So WhAt ThE FuDgE Is EcMo?..

WhAt Is EcMo?..
ECMO is the name of a specific LiFe SuPpOrT mAcHiNe, the word ECMO stands for EXTRA CORPRAL MEMBRANE OXYGENATION. its main job is to pump oxygenated blood throught the human body. With a small insersion through the side of the neck through the main artery, a CaNuLaR is placed all the way down through the artery where it sits in the abdominal region, this is what the bood will pass through full with OxYgEn, so the lungs were stopped and this gave them time to HeAl.

WhO NeEdS EcMo?..
these machines are mainly designed for the use of YoUnG bAbIeS and ChIlDrEn but in my case, due to the fact that i had about a clenched fists capacity of non infected space in my left lung i desperatly needed this machine. soon after being admitted to hospital i managed to PoP a LuNg and PuNcTuRe ThE oThEr, meaning i could No LoNgEr BrEaThE by myself so this is another reason why i had this LiFe SuPpOrT mAcHiNe.

AnOtHeR iNtErEsTiNg FaCt
there are only 4 HoSpItAls in the whole of Great Britaint that have the ECMO machine, and whilst in Ealing hospital, i was rapidly deteriarating and getting WeAkEr AnD wEaKeR. Dr's told my parents there was NotHiNg ThEy CoUlD dO to help me and if i did not get any help by the net morning i would be DEAD. The only option was to try and find me this machine, with the last call made, GrEaT oRmOnD sTrEeT hOsPiTaL managed to have OnE mAcHiNe SpArE, so after 3 solid hours of preparing me to just MOVE FROM A HOSPITAL BED TO THE AMBULANCE OUTSIDE i was on my way to experiance one of the biggest MiRiCaL known to both Ealing and Great Ormond Street Hospital...
