is what Sophia had FIVE TIMES when she was in the ICU. It stops your heart and restarts it. I think it is the scariest drug ever!?

I hear ya. I am a med surg nurse and we're not allowed to go near the stuff. I've seen it used in codes and it is really scary.

I'm sorry. I bet that's hard to watch on TV now.

minnasmommy · November 2008

I pretty much freaked out and had to turn it off.?

oh and the female doctor (forget her name) gave it to herself and passed out.

OMG, seriously?

I can't imagine what you went through, M.

Oh hell yeah, that drug is crazy scary.

minnasmommy · November 2008

I'm still not over the whole thing. Its so vivid in my mind--I'll really never forget it--ever--every single detail!

Amanda&Chris · November 2008

Yikes! I canNOT imagine!

I don't know the background story and don't want you to tell me, no need to go over it again! ((HUGS)) I can NOT imagine.

I'm an ICU nurse. I've given it and it is so scary. You sit there and just hope their rhythm comes back.

I can't imagine if it was one of my girls.
