Husband’s Angry Outburst Awakens Woman from a Coma
Yvonne Sullivan endured a very problematic pregnancy only to lose her newborn son during a traumatic premature birth last July. Blood poisoning and septic shock caused Sullivan, 28, to lapse into a coma that lasted for two weeks, prompting doctors to consider removing her from life-support systems since her vital organs had shut down and she was 100% dependent upon a ventilator.
Her husband, Dominic, 37, had remained at her bedside during the entire time, tenderly offering comfort by holding her hand, brushing her hair, and talking lovingly to her of family, friends, and their 2006 honeymoon in Cyprus. By the time doctors suggested removing the life-support machines, however, he had had enough of it all and gave her “a bloody good rollicking,” admonishing her to “stop mucking around” and start fighting. Begging her to come back to him and her 8-year-old son, Ryan, from a previous marriage, Dom left the room for a while to get some air.
Within two hours after her husband’s angry outburst, Sullivan started to breathe on her own for the first time since the heartbreaking delivery two weeks earlier. Five days later, doctors removed her ventilator and she miraculously regained consciousness.
Today Sullivan is fine. She doesn’t remember exactly what her husband said to her that fateful day but does admit she never liked it when he told her off. She claims his heated words made something inside click and begin to fight again.
The Sullivans live in Westonsuper-Mare, Somerset, England. Sullivan gave birth at St. Michael’s Hospital in Bristol but was transferred to Bristol Royal Infirmary when she became comatose.

This sounds similar to my grandmother and grandfather. My grandfather was in the hospital and they were also ready to take him off life support. My grandmother said they couldn’t do it, he spent only another week in that hospital as he started regaining his life back after my grandmother yelled at him and told him in not so many nice words that she couldn’t do it herself and she need him.
amazing what the power of love can do, I only wish I was able to find that with some one…
it’s like when a blind girl hit her head on something and fell, went asleep, next day had her vision back since she was born (she was bout 13-14 yrs old)
not love, just god!
I wouldnt blame it on god, it makes sense that people would come back when something they didnt like happend, wouldnt it start a reaction in a part of the brain usually left alone in that situation? eh but whatev blame who u want
*rolls eyes* Not God, Science
*opens eyes* god and science aren’t opposites. “science” has become its own religion.
Scientology is a religion. Science its self is not, it takes no faith to believe in science, science consists of well formed theories and proven facts. Unless you want to play crazy and suggest that science is just one big hoax to try and disprove religion * rolls eyes*
It does take faith to believe in science because much of it is based on theories which are merely “credited” beliefs. Science and religion both work to answer important questions that human arise. Those who turn to science find that it’s answers make sense, just as a religious person (not just christians, but rather of any religion) would turn to their spiritual beliefs. Therefore making science, a religion- a source, a well of answers to life’s seemingly impossible questions.
