Title: [O/T] Doctors save man with vodka drip Post by: kinboshi on October 11, 2007, 02:21:33 PM http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/7037443.stm
;gobsmacked; Quote Australian doctors have kept an Italian tourist alive by feeding him vodka through a drip for three days, medical staff in Queensland say. The 24-year-old man, who had swallowed a poison in an apparent suicide attempt, was treated while in a coma. Doctors set up the drip after running out of medicinal alcohol, used as an antidote to the poison. Medical staff said the patient had made a full recovery, and the hangover had worn off by the time he woke up.
