Diabetic coma

I am so sorry to hear that! It's a good thing she had you around to find her. I can't speak to the length of coma - you'll need a medical answer for that. I wouldn't worry about the straight toes - it's an indication she feels it! Think about when you have a foot cramp - you straighten your foot out and toes. It's probably something like that.

Long, long story made short… I injured my shoulder somehow last year - during Physical Therapy I believe, on something called a shark cage - stretched per directions (hanging by my hands from a bar and leaning away from a side bar to stretch shoulder and neck muscles) and woke up that night (3am) with my arm shaking in painful spasms - shooting pain throug...
