Why a big gap ?

There's a huge gap here because during this time Eric was medically sedated and paralyzed. He was placed on something called ECMO. ECMO is basically a process like dialysis, but for your lungs. It filters the blood out of your body and through a tube into an artificial lung machine that is outside of the body and adds oxygen and removes co2 before reentering back into the body.




Thanks
