    Unfortunatly even when you are in the hospital when this happens and everyone around you is aware of what’s happening fast enough to act, it’s probably still fatal. Often times this happens deep inside the brain, there is no way to get someone into brain surgery fast enough. And even if somehow the doctors can get in there, often there is nothing to be done. If it’s deep in the brain, there is no good way of getting in there without causing a lot of damage and depending on the exact situation it can’t even be fixed.

    It’s just one of those really sad things that happens without anybody being able to do something about it.

    This is unfortunatly common in my family and I’ve had family members eating themselves up about it, if they just acted faster and got them to the hospital faster. But everyone from the hospital side was very clear about this, there is nothing that anyone could have done.

      Honestly, that sounds like it could give a modicum of comfort in a fucked up situation. Nothing you did did in any way contribute to the tragedy that happened.
