Reddit Rants and Rages: Oh, DO Tell Me About My Life


Miracle Girl: Reddit Rants and Rages: Oh, DO Tell Me About My Life

A recent tribalistic, Reddit rake across the coals reminded me why I'm glad I'm part of the Patheos family instead.
On what planet is it okay to tell my mom that she overeats -- especially when I stated that she doesn't?

Oh, Planet Reddit.

You do realize that you're talking to actual people, right?

    You've probably heard by now about a Q&A web service that's caught fire among tech junkies and marketing gurus. But is Quora worthy of the hype it has received? Quora describes itself as "a continually improving collection of questions and answers created, edited, and organized by everyone who uses it." It's a place for inquiring minds to find answers to their burning questions. And it's a hub for experts (and aspiring experts) to lend their knowledge on topics ranging from basketball to social media marketing, and everything in between. quora

Coma Girl

Not a miracle recovery, but a miracle of modern medicine

In 2013 I fell into a six-week coma and nearly died after I contracted legionella. The Legionnaire's disease was in turn triggered by immunosuppression caused by the prednisone I was taking for my rare autoimmune disease, dermatomyositis.

I suffered a series of strokes on both sides of my brain when the sepsis caused my blood pressure to plummet. I fell into a deep coma. My kidneys and lungs began to fail, as my body was began dying one organ at a time. My doctors told my loved ones to give up hope for my full recovery. They expected me to die, and even if I somehow lived, I would remain a vegetable or at best left so hopelessly brain-damaged that I would never be same. But unbeknownst to them, while they were shining lights in my eyes and shaking their heads, I was telling them in my coma-dream--my secular version of a near-death experience--to leave me alone because I was trying to get back to sleep. I was experiencing what is known as covert cognition, the subject of my Skeptical Inquirer article "Covert Cognition: My So-Called Near-Death Experience," which appeared in their July/August issue.

But it wasn't a miracle--despite what so many continue to believe--that I recovered so fully. I owe my life not to God, but the miracles of modern medicine, as well as the nature of the watershed-area brain damage I suffered, as I detailed in my article and in this blog.
