in the hospital to help with the blood in his lungs.
“Doctors said that Damar is on his stomach to help take the pressure off the lungs, so they don’t have to work as hard,” Glenn said.
Glenn went on to say that the next step is to get Hamlin, who is still sedated on a ventilator, to breathe on his own.“

I wasn’t watching. Did he take a hit to the chest?
Interesting how leftists find God after years of trashing those who followed him.
Stupid thing to ask, of course he would. Maybe more.
Yes
Watch this video. He's #3:
God works in mysterious ways. The massive prayer ring on the field was too much for even ESPN to ignore.
Or maybe its not leftists- maybe its God fearing people who work for places like ESPN finally not afraid to speak out.
They can do an EEG. I think the MRI with dye (fMRI) is most common, but uses blood flow as a proxy for brain activity. The EEG makes a direct measurement of neural activity. I am just not sure how much the artificial coma condition affects the ability to detect normal function.
