When I was called by my sister and I went to check on my mom I found her laying down and she had already taken the overdose. And when the paramedics assessed her she only had that % of oxygen in her blood.
Hi,
People who attempt suicide usually have mental illness or at least a mental breakdown. In your moms case..Was she on medication? Was she taking anti-depressants?
If you have a low oxygen level..it doesn't take very long before you start to have damageing effects in the brain. So to answer your question...of possible brain damage due to lack of oxygen...the answer is yes. But, there is a lot of factors to consider and each person is different. So, lets hope for the best for your mom.
I am sure she will get the help she needs in the hospital.Right now, that is the best place for her.
TAKE CARE...PRAY FOR YOUR MOM...KEMOSABI.
What does this mean?
"She was found and when she was found she had only a pulse ox of 51."
