Drew, I knew about this site from the page in this link:
http://www.answerbag.com/q_view.php/30201(This site is the "Tin Yurl" {lol) link shown on the link above) so I visited here, and then saw your thread.
Did you ever call the hospital and find out about the woman? Did she make it?
If she didn't, well, I'm starting to believe in Quantum Immortality (NOT as a Religion, if anyone was wondering), so she may have survived in any of the infinite other parallel realities.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_ImmortalityI've been through plenty of situations where I could've died but survived nonetheless. I've probably died in other realities, but "teleported" to the current one (without knowing, of course.)
If anyone was wondering, on that site, I'm Shultz, seen here:
