We can hear you talk to us. Hello, I was in a coma for 2 months following an automobile crash. A man hit me and my 3 children head on while going 95mph. I only remember glimpses of the wreck, not the flight to the ER or the ER itself, altho I was told I was making jokes. At first they put me into a drug induced coma while my legs and left arm were in steel cages with rods drilled into me. Then I slipped into my own coma only to was on 9/11/01 then slip back in for 2 more weeks. I had nightmares.
