After falling into a coma when her car collided with a school bus over in the United Arab Emirates, Munira Abdulla has finally woken up – 27 years later.
Back in 1991, Ms Abdulla was doing the school run with her four-year-old son Omar when the road accident occurred. Omar left the crash with minor bruises whilst his 32-year-old mother suffered much more serious damage.
Doctors doubted she would ever regain consciousness but 27 years later in a German hospital, she did.
Since waking Ms Abdulla has been able to communicate and even recite parts of the Quran.
Omar – now 32 – told his national newspaper “I never gave up on her because I always had a feeling that one day she would wake up”.
