Bills Damar Hamlin Injury Thread

They will bring him out slowly. The “only” concern at this point is his brain. Were the compressions adequate and fast enough to keep his brain supplied. Looked like it was. Window is 5 minutes or so with no flow to brain.

 

As a dane, this episode is eerily similar to the 2020 Euro Cup where danish football captain Christian Erikson collapsed on the field after suffering cardiac arrest.

He had the same recovery process, medically induced coma, and was slowly brought out of it. He had a small defibulator implant placed near his heart, and as far as i know he has to have that implant installed for the rest of his life.

I hope Hamlin recovers and gets a new lease on life!

 

That's great to hear, and stories like that can hopefully motivate him in his recovery process.
Erikson also managed to get back to playing professional football in the Premier League and for the danish national team.
So there is certainly a way back from something as scary as this. Let's hope Hamlin can recover in similar fashion.

 

was on YT and saw that he passed.
Uhhhhh. Pretty sure he’s still alive wtf!
