Muamba

Shiiiittt :C If he was cut out of oxygen for too long, even if he survives, he'll have permanent brain damage I reckon! Here's hoping he recovers, poor guy :c

BREAKING: Ambulance crew confirms that they got Muamba breathing again. @markchapman

Good news at least.

Loved him at Blues, when I started following them.
I hope he survives
 
I feel awful for saying this, but I have an odd suspicion that he's died. Normal medical practice is to cease ressusitation after 20-25 minutes, muamba was taken to hospital after failure to resusstitate after about 20 minutes. I think they may be holding it back from the public until they alert his family. As I say, I hope he's fine, but honestly, I don't see it.

So why would the ambulance crew confirm they got him breathing again?

On the one hand I think you may be right, however I'd like to think that they wouldn't confirm that he is breathing again if there wasn't at least some hope that he will recover, otherwise they will have got everyone's hopes up for nothing.

Could be wishful thinking, but it just wouldn't seem to add up to announce that he is breathing if there is still no chance of survival. Before that tweet, I was convinced that the worst had happened. I just hope this is not false hope.

I agree with your logic tbh. If he's alive and breathing they would at least say that he was "Fighting for his life" or "alive but in a unstable condition".
If he's dead then they will need to tell the family first before anything.
 
I doubt the crew will inform anyone but the doctor who's responsible for treatment of Muamba of his condition.
 
I still have a horrible feeling.

But one thing's for certain, we won't find out officially until tomorrow at the earliest.

I immediately called my friend who is a doctor, and he told me Muamba's chances are low. I hope he's wrong, he's actually a great doctor, but I hope he's wrong this time.

They actually try to give as little information out at possible either way. Because they try to contact the family, and stabilise the condition. They say little until they are sure either way. Their concern isn't with the public, just the casualty and informing next of kin on their status
