Weird Life: NT woman wakes during surgery but is paralysed and unable to scream

A woman says she will have nightmares for the rest of her life after an horrific operation gone wrong at the Alice Springs Hospital.

During the ordeal Rebecca Jones, 24, claims she woke up during abdominal surgery and could feel every cut of the surgeon’s knife, the Centralian Advocate reports.

But she was unable to scream for help as the anaesthesia had paralysed her.

Ms Jones said she woke up just as doctors were about to start the full operation. She was paralysed and could not open her eyes, but could hear and feel everything.

“I was very aware of what was happening to me,” she said.

“I thought the doctors had woken me up because the surgery was over – I quickly realised that was not the case.

“It first hit me when I tried to take a breath. I couldn’t move and started to panic. I could feel them cutting me open. I can’t describe how it felt. I’ve never felt anything like it before.

“I was freaked out. Then I actually managed to move my hand and someone in the room noticed it.

“He said, ’she’s just moved her hand’. But they kept going. I was trying to scream, to do anything.”

The hospital’s general manager Vicki Taylor has refused to meet with Ms Jones over the issue and refused to be interviewed.

Bizarre Video: Worm Removed From Human Eye

Loa Loa worms (also known as the “eye worm”) are classified as filarial worms, meaning they thrive in human tissue. The Loa Loa worm is also called the “eye worm” because they often migrate through the eye and surrounding subsurface areas. At one time, prior to the 1920s, loa loa worm infections occurred in the United States. Today, however, they mainly infect people who are native to Sudan, and those who live in or near Central and West Africa’s swamps and rain forests.

Raw Medical Video: Open Heart Bypass Surgery

Open heart (coronary artery bypass, or CABG) surgery is performed in order to reroute, or “bypass,” blood around blocked arteries, thereby improving the supply of oxygen-rich blood to the heart. Surgeons usually use an artery from the chest wall to construct the “detour” around the blocked part of the artery. Veins from the legs are also used.

Psychic Surgery

Psychic “surgery” is a type of non-surgery performed by a non-medical healer. The healer fakes an incision by running a finger along the patient’s body, apparently going through the skin without using any surgical instruments.

The healer pretends to dig his hands into the patient’s innards and pretends to pull out ‘tumors’. Using trickery, the healer squirts animal blood from a hand-held balloon while discarding items such as chicken livers and hearts. The patient then goes home to die, if he or she was really dying, or to live if there was nothing seriously wrong in the first place.

The following videos are showing diffrent psychic surgeries, mainly from Indonesia and Philippines.
