Editor s note: A spokesperson for Northside Hospital sent this note to 11Alive in regards to the $55,000 bill mentioned below. The patient has not yet been billed for any of the care he received. On 4/21/21, Northside sent him a statement of charges that would be billed to his insurance. Afterward, we discovered a charge error of $29,041, and that has since been removed. We submitted the correct claim to his insurance provider on 4/30/21. We apologize for this miscommunication. His account now is pending insurance payment.

That’s how close the Texas electric grid came to a complete collapse.
The startling detail from a historic winter storm was revealed last week as hundreds of thousands of Texans were still suffering from a lack of power and heat amid bitterly cold temperatures.
As the state’s electric grid managers rushed to get the lights back on, they also defended their handling of the crisis, insisting that if they had not initiated a series of purposeful power outages at the height of the storm, the entire grid could have spiraled into a monthslong “catastrophic” blackout.
