Has anyone ever known anyone who successfully came off life support? [/quote] Yes, but I can't think of any that didn't have at least some quality of life issues afterwards, but I don't have that many data points. I'm sure it depends on circumstances though, which we don't know yet. If I recall correctly, Dennis Weathersby was on life support for a while when he had his accident.

[/quote] Yeah, if the truck was moving at any kind of speed at all, and especially if curves or swerving were involved, even an attempted jump could end badly. There are laws of physics that suggest that you would have very little control over how you landed. Prayers for Henry and his family right now.

You may break a bone or 2 but not neccesarily. I saw the lifted truck and he could have been in better condition if he jumped on his own and protected himself. I just don't think he jumped on his own. I think his fiancee swerved and he fell out the truck unprotected resulting in a much worse fall. The police probably think so as well and that's why homicide investigators are involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the time nor the place. Ben reference was bizarre and weird. The comment on Henry's actions is very premature if not worse. We clearly don't have all the facts, and even if accurate, are you saying you've never done anything in the heat of the moment that you later regretted? [/quote] I am not saying that. What I am saying is that I dont do nearly EVERYTHING in the heat of the moment that I later regretted. Celebrating him and thanking him for what he did in his life does not mean we can't learn from his many mistakes. The Ben Reference was in regards to wondering what the posts were like here when he had his horrific injury. The post was referring to rude and inapropriate steelers fans and I was saying pot meet ketle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

globetrotter Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 From my experience with persons in situations like this a brain injury can often cause severe swelling that pushes the brain up against the skull. I think that the doctors then just wait to see how and if that swelling goes down. Anyone on here in a medical field can probably provide better insight. It could mean anything from he can live a perfectly fine life (without the collisions of football) to fatality depending on the brains response.

bammorrisgotmehigh Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Praying for Henry to pull through. Growing up in West Virginia and being a WVU fan my whole life I always like to follow those players and have always followed Henry's career and hoped he would have a successfull one. Has destroyed my Steelers in the past big time. Especially in 2005/2006. Always thought he had Moss like talent if he could ever get on the field. Sux that he has had so much trouble but was seeming to be turning it around and then he gets hurt and now this. Saw the FOX Sports Net (or whatever it was) piece a few months ago on him showing how he was turning it around and was playing with his kids and stuff and trying to get back. I know I have made fun of him in the past on here because of his troubles but it was all in good jest just to try to get a rise out of you all. Always liked him as a player and wished we had drafted him. Hope he pulls through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
