Woman wakes up from coma after 20 years

Here we have a story of a lady who has been in a coma for apparently more than 20 years, and has now "woke up". What is interesting is that she was able to see and hear while in the comma.
She even knew about the events of 9/11.

For 20 years, Scantlin, the victim of a hit-and-run accident, was cut off from the world, unable to communicate. But it's now clear that - at least some of the time - she could see, she could hear, and she could understand what was going on around her

The doctors apparently told the father that the brain damage was so severe from the accident that, as he stated, "your daughter you had is gone."

But here she is 20 years later, communicating, and rehabilitating.

This whole story is quite interesting, especially inlight of the Terri Schiavo case where there were arguments of whether she was conscious or not.

I fail to see a medical conspiracy here.

The first line of your article makes it clear she was in and out of a SEMI comatose state, and all the doctor said was "the daughter you had is gone."

And 20 years later, she is. Did you read the article? She talks like a 3 year old and they treat her as such.

Besides was there some issue as to pulling feeding tubes ever? A conflict of custody or interests? Did Doctors dressed as ninjas try to kill her in the night? Did the governent step in to try and supercede her guardian's rights? Why is this a conspiracy?

This relates to Priests-For-Republicans SchiavoGate how exactly?

Well no, it's interesting. And I'm glad for her family. I'm sure it has a home in news.
