be resected. More often, the intussusception can be reduced by
laparoscopy, whereby the segments of intestine are pulled apart by
forceps.[citation needed]

[edit]Prognosis
Intussusception may become a medical emergency if not treated early,
as it will eventually cause death if not reduced. In developing countries
where medical hospitals are not easily accessible, especially when the
occurrence of intussusception is complicated with other problems,
death becomes almost inevitable. When intussusception or any other
severe medical problem is suspected, the person must be taken to a
hospital immediately.[citation needed]
The outlook for intussusception is excellent when treated quickly, but
when untreated it can lead to death within 2–5 days. Fast treatment is
a necessity, because the longer the intestine segment is prolapsed the
longer it goes without bloodflow, and the less effective a non-surgical
reduction will be. Prolonged intussusception also increases the
likelihood of bowel ischemia and necrosis, requiring surgical resection.

 Is the invagination or telescoping of a portion of


the intestine into a adjacent, more distal section of
theintestine causing mechanical obstruction.
 The cause may be idiopathic (unknown but following a viral
infection); lead point (change in the mucosa from another
condition such as cystic fibrosis, Meckel’sdiverticulum, or
hematoma); or post operative.
 It occurs in children younger than age 3, most commonly
ages 5 to 10 months.
 Without prompt treatment, necrosis of the involved
segment leads to shock, perforation, andperitonitis.
LIFE IS A BOAT
Rie Fu It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I’m all the way back where I come from
Nobody knows who I really am. It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
I never felt this empty before. It feels like I’m all the way back where I belong
And if I ever need someone to come along,
Whos going to comfort me and keep me strong? A window breaks, down a long, dark street
And a siren wails in the night
We are all rowing the boat of fate. But I’m alright, ‘cause I have you here with me
The waves keep on coming and we cant escape. And I can almost see, through the dark there is light
But if we ever get lost on our way,
The waves would guide you through another day. Well, if you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I’ve waited for your touch
Dooku de iki o shiteru toomei ni natta mitai (Far away, Im And if you knew how happy you are making me

[Chorus Hayley Williams]


Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now) (wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now) (wish right now)

[Verse 1 B.o.B]
Yeah
I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
To go back to a place much simpler than this
Cause after all the partyin’ and smashin’ and crashin’
And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
And when you’re staring at that phone in your lap
And you hoping but them people never call you back
But that’s just how the story unfolds
You get another hand soon after you fold
And when your plans unravel
And they sayin’ what would you wish for
If you had one chance
So airplane airplane sorry I’m late
I’m on my way so don’t close that gate
If I don’t make that then I’ll switch my flight
And I’ll be right back at it by the end of the night

[Chorus Hayley Williams]

[Verse 2 B.o.B]
Somebody take me back to the days
http://www.elyricsworld.com/airplanes_lyrics_b.o.b..html
Before this was a job, before I got paid
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Yeah back when I was tryin’ to get a tip at subway
And back when I was rappin’ for the hell of it
But now a days we rappin’ to stay relevant
I’m guessin that if we can make some wishes outta airplanes
Then maybe yo maybe I’ll go back to the days
