Hospitals will nearly let you die these days.
Some friends of mine were out Jeep riding. When they stopped, my buddy got out to grab something out of one of the Jeeps and another unoccupied Jeep rolled down a small hill and hit him from behind. The two bumpers tore large chunks out of the front and back of his upper leg. They rushed him to meet an ambulance and told the EMT about his massive blood loss. I believe "gallon" was the term they used.
Five days later I went to visit him in the hospital and he looked terrible, white as a sheet. They never gave him any blood. Later that evening they gave him 4 units of blood and he looked back to normal for the most part. Amazing that they would let him sit there like that for 5 days.
