Yesterday when I was walking to work, passing by the main entrance of the tube, I was shocked with what I saw. A man was lying in the floor, and a guy was over him doing CPR. I passed on the side and the man was with is eyes open and staring at the sky as if a lightning bolt stroked him. He was dead!!!! There was a guy trying to revive him as you can see in the images below. I stayed close in case anything was needed but everyone, I mean everyone was just passing by, not even looking. Simply ignoring that a help was needed. It is a very busy station, I can assure you that hundreds go out the door per minute.
And there I was staring to the attempt to save that man. The ambulance came 2 minutes after and they brought everything. I could not leave the place, I still remember the eyes of the man looking... to empty space!!
And 15 minutes... yes 15 minutes... after the first guy I saw started the CPR the man started to breath!!!
Even though I've been working in hospitals for some time, it is the first time I actually see a life saving... and that I see someone dead and then alive...
I was shocked with the selfish of this world but was overwhelmed with a life saving!!

Olha, aqui uma velhinha esteve 9 anos morta em casa sem ninguém dar por ela!! :P
Se fosse na Tugalandia, ja estavam a tentar levanta-lo e leva-lo para o hospital ali ao lado!Ou entao a sufocar o homem de tanta proximidade...mas pelo menos fariam alguma calor humano:)
