Positivity: Good deed saves a life
A man willing to do a favor at his work had his life saved because of his good deed.
Doctors were preparing the new hospital in Rockwall to open, and they needed a volunteer to help calibrate the new CAT scan.
An employee was a willing volunteer, and the scan saved his life.
Turns out, he had an aneurysm nearly two centimeters wide.
“It was just shock, similar to when you tell any patient of a very serious medical condition, except magnify it times the fact the he knew absolutely nothing was going on prior to it,” said Dr. Gary Bonaquisti, Vice Chief of Staff.
Doctors immediately operated on him.
The man had no symptoms, and no idea he was so close to death.
When the surgeon touched it, the aneurysm broke open.
He’s doing just fine now.
