Pole Wakes From 19-year Coma

A 65-year-old railwayman who fell into a coma following in an accident in communist Poland regained consciousness 19 years later to find democracy and a market economy, Polish media reported on Saturday.



Wheelchair-bound Jan Grzebski, whom doctors had given only two or three years to live following his 1988 accident, credited his caring wife Gertruda with his revival.

"It was Gertruda that saved me, and I'll never forget it" Grzebski told news channel TVN24.

"For 19 years Mrs Grzebska did the job of an experienced intensive care team, changing her comatose husband's position every hour to prevent bed-sore infections," Super Express reported Dr Boguslaw Poniatowski as saying.

"When I went into a coma there was only tea and vinegar in the shops, meat was rationed and huge petrol queues were everywhere," Grzebski told TVN24, describing his recollections of the communist system's economic collapse.

"Now I see people on the streets with cell phones and there are so many goods in the shops it makes my head spin."

Grzebski awoke to find his four children had all married and produced 11 grandchildren during his years in hospital.

1. Ang akala ko una, "Pole" ung pangalan nung nacomatose. Yun pala, yun ang tawag sa mga taga-Poland! May bago na kong natutunan! :D

2. Napakaswerte ng lalaking to! Biruin mo nabuhay pa pagkatapos mabangga ng tren! Tapos napakamaalaga pa ng asawa niya. Biruin mo halos everyday siguro inaalagaan xa ng asawa niya.. Tapos may taning pa ung buhay niya ng 3 years lang pero halos dalawang dekada na siya nasa coma.

3. 19 years coma?! Una sa lahat, halos wala cgurong mga taong magtiyatiyagang buhayin ung mga nasa coma ng ganun katagal. Tapos after 19 years pa siya nagising! Grabe isang himala talaga ung ngyari dito sa tao na to.

4.Napakalupet ng experience ng taong ito. Bago siya na-coma communist pa ung gobyerno tapos ang gulo pa ng buhay. Tapos paggising niya democratic na ung governement saka maayos na buhay ng mga tao. Sabi nga sa forums na napuntahan ko, para siyang nag Back to the Future! Isipin mo, paggising mo parang nagadvance ka ng 19 years into the future! Ang saya nun! XD

Isa talagang Divine Intervention ang pangyayaring ito..

Tatapusin ko naman ang post ko na ito ng isang quote ulit.

May bago ng version ng Dota, ang 6.44. Kaya naman pumunta ako sa DotaPortal para magdownload sana ng AI version. Pero imbis na magdownload ng map ay napunta ang atensyon ko sa "News" section sa Dotaportal. Tapos dun ko nga nakita itong news na to. Kaya naman meron akong natutunan dito..
