QuoteParents save son by each giving him a hug
I was intrigued, so I clicked through, only to find out I had misread it. (http://www.thelocal.de/society/20120913-44941.html)
I should probably sleep more. :lulz:
Oh yeah, the real story is actually pretty fucking touching and amazing. But not as lulzy as my misreading of it.
That story was pretty cool! If I had a kid I'd do the same if it had any chance at all of working. The kid was very fortunate to have compatibility from both parents. I am also abstractly curious as to whether or not the transplant lungs will produce proper mucus or if the cystic fibrosis will occur and progress in the new lungs.
When I saw "parents save son by each giving him a hug" I was like WTF? Now THAT's a placebo effect! :lol:
My first thought was like, what, was he waving a gun at an armed robber and his parents hugged him down? :lulz:
Right? Keep your kids from going over the edge. Hug them more! It saves lives.
