Rushing to the Hospital
Dr. Mainali remembers this moment like it was yesterday. She, too, was dead asleep when her phone buzzed. “One of my residents who was on call at night texted me in the morning and says ‘you won’t believe what I saw today,’ and I was like ‘what happened?’ and she said ‘Tisha is opening her eyes and she’s following simple commands.'”
Tisha Was Confused
Naturally, Tisha was confused when she woke up. She didn't remember going to the hospital at all. In fact, she didn't even know what day it was. The nurse told her that she had been in a coma for seven months. Tisha was shocked. “I was shocked and just appalled that I literally had been asleep since seven months and then I just woke up out of nowhere.”
