weatherman90 7 Posted January 7, 2006 Here is a picture of him just out of surgery. He is looking a little too cheery, the medication side effects perhaps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eejit 9 Posted January 7, 2006 Great news folks! There is a chance that he may live out the year after all. Now that the bleeding in his brain has been stopped he could mimic the demise of his great friend Yasser Arafat by speading his last period on earth in a vegetative state. Here's the infrom from CBC: Last Updated Sat, 07 Jan 2006 18:40:37 ESTCBC News A surgeon treating Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon says his chances for survival are "very high" now that doctors have stopped bleeding in his brain, but he could be left with cognitive problems.

Windsor 2,233 Posted January 8, 2006 According to 'The Nostradamus Code' a Middle Eastern leader will die around the time World War Three begins. Incidently, the War will begin when a 'Young, dark' middle Eastern leader nukes New York. So if the prediction is correct I'm guessing Ariel Sharon will die and the President of Iran will bomb New York. By the way, the War takes place between 2006-2012. Too bad it's all a lot of pish.....

Entropy 5 Posted January 8, 2006 Why on earth were the doctors making such heroic efforts to save his life knowing that he wasn't going to have any higher cognitive functions or any basic ability to look after himself? This is simple cruelty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted January 8, 2006 If he dies, thats 2 hits for my derby deadpool in the first week! By the way, has anyone noticed that his name consists of two female names? More like one female name, and one washing powder name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grobler 35 Posted January 8, 2006 yeah....good news this...lets hope his doctors can keep him breathing for a year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted January 9, 2006 Sharon showing "...some sort of activity in his brain" (I set 'em up, you tap 'em in...) However, the fact that he is able to breathe is encouraging, Hadassah Hospital director Dr Shlomo Mor-Yosef said. "This is the first sign of some sort of activity in his brain," he said. Nonetheless, the prime minister remains hooked up to a ventilator. The neurosurgeon who operated on the 77-year-old prime minister, Jose Cohen, has said that although his chances of survival are "very high", Mr Sharon will not be able to continue as prime minister.

Canadian Paul 97 Posted January 9, 2006 The risk of another stroke at this time is probably fairly high though, since the focus is now on recovery instead of prevention I presume. I think perhaps this may linger on for a while yet... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Die 63 Posted January 10, 2006 Just how many eggs did you count, Lady Die? Too many I'm afraid. I'm still hopeful though .... there are another 355 days for him to have a relapse or another stroke. Some encouraging stuff here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest dave Posted January 10, 2006 this could be merely local stimuli caused by pain sensations rather thasn brain activity..ive been told by a good mate of mine whos dad is a neuro surgeon that Sharons chances of survival are slim and if he does recover he will be a vegetable aftert the brain trauma he suffered.The likelihood is he will die when he comes out of the coma in a few days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canadian Paul 97 Posted January 10, 2006 Perhaps if Sharon doesn't make it to 2007, we can consider his son? I mean, there's genetic, and then there's milking the genetics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banshees Scream 110 Posted January 11, 2006 Sharon is now out of 'immediate' danger. Looks like he is going to pull through....for now. Yes after reading the daily paper it seems Sharon might have lucked out surviving this massive stroke. Still no guarentee he'll pull through but he's now out matching the odds.

Yes after reading the daily paper it seems Sharon might have lucked out surviving this massive stroke. Still no guarentee he'll pull through but he's now out matching the odds. Always a possibility of another stroke too. He got one in less than three weeks after the first one, and he was being cautious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
