A Glimpse into the World of Critical Care: Real-Life Stories | Full Episode

[@helensarkisian7491]

Did anyone else catch that Theodore had a near death experience? “Yes”, he said, “someone does love me. I met him.” Awesome.

[@nancym7844]

Huge smile on my face seeing Theodore alive, then standing up, and able to walk. Great job of the hospital staff and Theodore's loving family.

[@Just1Nora]

That was an absolutely stunning story! To not only save a man with injuries that extensive, but to also get him to a state where not only his broken, flayed, and degloved limbs were not just saved but functional and his pelvis was put back together so that he is able to walk again?! Bravo doctors, surgeons, and all medical professionals involved. Everyone who played a part was important, from person collecting dressings, the people securing lines and shunting off torn open and gushing vessels to get the bleeding under control, to the humble and rarely mentioned clean up crew with their mops, disinfectant, fresh bedding, and biohazard bags of linens for the laundry. All of those are equally important. We appreciate all of you.

[@jekkabean]

I legitimately gasped. Absolutely incredible, he must have worked so hard for it.

[@Julaeable]

Malcolm is a great superior. Actually praising his team, being on top of things and selfcritical.

[@jackroberts9812]

I so agree when I grow up i really want to be a consultant like malcom

[@Just1Nora]

Yes! Lots of times you get leaders who degrade their teams, can't keep on task, and are overly critical of their team members' actions, which is exactly the wrong combination. Anyone lucky enough to get a superior like Malcolm, regardless of what the job is will certainly have the opportunity to do their best work.

I'm very impressed by the organisation they all did. To see the recovery makes me astonished, never even thought they all make it through. At least Theodore has a new birthday.

And for the ones who still make it through and are minus a thing or two -- they can help those patients on the way to adjusting towards their "new normal".

[@rickyscott9351]

We need more caring and thorough Doctors like Malcolm! Oh, my days! Quite often we see Doctors that just don't care enough or not at all. They do as minimal as possible, write out scripts not needed, and only car about the money coming in. Malcolm is a Superhero! Even when not at work he is still checking into see how patients are and checking to make sure he has done the right thing and everything he can for his patients. As well as cheering his team on by thanking them and giving them praise. Respectful to both staff and patients. Go Malcolm!!

It seemed to me that Theodore was hinting at a Near Death Experience. When the interviewer said "Someone up there loves you," he said "I know, I met him . . ." Very interesting!

[@pegs1659]

Yep, that's what I commented too. I like to know his experience.

Best part of my morning today when I watched Theodore get up out of that wheelchair and walk off frame!

[@SusiesRepeat]

I have tears in my eyes, watching these remarkable, dedicated people carry out their jobs to save peoples lives.

[@SafariPlum]

WoW just WoW, I'm impressed. What a brilliant documentary.. I only discovered the existence of this channel a few hours ago. This is a real, uncensored, unvarnished and honest look, at the heroes and heroines of emergency medicine. I finished the "Extreme A&E" series and am going through their other medical based documentary videos. I hope this channel's incredible medical documentaries, inspire you and the next generation to study medicine. If you can watch this, while feeling you want to be in the room helping, in any capacity, and are clever enough. Then you CAN be among those who save lives, every single work day. From the nurses, to the doctors, to the EMTs, or be it an orderly or administrator. There are plenty of opportunities and skillsets, that come together to orchestrate a symphony of saving lives.

[@mjblue84]

Absolute incredible teamwork!!! I am amazed!!!!

[@Saya_DreamWorld]

Ooh, I sure did tear up when reading in the end that Theodor survived and that they somehow put him together again well enogh that he can walk, and walk without support at that, ooh that made me so happy. I were also very happy the others got well as well. Fantastic people at this hospital.

These are the kind of people that do medicine proud. There are many like them who are represented by Dr. Malcolm, Sister Jen, and Dr. Firas - who wasn't in this episode but is often seen in these programs. I think we could all point to one or more dedicated physicians who has made an enormous difference in our own lives. I'm grateful to them all.

[@sarabrown6742]

I find the comparison of people who "comment" about waiting an hour to be treated in the ER vs the same situation in a metropolitan US Emergency Room interesting. The last time I went to the ER I was triaged within an hour, but then had an 8 hour wait to be taken back to a bed. I think it was about an hour after that when a doctor was available to see me. (It was a legit ER visit - I'd developed a large infection following a surgery and came in with a fever of 102.7°F. Just in case anyone's wondering or thinking I was there for a hang-nail ...lol) All told I was in the hospital for about 30 hours (had to have IV antibiotics, which took several more hours to administer) and I think the total bill after my insurance "paid" their portion was around $6,500. These Londoners get seen in less than 4 hours (per NHS guidelines), and it's all covered by the NHS. I know they pay HUGE taxes, comparatively, and there can be tremendous waits for surgeries and specialist doctors, BUT it certainly sounds like it might be worth it to get this level of care ... The grass always "seems" greener, though .... Doesn't it? 😊

[@tessaoshea5697]

The taxes aren't even that much higher when you consider the cost of health insurance premiums and deductible and even the cost of stuff that Americans buy out of pocket without even thinking about it- wheelchairs, home helps etc

[@RaeCarson]

Not even ashamed to admit it -- when Theodore stood up and walked toward the camera, I gasped LOUDLY and my hands flew to my mouth and the tears fell. I....can't.....wow. He's got a crazy amount of willpower. I love that at NO point whatsoever did anybody give up on him. Everybody kept giving their all, 100% of the time. Also.....for Apostolos: Even if one of you should ever lose the other, you'll never stop being a brother or having a brother. Yours is the type of family love that transcends and it won't ever go away.

[@MrBeachwaves]

The fact that the one doctor near the end thought a severely concussed William was going to remember his instructions is concerning.

[@tmfromdenmark9158]

It is as true as it is said. One minute one of your loved ones is there, and the next minute they are gone. It happened to me when I lost my father, who was only 49 years old. ❤️😢

Like an anthill that got kicked...uff da. I was happiest doing geriatrics & oncology, and after 52 1/2 years, I retired as a Hospice nurse. It was hard to hear compliments from those that are helped, because nursing was my job, one that I'd always wanted since I was 12 y/o. Even with all the ups and downs, multiple demands from changing laws & various facility administrations rules, it was still a wonderful career. There just wasn't an appropriate come-back to those folks who said thank-you. And often, I wished we had a better response than thank-you for major events in our lives.
