And I can see he's covered up in a blanket still. I can see the catheter tubing's coming out as it should be. It's secured to the bottom of the bed, the bag, as it should be. So I'm like, where is this urine coming from? And I guess I'll stop here. Do you guys know how catheters get put in and are secured? No, you should tell us.

yeah doesn't it go all the way up into your bladder and there's kind of a balloon on the end yes i figured you would know dax have you had a catheter thank god no shockingly you have yeah for egg freezing it's a small rubber tube goes into the urethra once you get urine back you know you're in the bladder so you can safely inflate the balloon so on the tubing there's a side port and you inflate with 10 mils of saline and it inflates the balloon to like

That is immediately my next thought. It's like, well, this guy's wild. He probably somehow got his oven mitt hands on it and ripped it out. So I pull back the blanket. The catheter is out. It's just like sitting on his bed between his legs. But the balloon is deflated, which is good. I'm just kind of processing this as I'm seeing it. I'm like, well, I guess you didn't rip it out.

And he had chewed off the side port. Because of that, the balloon deflated on its own. So that's good. He didn't rip it right out of his penis. But then he grabbed the catheter in his mouth with his teeth and ripped it out of his penis. Jesus! Why? Why? Why?

Yes, that's what I loved about working there is some of them were there for months and we're acute. So we're supposed to medically stabilize them. And then the ones that need further neurological rehab would go to another facility in our city. But our doctors were really good at like, hey, so-and-so is doing so good. You should hear. But this guy recovered fast.
