Remember my friend who graduated from a coma to a "persistent vegetative state"? Remember how her brain was supposedly hopelessly scrambled? She said a word today. A nurse asked her a question and she opened her mouth and said, "yes".
it gave me chills when I heard. I mean, the last time I saw her she was just staring into space and yawning occasionally. Her eyes looked glazed, almost like a fish. When she closed her mouth after a yawn, her teeth would clamp onto her bottom lip until someone came and adjusted her bite. This development is nothing short of astounding.

That's such great news. Terrific.
