When he was just a boy, Martin Pistorius experienced a 12-year-long coma-like state due to locked-in syndrome, spending three of those years in a vegetative state before gradually regaining consciousness at the age of 16.
Despite being completely paralyzed, except for his eyes, he retained the ability to hear and comprehend everything around him.
On one occasion, he recalled hearing his own mother saying: โI hope you die.โ
Does anyone else just love Connerโs mom? She so sweet and kind but doesnโt talk down to him or treat him less than. Still treats him like an adult and I love the way treats him. She is so precious. ๐
