medical staff does not have protocols for this at all. security wouldnt be involved.

Only after he left did I realize that our security detail had REAL problems with the gentlemen that were there to pick up the patient. I won't go into much detail here other than to say I still have no idea who they were, but they were dressed in nice suits and seemed to have an official sense. The patient exited with them under no duress and apparently entered a car with them.


The one thing we agree on is that the OP is not being truthful about himself or his story.

I'm simply evaluating the OPs own account.

[edit on 4/6/08 by enigmania]


I think we can, I believe my post makes this very simple for every one


Also, the original poster claimed there was a new section/facility...well even the new sections has no on site psych type units...and there is a mental health unit..guess what though...its for Outpatients only for drug and alcohol youths..therefore this would require a discharge from ER then a transfer as an outpatient from home.

For the life of me, having myself worked in hospital for many years...cant find any information on this hospital in Boulder, even the foothill site and all its consulting suites..any thing at all about ER Psych Consultants....Irony, no.

Logic? Yes.

Hoax. Yes.

I can promise you this - I'm not here to be sensationalistic or to cause a scene. I sincerely want to hear from others that may have had this experience. He alluded that others have, in fact, experienced this (perhaps I'm giving away my "means to an end" for posting here).

I guess more than anything I'm just very bothered and haven't talked with anyone about this so far.




Yes, I too, have had this experience. From "scalp lac's " side of the picture.


I have not had an "episode" in a number of years, and certainly nothing as dramatic as "scalp lac's"; Just incidences wherein I've "known" certain facts and been able to relate specific "events" in people's lives to them while having no explicable way to have had such intimate knowledge of them.

I do not know exactly how it works. It is not a skill per se, although there are elements I am in "control" of. When "it" works, I generally need to be close proximity to the "target", but not touching them: the physical contact seems to "overload" me, causing the "spell" to break.

I too had a "trainer", now long deceased, and not connected to any "official agency. But our training sessions were unfortunately cut short due to his illnes and eventual death. He too, oddly enough, lived in Colorado: Colorado Springs, specifically, for a time many years ago.


The thing that most caught My attention regarding your post was your description of your patient's "flat" expression as "he" revealed these things to you. I can relate from my own experiences.

There is a certain feeling of "calm detachment" while "in trance", an emotional state, not unpleasant, but requiring a heightened level of concentration to maintain. Perhaps this is a clue to the desire to not be touched while "hot'?



I confess, I've only read the first page of this thread, so I may be way off base with this info. Unfortunately, I must be off to work now, so more reading will have to wait.

I did want to reply, Doctor, if for no other reason than to "unburden" myself.

Thank you for the opportunity.

Yes thats a good observation, this leads us that this definitely occurred at the Boulder Community Main Hospital campus as this sits close to the Diagonal highway mentioned. (see link below for map)

Also,

Bouldercounty.org lists no major accidents in 2008 on the Diagonal highway also nothing on Google.

Close this thread already mods.

Not to lend any credence to this very interesting story. But Boulder Community Hospital does offer psychiatric services and has 2 ERs.

I thought it would be odd for such a large community to not have these services. It would be rough on patients to have to be drug clear down here to Denver for such.

also lets take into consideration this point by BoulderMD



I was trying very hard to put the things he'd stated last out of my mind. He then appeared at the doorway of the exam room and stated that he "had to go." I asked him to please return to the bed and we all began to approach him. He walked toward us and simply said, "Against medical advice."


So you never touched the patient with Scap Lac at all? This seems highly unlikley. These are seriosu incidents. Look at this blog posted by an ambulance officers bout a Scalp Lac, its very graphic



I grab the hem of one of the towels and start untwizzling the fabric from his head, the towel’s wet with blood and as I ease it away I immediately realise why his face is drooping.

A chasm of skull grins up at me.The laceration starts at his left eyebrow, travels straight back across his crown and finishes two inches away from the top of his left ear. At its widest point the gap in his scalp is four inches across, a pink creamy expanse of bone hits Norrie and I at some primal point, you don’t need medical training to know that you’re not supposed to see that much of anyone’s skull.



traumaqueen.net...



Unless he has been lightly patched up by the ambulance members to stop the bleeding, this man would have been in no condition to do any thing. Also, you claimed he was on no drugs> Yet this medical forum clearly states the use of anesthetics on Scalp Lacs on patients once in the hospital by majority or at least some thing to numb the pain....
forums.studentdoctor.net...

I really doubt that this patient could have just walked off as you so put 'against medical advice'.....what about disconnecting the drip? what about the bandages on his face? What type of Scalp Lac?

Also if you where seriously worried about your identity, why would you give such close details to where you work....?? You seemed frightened of the suits that took away the patient...yet it sounded like he voluntarily left.

This is a Hoax. You are a clever writer, stick to school and write a book, would be a great read or a day time movie for senior citizens.
