Inspiring Story:Teen Comes Back From The Dead

By
Real Estate Appraiser with Michael S. Bolton,Inc.

This story should probably be more appropriately titled "Amazing Story." Steven Thorpe from Warwickshire, England was declared brain dead after a car accident. His doctors recommended that his parents pull the plug, and even recommended donating his organs.

His father pushed for yet another opinion, this time from a private doctor, Julia Piper, who was able to detect some very slight brain waves, and said there was a slim chance of recovery. The hospital brought Steven out of his chemically induced coma, and amazingly he started to recover. He left the hospital 7 weeks after being brought out of the coma; now that's pretty AWESOME!
