As I told you last week, golf superstar Tiger Woods was incapacitated by prescription drugs in the early morning hours of Friday, Nov. 27 — not by a golf wedge wielded by his wife as some of you insist on believing.
From TMZ.com:
Tiger Woods was admitted to Health Central Hospital the day after Thanksgiving as an overdose.
Sources connected with the hospital tell TMZ the admissions chart lists “OD” and that he was having trouble breathing.
As a trained nurse, I know signs and symptoms very well, and Tigers symptoms were consistent with an overdose of pain killers and sleeping pills, not an assault with a golf club (where are the head wounds?).
it made complete sense to me that Woods’ wife Elin Nordegren would bust out his car windows to get him out of the SUV because he was completely disoriented by the drugs and had no clue where he was going at that time of night.
Woods was probably disoriented as a result of hypoxia — or lack of oxygen to the brain due to over medicating with sleeping pills. Hospital personal intubated Woods (pass an oxygen tube down his throat) to assist his breathing.
Woods was taking prescription Ambien for sleep and the narcotic pain killer Vicodin at the time.
Instead of ridiculing Elin or accusing her of spousal abuse, we should be thanking her for saving his life.
In more Tiger Woods news, apparently, his mother-in-law — Elin’s mother — who just arrived in the country last Friday, was transported to the same hospital last night where Woods was treated after his little accident.
Paramedics responded to a 911 call around 2:55 a.m. last night at Tiger Woods’ address.
There was also a rumor circulating yesterday that Elin moved out of the home she shared with Woods and their two children. But there is no confirmation of that rumor.
So far 10 women have come forward claiming to have had extra-marital affairs with Woods.
