Yikes!!!
Yeah, by that time adrenalin and endorphins must have almost replaced the blood circulating. Having been in that "survival" mode for less painful reasons, I will agree that the mind works completely differently then.

I remember laughing at someone trying to help me once until they started laughing, though I knew I was bleeding out. Not what I would consider a rational reaction, but since it calm them down enough to really help me and probably save my life, I guess it was what was needed.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
