A woman who should have froze to death, but didn’t

January 11, 2009

How many people walk out of the hospital after presenting with a body temperature dipping into the 60’s?

Well, this Minnesota woman miraculously survived her hypothermia (via Dr. Wes), after being found down in her driveway in the bitter cold.

Which goes to show there’s some truth in that old ER saying, “You’re not dead until you’re warm and dead.”
