HE'S LUCKY MIKE SCHIAVO COULDN'T BENEFIT BY HIS DEATH:

Patient trapped in a 23-year 'coma' was conscious all along (Allan Hall, 23rd November 2009, Daily Mail)

A man thought by doctors to be in a vegetative state for 23 years was actually conscious the whole time, it was revealed last night.

Student Rom Houben was misdiagnosed after a car crash left him totally paralysed.

He had no way of letting experts, family or friends know he could hear every word they said.
