Even while on these drugs, mentally he could’ve become extremely anxious and drained emotionally. The fact that he still cracked a joke, is definitely not only because of the drugs, but probably because he genuinely is a funny and kind man.

The worst part for me was when the paramedic said to the nurses 'I know the bones are all over the place at the moment but the best place is on the inside'..how open were those open fractures?!?
@TheNoobGreG
3 жыл бұрын
@@madhatterbecky An open fracture means that the broken bit of bone has penetrated the skin, so it has to be broken pretty badly for it to cut through the skin, and in some cases though not that I saw here, can still be sticking out. He also had multiple open fractures, so the bone cut through the skin in several places on each leg. So his legs were BADLY broken. As an EMT I can tell you it's 'fun' stuff. If there's problems with pulse, like in this case, you have to pull the bone back in and hope that helps get blood flow restored beneath the injury.
I know what Ian goes through here. I went down with my mc three weeks ago and I'm still in the hospital here in Sweden. I broke my nose, cracked four ribs, broke my lower right arm. But my leg was worst. I had my right knee completely crushed and broke my femur in three places. At first I had too much adrenaline to feel any pain, but once it started go down, man the pain... The ambulance staff were nice enough to give me many ml of morphine and fentanyl, but it was not enough so they anesthetized me on the spot to put me away from my misery. It's been three weeks of hell with 7 operations in less then 10 days, but hopefully I'll get to come home this upcoming week. Stay safe on the road everyone!

Thanks for all the kind wishes guys. I’m still back and forth to the hospital a couple of times every week to be checked out, with x-ray and such but I’m slowly healing. Turned out my left thumb was broken aswell so I had surgery for that a couple of weeks ago. When you are broken in so many places It’s hard to know exactly where you feel pain since you are on to some pretty heavy medication. My tip for anyone who get badly injured is to be very careful with the pain medicine you get prescripted. When I was trying to quit after 2 months it was very hard because your body has become physcially addicted. Respect the medicine and never use it unless you really have to take it, because otherwise you’re already complicated life will have another problem you have to deal with. I’m doing alot better but I still have alot of problems walking in stairs and such and my knees probably never fully recover from being crushed. They hurt bad everyday but you sort of manage to stop thinking about it, just accepting what it is. Anyways, this wont stop me from getting back on a bike, riding is the best thing I know in life so as soon as I’m as best recovered as it get, I’ll be back on it! :)
That nurse and the rescuers were heroes, bless them!

You cleary have know clue just how many lives are save by the air ambulance teams. And the carry blood on board now, and the doctors volunteer for free to do the air ambulance work. And there life saving skills save lifes, so there better off out there treating people that are really hurt, unlike seeing 20 to 40 people that cleary should have not been in A&E in the 1st place. And also going by air the person can be flown too the hospital with specialist care, like a burns unit. And the air ambulance is funded by the public, so there not wasting any NHS money. You would not be moaning if your life was saved by the air ambulance teams now would you?

While he was suffering with both legs broken, I was a broken femur at the same time. I feel for the man and the excruciating pain.
I've never seen an adult human shiver like this poor man. That has to have been the worst pain ever....
Watching them stretch that putty like leg out was godawful. Man oh man. Bless all of our emergency service personnel, across the world. I couldn't imagine doing this line of work.
He seems like A good man
What a lucky guy to not loose the leg to the sign (severed) and a nurse showing up to prevent him from bleeding out. He would have been dead for sure, with an open fracture and cut to the main pipelines!
This is one of the best shows I've seen in a while. Also a pilot... so the flying part is great also!
I later found an article, in which revealed that his left leg was unable to be saved. Poor poor guy
This is my favourite program, but please please can you let us know how the patient gets on afterwards,like the tv version does. Apart from that I have nothing but praise for all the paramedics and the service that they provide
"What we're gonna do, we're gonna gently bring this leg out to length, I know the bones are all over the place at the minute, best place for them is the inside" If I'm ever in this position, I hope to God I get a person like this to help me. Just getting it done.
This is so amazing team.. How i wish there is also like the in the Philippines
This makes me feel lucky. I was in an accident 3 months ago and broke both of my legs. It just changes your whole life.
That medic walked the others through Traction really nicely. Felt like it might have been their first time, outside any training. That has got to be one of the most indescribable sensations when the bones are sliding into place, for patient and medic haha.
I can feel his pain. Last 2016, I broke my 2 legs from motorcycle accident. That was the worst experience i ever had.
I broke my femur 3 years ago yesterday. The pain he's feeling is absolutely horrible. When I was at the hospital, the Dr's had to give me Fentynal so they could straighten my leg out so it could be xrayed. I feel for you, man!
“ that went in nicely” *ian walks off*
here is my message to all the great people that save our lives day by day. thank you will never be enough i can say. but thank you anyway
wow god bless this strong man
Those nurses r heroes!
Great work!

no one absolutely no one cornwall emergency service when there is an emergency: HELICOPTER HERE WE GO
Ian Dawson had just come off Junction 5 of the M18 on his way home from his job as a postman in Brigg when very low blood sugar levels caused a ‘hypo’ attack. The Type 1 diabetic was catapulted 30 metres through the air, smashed his legs into a road sign before landing on the other side of the motorway junction roundabout barrier. “My sugar levels must have plummeted on the ride home but I was concentrating so much I didn’t realise it was affecting me until I heard a loud bang, which was me hitting the sign, and I remember lying on the ground and pretty much accepting death,” said 51-year-old Ian. “My legs were just in a knot but there was an angel on my shoulder that day who literally saved my life.” That ‘angel’ was off-duty District Nurse Sister Kathryn Bebb who pulled over to help. “I just grabbed my nursing bag from the boot of the car and followed this girl over the barrier to where Ian was on the ground,” said 30-year-old Kathryn from Cusworth. “When I got there his legs were really badly smashed. I got a couple of lads to call the ambulance and these other two girls helped me as I cut his trousers off. “He was bleeding quite heavily out of one of his legs where his artery had been severed so I tourniqueted his leg and we applied compression and just kept talking to Ian. He said he was a diabetic and needed some sugar so someone got a can of coke from their car which helped.” Kathryn, who works for Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust (RDaSH), added: “His injuries were very gruesome with a lot of bones protruding but these girls, and everyone who stopped to help, were amazing and it just goes to show what people can do.” Ian was airlifted to the Northern General Hospital, Sheffield, by Yorkshire Air Ambulance but doctors were unfortunately unable to save his shattered left leg which was amputated below the knee. The accident happened in April last year, and Ian has gone through months of painful hospital treatment and physiotherapy with more to come. “Everyone from the Air Ambulance to the hospital staff have just been fantastic and I can’t thank them enough but this has just completely changed my life and it has been very hard at times,” added the father-of-two Ian. “My false leg is OK but I still have a lot of pain with my right leg because of the tissue scarring and it’s very difficult to walk, but while I don’t think I will be able to walk without crutches, I’m hoping things will improve a lot.” He and partner of 20 years Karen got married in June and the couple are looking forward to a new life when they move into a bungalow in Wheatley, Doncaster. Ian’s accident features in Monday night’s episode of Helicopter ER, the award-winning UKTV programme which follows the life-saving work of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. The programme, which airs at 9pm on UKTV’s real life channel Really, also features the dramatic attempts to save the life of a grocer who collapsed and stopped breathing while loading his van and a boy’s daring jump into the water at Whitby harbour which ends in a serious injury Helicopter ER is made by York-based Air Television who have won two Royal Television Society awards for their work on the compelling series. Yorkshire Air Ambulance (YAA) serves 5million people across Yorkshire and carries out over 1,300 missions every year. The charity operates two, state-of-the-art Airbus H145 helicopters and needs to raise £12,000 every day to keep saving lives.

@Turbo Last Name All UK air ambulances are funded and operated by charities. The Yorkshire Air Ambulance featured here, spent for the year up to the end of March 2022 a total of £5.9 million (all voluntary donations from the public or companies). They responded with their two helicopters to 1,701 incidents so that works out at £3,469 each. The patients are never charged for their services. That's the way we like it.
