General Hospital’s Lulu Is A “Walking” Miracle

Lulu Spencer is finally awake on General Hospital, but honestly, her awakening defied medical science — big time. Let us go through everything wrong with Lulu’s great awakening.

Four Years In A Coma…But Back On Her Feet

Didn’t Lulu have a ventilator not long ago? In fact, that ventilator was cause for a hospital investigation as someone seems to have tampered with it just before her surgery. However, after a liver transplant, Lulu is ventilator-free. The show told us that her vitals had improved, but after four years in a coma and major surgery, shouldn’t Lulu have been hooked up to…something? Let’s not even think about her surgical incision that looked like it was held together with nothing but glue.

Not only was there no ventilator, but there was also no feeding tube How did Lulu get nourishment for the last four years comatose and unable to move? Make it make sense, GH.

Then, there is Lulu moving. That must have been some physical therapy Lulu had during her years in a coma. Most people who spend even weeks in a coma are weak, but not our Lulu. No sir. Rather than waking from a coma, Lulu seemed to wake from a nap. She opened her eyes and was able to move her arm to rub them within seconds.

Lulu was even able to get out of bed and put two feet in front of the other. Yes, she quickly fell to the floor, but she got up and climbed right back onto the bed. After four years in a coma. She then rubbed her legs as if she had a temporary case of pins and needles after sitting in the same spot for a half hour.

For a soap with the word hospital in the name, GH really needs to hire a medical consultant when doing hospital stories.
