Hoooly shit, please be okay

 

[Einchy]

Oh fuck, this sounds really bad.

Don't die on us, Carrie! We need your weird ass Twitter posts to continue for the rest of time.

 

[Iceternal]

PLEASE 2016 DON'T KILL CARRIE I NEED HER IN STAR WARS.

So you wouldn't give a shit if she wasn't in the new trilogy right ?

 

[Goodstyle]

Please be OK Carrie.

 

[E92 M3]

So you wouldn't give a shit if she wasn't in the new trilogy right ?

What is the point of your antagonizing post?

 

[Davide]

So if paramedics worked for 15 minutes without a pulse once the plane landed, that means 30 minutes without a pulse?

 

[LifEndz]

Prayers for her and her family. Please let her pull through.

 

[Servbot24]

Ah jeez wishing her all the best

So you wouldn't give a shit if she wasn't in the new trilogy right ?

Come on man.

 

[Brakke]

So you wouldn't give a shit if she wasn't in the new trilogy right ?

Don't be a prick.

 

[shira]

Man. 2016. Lay off.

.

 

[IAmtheFMan]

It's not the best news, but being a pathologist, I can say I've seen people go through some pretty crazy shit and end up being ok. All hope is not lost, we just have to wait and see.

You're not wrong, but as a neurologist who sees post anoxic injury... 15-30 minutes downtime even with compressions is a long time.

 

[Blastoise]

The outlook is not good. Hopefully a miracle will happen.

 

[mariachi507]

Goddammit, just saw this. Carrie is an awesome person, pull through!

 

[TheDinoman]

Mother of fuck.

 

[Iceternal]

I just thought it was in poor taste saying basically :

"don't die you still need to film more star wars movies"

Can't just say "please survive" ?

Can"t believe I'm the one called a prick here lol.

People have been called out for saying "fuck 2016" but wishing for her to survive so she can film more movies is ok ?

What about wishing for a human being to live ?

 

[SDBurton]

So you wouldn't give a shit if she wasn't in the new trilogy right ?

Even in this thread there's people looking for an argument. Come the fuck on people...

 

[LNBL]

Man, was watching the star wars trilogy a week or 2 ago on sky and the force awakens yesterday please be ok

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Hope she pulls through.

Hope

 

[zerosum]

Hope she pulls through...

Keep up the fight.

 

[Linkura]

According to TMZ, Billie Lourd (her only child) and her dog are at the hospital now.

Still hoping she pulls through.

 

[VeteranGamer]

Ah, well that's at least somewhat reassuring. The few times I was involved in a code in med school I was usually on chest compression duty and damn it is ROUGH, lol.

EDIT: To give people an idea, I've had people say "If you're not legitimately trying to palate the person's spine through their chest, then your compressions aren't good enough." It is a very tough job. Broken ribs, punctured lungs, etc are not uncommon. I hope she pulls through ok

Are you a doctor?

 

[WedgeX]

Got dang. I hope she ends up alright.

 

[Ambient80]

You're not wrong, but as a neurologist who sees post anoxic injury... 15-30 minutes downtime even with compressions is a long time.

Indeed it is.

 

[LiK]

Hope she'll be okay.

 

[Ambient80]

Yes, I'm a pathologist.

 

[Donthizz#]

hope she pulls through.

fuck 2016

 

[Fluxdyne]

I saw her on the 8 out of 10 cats Christmas episode a couple of days ago... I hope she recovers.

 

[Figboy79]

Just heard about this a few minutes ago.

Awful. I hope a miracle happens and she pulls through. 2016 has done a number on my ability to muster up hope, so I'll just send my thoughts and prayers to her family.

Don't you often end up breaking many bones and fucking things up even more ?

 

[studyguy]

I thought no breathing for 5 or more minutes was basically brain death. Hear even with CPR it can be pretty damaging if it doesn't circulate enough air. Hope she pulls through ok, scary stuff considering she's not THAT old at 60.

 

[Freeza Under The Shower]

Well, as sad as this is, she had a really good run. Shame she won't there for future SW movies anymore, but all of those people were on borrowed time anyway. Even if she lives, she won't have an active part.
And yes, I said 'if' because heart issues tend to be where your life ends. There is no cure, there's no magic getaway, and there's little that can be done about it. That's how it is, sadly.

 

[echoshifting]

This is so awful. God, I hope she pulls through but none of this sounds good.

 

[Living the Dream]

May the Force be strong with her.

Spoiler

FUCK YOU 2016

 

[LNBL]

This fucking year just keeps getting worse by the day

 

[Already Torn]

Don't you often end up breaking many bones and fucking things up even more ?

More than...?

 

[Polari]

It could turn out she's pretty lucky they were only 15 minutes from LAX. If it had happened mid-way over the Atlantic she'd be toast.

 

[Kindekuma]

Don't you often end up breaking many bones and fucking things up even more ?

Breaking the breast bone and some ribs is common practice when giving CPR. Chest compressions when giving CPR need to be at least 2 inches deep, so you really gotta press down hard.

 

[FStop7]

Come on, not Princess Leia...

I felt the 'i need you for star wars' comment was very distasteful too.

 

[Ambient80]

Broken ribs and such are certainly common. "Fucking things up even more" is a bit harsh, considering the alternative is death.

 

[Digital-Hero]

She's not dead yet. You never know, she could pull through. (Yes, the odds are against her but have some faith.)

 

[AlphaSnake]

Wow...pretty tragic.

15 minutes is an awfully long time, she will likely never be the same if she lives. But I'm hoping for a miracle.

 

[Iceternal]

What if breaking the rib cage causes one bone to pierce a lung ?

 

[azyless]

Damn, hoping for the best here but it doesn't sound too good :/

 

[Already Torn]

What if breaking the rib cage causes one bone to pierce a lung ?

That's still better than being fucking dead

Unless you're more concerned about the quality of cadaver that future med students will dissect

 

[Nielm]

What the fuck, I just got back from watching Rogue One.

I hope she is okay and can make a recovery.

 

[magawolaz]

oh god no

 

[TrueBlue]

Nonono

I don't even know how to parse this. "Borrowed time"? What? She's 60.
