Gosh, I would have loved to have been reared in TX!Wow - that is fascinating. Terrifying but fascinating. Thanks for sharing your experience. As a former psych/neuro NP I totally agree that some kind of head injury could have happened without any sign being left behind. A coup-countercoup (and probable subsequent SAH) injury can occur even without the head coming into contact with anything.
When I was young and invincible, I'd drive from Houston to Dallas all of the time and stop smoking (cigarettes) an hour before I got to my parents' house. Looking back, I'm sure I reeked but totally thought I was getting away with it. I'd also come home from high school gatherings completely baked out of my gourd, tell my parents I was really tired, and go off to my room. Even if Jason's parents were waiting up for him it would be very easy to avoid a long conversation as to not show the extent of impairment.
It would seem totally logical to the still practically adolescent brain to light one up and "relax" on the drive home. I haven't read all of the posts but it's possible that he took some kind of speedy substance before he started on his way so late at night? Maybe he wanted to come down a bit during the last part of the drive so smoked a little something. Usually this goes off without a hitch, but who knows what he was smoking. I'm so happy to have legal weed where I live, because you're highly unlikely to come across some contaminated stuff. As a high schooler growing up in Tx, the majority of our mj came from the Mexican Mafia and was (obviously) not regulated or tested at all. How I survived my younger years...there but for the grace of God go I!
Your post reminded me of something re SAH.
A second bleed can occur soon after the first.
I remember having the argument with my neurosurgeon about how I'd be absolutely fine once I got home to the animals.
I thought I'd explained my rationale so well when he shot back, he didn't like me, 'if you do you will have a second bleed within a few hours and you will not survive'
Again we have no idea whether he had a head injury or any injury or smoked spiked weed or what happened..
i have a feeling the new search will be successful.
Hopefully they will identify the hallucinogen and get an idea of where it might have taken him.. how far and how fast.
It's a big territory.
