    It's Only a Flesh Wound

    One-armed legless man bashes male nurse | News.com.au

    It took two people, the nurses and a large security guard to tackle the angry patient and eventually restrain him.

    The NT News understands the 50-year-old patient assistant carer was trying to handle the disabled man when the man punched the carer repeatedly with his good arm and flailed his stumps angrily.

    One wonders about the reasons why the patient has only one arm and no legs!

    If it was a traumatic cause, then the patient is likely suffering from PTSD so likely not responsible for actions at the time. The other possible cause is peripheral vascular disease leading to gangrene, either the toxins or uncontrolled diabetes possible scenarios accounting for is behavior.

    IMHO What ever the cause, the whole situation is rather tragic and not really funny at all.

    As in Police work, this sort of situation comes with the job working in health and rather different from the unacceptable situation of a drunk, drug intoxicated or aggressive person abusing the staff in the emergency department.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    Could be a number of reasons...or just ****ed. Kerry Gibson, the one armed Magpies rugby league player from the 80's could punch on with the best of them.

    Moving from stumps to scat, you probably know of or have dealt with the **** throwers....Mr. Harris and his pal in all things scat, Mr. Shields? Now there are two examples of what is wrong with mental health in this state.

    mental health in this state, unfamiliar term, what mental health system in this state - oops I didn't say that!

    Regarding others, Al Zeimer and his mates like GPI have a lot to answer for!
