00:00 Sarah Silverman's back just in time to weigh in on the difference between a sheriff star and a Jewish star.
00:04 So Sarah Silverman announced on Facebook yesterday that she is lucky to be alive.
00:09 She apparently went to the doctor for a sore throat and ended up having a freak case of epiglottitis.
00:14 Epiglottitis, for those of you who aren't doctors or pre-med, is a condition where the epiglottis,
00:20 which is that flappy thing that makes sure that your food doesn't go down your windpipe, swells and blocks airflow to your lungs.
00:26 Which sounds terrifying.
00:28 In the post she also describes how she had low blood pressure and could not be put under during her recovery as a result.
00:35 She was in and out for several days and continually wrote on a piece of paper, "Was I in an accident?"
00:39 Nope, your own body is just trying to kill you.
00:43 But she apparently kept her sense of humor throughout the entire thing.
00:47 She wrote, "I couldn't speak for a while and I don't remember a lot of my lucid time,
00:52 but Amy told me I stopped a nurse like it was an emergency,
00:55 furiously wrote down a note and gave it to her. It just said, 'Do you live with your mother?' next to a drawing of the penis."
01:00 See, even in situations of life or death,
01:02 dick jokes are always appreciated.
01:05 Terry Moore said, "Sarah Silverman, so glad you survived and are well again.
01:10 I've been a fan ever since you were f***ing Matt Damon. Hugs."
01:12 Ah, memories.
01:16 I'm f***ing Matt Damon.
01:18 John T Gallagher wrote, "Wow, don't know what to say except,
01:21 I'm glad you came through. Big ups to all your doctors and caregivers and your squad of family and friends and f*** your awesome boyfriend."
01:28 What?
01:30 Uh...
01:31 Sure, okay.
