Ping to a thread by OB1kNOb on a woman waking up after six years.

Doctors call it a miracle. A Southern Colorado woman was in a vegetative state for more than six years, but now, she's talking for the first time. She spoke exclusively to 11 News.

Christa Lilly had a heart attack then a stroke. That's the last thing she remembers. It was November of 2000, when Lilly slipped into a vegetative state, which is essentially like a coma, but with the eyes open. Lilly was unconscious and unaware of her surroundings. Now, for the first time in six and a half years, she's awake, alert, and talking. "I think it's wonderful. It makes me so happy," Lilly tells us.

Ping to thread by wagglebee, a different thread on the case of Christa Lilly. Troll warning! Trolls and misinformed who have not invaded Terri Dailies threads are showing up at the thread above I pinged to and are likely to show up at the wagglebee thread as well, recycling the tired arguments exhausted over the last two years. It is kind of embarrassing on their behalf to watch them puff their mantras as if they don't realize it is so old hat. They don't realize how foolish they look.
