SS - As a layman, I too appreciate your efforts. The lesson learned about replacement fluid volumes was worth reading in itself. I'll add it to the data base. The secondary (wholly unintended I'm sure) lesson that I passed to a coworker who is learning to shoot (defensively) is the sub-par lethality of pistol ammunition. I've been emphasizing multiple rounds, assess, and repeat as required to ensure threat "reduction". I had already referenced Doc T's comment about chances of survival if they make it to the OR, now you provide photographic evidence. Serendipity. I hope your patient maximizes the second chance he's been given by your skill and the good lord's grace.
