DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE !
Especially on your Birthday...
A very unfortunate incident happened on this man’s birthday. This was my patient who apparently had a drinking spree with some of his friends. On that same night he decided to ride a motorcycle to fetch a friend. With too much alcohol running through his veins he thread a dark street not knowing misfortune will befall him. Because of alcohol toxicity, he didn’t saw a trailer motor vehicle in front of him. He hit the back of the trailer with a piece of steel pipe, protruding from the vehicle. The pipe pierced through his abdomen down to the peritoneum, slashing slitting almost half of his abdomen, spilling his guts on the concrete pavement. Several bystanders helped him, gathering up his bowels, he was brought in the hospital. I’ve seen the patient and was referred to our surgeon, he was scheduled for Emergency Laparotomy, blood transfusions were done. He survived the operation but pass away after 2 days. He succumbed to severe infection. Drinking and Driving surely is irreconcilable.
