PortaJohn Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 @Husker_Du can you update us on the Sammy situation? Saw this on HR bman546 HR MVP Today at 1:59 PM #1 Initially, after the surgeries they thought things looked good. But, after a few days, they found out Sammy could not walk without aid, and the new outlook was he would go to a rehab facility, but things were still looking good. It turns out he has lost a lot of weight, and they found out his colon was perforated or torn either from the gunshots, or during a surgery, and he has been excreting/leaking from it. This has caused an infection (peritonitis). They tried to repair his colon, it, but it doesn't sound like they were able to...(?) and there are concerns due to his weight loss and weakness from the infection that he may not be able to handle another surgery just yet. To make matters worse, he has yet to respond to the antibiotics used to treat the infection. The situation is very serious. Let's keep Sammy and the Sasso family in our thoughts and prayers. 2 I Don't Agree With What I Posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatWhiteNorth Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Sending prayers and thoughts to the Sasso's. This is just too terrible. We've got to get a handle on teenage crime. Whatever the priority has been, it should be moved up to near the top of the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPhillips Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Haven't heard this in CBUS. We knew he had colon surgery and had some sort of spinal injury and he was going to have to go to rehabilitation facility. Posted a pic of him and his parents sometime last week. Things can change in a flash though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripnsweep Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Colon surgery is very difficult. A plastic surgeon I knew had asked me about my grandfather who was also a surgeon. I didn't know anything about it but I told him my grandfather's specialty was colon and rectal surgery. My plastic surgeon friend said he could perform his surgery in the dark blindfolded, but doing colon and rectal surgery was extremely delicate and difficult to do. So many things are connected that being off by a millimeter or less could have really severe consequences. Like somebody could die or end up needing a colostomy bag forever.

Husker_Du Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 he said he got the info from an ohio state forum. i can't imagine it was 'made up'. i'd assume it was just misinformation or rumor stuff and not malicious. 1 TBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandolphTJones Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 1 hour ago, MPhillips said: Rarely frequented... Agreed. Not the most reliable sources. Ohiowrestling.net is a good, old school forum with reliable posters, most of which use their real names. It's been pretty quiet on the Sammy front over there though but most of the time it's information posted that isn't just speculation or hearsay.

There are knowledgeable connected posters over there.
