OK...how lucky is this? [message #76057]

I've been trying to reach my studio partner over the last week or so.
Nothing important really...................just to let him know that I was
still waiting on a few things to trickle in so I can finish up the new
studio confuguration before we start our next project. I hadn't heard from
him but he's a touring musician and also has some stuff going on with a home
building project in Hawaii so I figured I'd hear from him when he had a
chance to come up for air.

I just got a call from him. He was at our local hospital in the ER a week
ago Tuesday due to his wife having some problems. He started getting a
severe headache and then collapsed and started convulsing. They were on it
immediately and a spinal tap showed he had lood in his spinal fluid. Further
tests confirmed that he was having a cerebral hemmorage. They called his
family in Oklahoma and put him on a life flight jet to Denver with a 5%
chance of survival. His brother is a trauma surgeon in Oklahoma city and had
already told his parants to prepare for the worst because the chance of his
waking up were around "zero". Everyone flew to Denver to wait it out.

Instead of an arterial bleed, it was a vein. The bleeding stopped on it's
own, without surgery and he's back home and though a little weak, he's
entirely normal..brain function 100%. The doctors said this is pretty much
unheardof...a one in a multimillion outcome and that he should just go on
and live his life. The chances of it happening again are about as remote as
his chances were of survival when it happened.

We figure there's a song in there somewhere.
