Woman Emerges from Coma After 6 Years
Colorado Woman Emerges from Coma After 6 Years, Later, Returns to Unconsciousness: Says doctor of her awakening, “This is a miracle. This is all mystical and I can’t explain it.”
Station KKTVout of Denver, Colorado, has published a report on Christa Lilly who, after falling into a vegetative coma six years ago, suddenly re-awakened. Lilly’s neurologist, Dr. Randall Bjork, said: “This is a miracle. This is all mystical and I can’t explain it.” Back in November 2000, the Colorado Springs native suffered a heart attack and stroke, and was diagnosed as being in a “vegetative” state, with open eyes. She was kept alive by a feeding and hydration tube while unconscious, according to a report by LifeSiteNews. On Sunday, Christa awoke and began talking.
Christa spoke with reporters during the time she was awake, saying, “I think it’s wonderful. It makes me so happy.” She was having trouble re-learning to speak, but was reportedly “eating cake.” Then, on March 7th, Christa Lilly relapsed into her unconscious state, just as suddenly as she had awoken.
