What happens when you eat half raw chicken?
A family member of mine bought some Church's Chicken, where I had grabbed the last one. I was so hungry I just keep eating and saw towards when I pulled the bone apart, blood was still there. There was a lot of blood it was so gross. The parts I was eating I believe were cooked but I don't know about the meat towards the end where that blood was. I mean there was a gushing amount of blood, I think the chicken was something attached to a wing part. But either way I'm a bit scared, what happens? Will I get really sick and die? I had no idea there was blood had I known I wouldn't have eaten it, please tell me what will happen or what I should do thank you?
I ate all of it but the part where I saw the blood I spit some of it out. I did eat most of the cooked part but still where the blood was, was in a bottom hidden area. I had to break the bone to get in where the little chicken meat was.

Depends on if there was any bacteria. If not, then nothing will happen. If so, you'll probably puke and get diarrhea.

I got salmonella once from eating poorly cooked chicken (I'm color blind, and didn't use a meat thermometer). My cat got sick too. I was in bed 2 or 3 days with severe puking and diarrhea that was completely out of control. For a young healthy person, you feel like you're gonna die, but usually everything turns out fine. You want to prevent dehydration. I think it took 12 hours to get sick.
HOWEVER, not all chicken is contaminated, and just because it's red inside doesn't mean it was raw. Apparently chickens are slaughtered much younger than they used to be, and the marrow bleeds out more or something like that (I read it someplace and forgot the details).
Raw meat won't hurt you. It's modern farming with overcrowding, and dirty, careless butchering practices that allow all this bacteria to get on the chicken that is the problem.
Just in case, make arrangements for severe vomiting and diarrhea. sleep on a couch near the bathroom and keep a bucket at hand. NO KIDDING. It is horrific, if you get it. Most healthy people do not need to go to the doctor, and you can't get there anyway, without destroying the interior of your car.
PS I always use a meat thermometer when prepping chicken at home. I think, based on your additional details, taht it was a marrow issue.

Unless the chicken was old, you're fine!
Today we have so many phobias about eating, that we don't realize our food is pretty safe.
Even if the meat had bacteria on it, you would have to eat medium to large size quantity of it.
I promise you will not die! At the worst you might get a bellyache.
Relax :) and take care!

Nothing unless it's contaminated. If it is contaminated with Salmonella or other bacteria your body will be exposed to it. If you aren't use to raw meat, aka you don't eat sushi or medium rare steaks, you might get a tummy ache but that's it if it's not contaminated. Just monitor your health. If you have any sever symptom seek medical attention. Stomach ache and diarrhea doesn't need attention unless it goes on for more than a day.

If you're going to get sick, it will happen within about an hour of eating it. If you do start to get sick, go to a doctor immediately. The sooner you catch it, the easier it is to treat it.
