Reply To: GBS patient dies

I almost made that statistic. While hospitalized for GBS and undergoing breathing treatments, I went “Code Blue”. They rushed a team to my room to keep me alive. I remember uncontrollably loosing coconsciousness, and then everything went black. After they resuscitated me, I was very groggy and had no comprehension about what had just happened. All I can remember is seeing light and it got brighter as my brain began to function again. I was lucky the team acted so quickly to save my life.

I’m saddened to hear your friend was not able to be kept alive.
