I heard about this on FOX News and thought it was very interesting. Hopefully the player will recover!

Amazing work. I know they lower the body temperature for some having brain aneurism surgery. I know a woman who did remarkably well after going through it. The cold slows down everything and halts the inflammation, which is a primary cause of permanent damage.

Very interesting.

Okay, someone with more military history can chime in and correct me. But didn’t they make similar discoveries about the affect of lowered bodied temperatures on soldiers injured during the Falklands War? I know I heard/read somewhere that the freezing temperatures helped save some of them because it slowed down the body processes.

One irony is that the hospital where he's being treated, Millard Fillmore - Gates Circle, which also has an excellent stroke care program, is to be closed on orders of the New York State government.

Our overlords believe we have too many hospital beds in Buffalo and are forcing the closure of Gates Circle and two other local hospitals. An example of how the government will increasingly limit our choices as it gets its grubby, bureaucratic hands on our health care.
