hello friends,
I and my friend,were returning home this afternoon after some work. Suddenly we saw a group of people in the middle of the road. We thought it may be some accident. So while i was on my bike, my friend got down and went to see what has actually happened.Mean while i too joined her after parking my bike. A middle aged man was hit by a bike ,he fell down, not any major accident, but his nose was hit and it was heavily bleeding .The bleeding was uncontrollable . The blood was flowing as if the water flows from a tap. He was taken to the hospital which is on the other side of the road. My friend after seeing so much blood, just fainted,she was about to fall, i was standing just back of her, so i took her to the bus stop, gave her water.She felt normal only after sitting for few minutes. Hmm it was a bad day.

Good you ride bike. happy. some people cannot stand the blood coming out of a person. I remember my brother fainted when he saw me coming out of operation theatre--(1962).
good you took care of your friend. Hope she is fine. Please check up over phone and ensure she is alright.
Prashu-- have you been able to get another employment? I remember your telling you left a call centre job. blessings.

hi prashu yes She was one of many p eople who cannot stand the sight of blood as it just seems to overwhelm them and they lose consciousness for a short time.sometimes it can take awhile for the nose to stop bleeding.I am glad she seem ed to over come her fear in a short time.It sounds like the poor man who was hit was not hurt badly for it could have been much worse

yes, he was hit on the nose, and it was bleeding badly. we was able to walk, and went to the hospital on the other side of the road, with some ones help. I think he will be fine in few days.

Some people just cannot handle alot of blood. Uncontrollable bleeding would be creepy to see. It must have cut the cartilidge. I am glad this person was taken to the hospital. And you were a good friend to comfort and help your friend as you did. It was an bad day. I agree. I'd be glad to get home.

That is awful that you friend fainted at the sight of another persons blood.I use to faint all the time when I was younger, except I fainted with no warning, as well as no reason.
Good thing that you were there with your friend to look after her.I do feel that there are times when I have seen blood and if anything it made me feel sick, not faint thankfully.

you are little stronger than my friend , that's why you never fainted, but she cant stand the sight of blood, she is too sensitive.

yes the man , was alright, he was able to walk to the hospital by himself, though some people wanted to help him, he said he was okay, but the blood was just not in control, this scene made the people more worried.

That is what happened to my sister when she went to the dentist and saw the blood in her daughter's mouth. some people just can't take the site of blood.
