Former French international has died at the age of 73 after being in a coma for 39 years.

 

He went into surgery on 17th March 1982 after suffering a ligament rupture. However, an error by the anesthesiologist caused him to suffer a bronchospasm which starved his brain of oxygen and causing him to slip into a coma.

 

A court of law adjudicated on the case in the mid 90’s. Incredibly, the anesthesiologist and a trainee were given just a one month suspended sentence and a fine of €850.

 

His wife refused to euthanise him and continued tending to his needs until his death.

 

Amazing story.

Incredible time, eh.

I remember a world political figure a good while back was something like 18 years.

 

Anyway, your man should be in the Guinness Book of Records going by Google.

Read about this earlier. Hadn’t ever heard the story which I thought was surprising, usually you hear about these things.

Same. A mate of mine was talking about it on WhatsApp, so I looked it up.

Just realised I was born 4 weeks after he went in for his operation. That’s crazy!

That would be a complete head **** waking up to find your 27 years older and your 4 year old son is 31.

 

 


Even just seeing how much the world has changed would screw your head up.

Or being a Hibee and waking up and missing them eventually wining the Scottish Cup. The shock would probably put you back into a coma.

Absolutely. Imagine trying to get your head around the internet, phones and social media.

"OMG....I need to film this for a tik tok"

"What's tik tok?"

Tik tok explained.

Pulls own plug.

 

Probably also "what's OMG?" 😄
