Schiavo-like Woman in Recovery Miracle

I am trying to drop the Schiavo thing... but I have to at least mention this.

Schiavo-like Woman in Recovery Miracle

A severely brain-damaged Kansas woman who couldn't talk or feed herself after a car accident two years ago has inexplicably regained those abilities, confounding the predictions of doctors.

So you may say, ok, but that was only 2 years...

Just before Schiavo's feeding tube was disconnected in March by court order,
another woman, Sarah Scantlin, 38, unexpectedly began recovering from a severe
brain injury that left her speechless and unable to feed herself for 20 years.

Scantlin is now able to eat on her own and answer questions from
physical therapists.

Read more on these two here...
