Sometimes when I am at home and the rain is coming down heavy outside and you see multiple flashes of lightning seemingly entering through the window, my neurotic self wonders if you could be struck my lightning while indoors. Well it turns out you could, especially if you’re on the phone – another good reason for me to hate phones. Read the scary story at Yahoo Singapore.

One of my patient’s daughters works as a 911 (US national emergency assistance) operator and was hit by lightning while helping someone else. She survived but spent the next several years re-learning everything her brain had learned while she was alive.
Oh no, that sounds so traumatic. Poor girl. And devastating for her family too.
Oh my goodness, that is just scary.
yeah and we get lots of low lightning in Singapore. It’s the most dangerous for people on a golf course.
