Icon07 Woman Awakens After 6 Years, Slips Back

A woman who went into a vegetative state in November of 2000 awoke in March 2007 for three days, spoke with her family and a local television station before slipping back. "I'm fine," Christa Lilly told her mother - her first words in eight months. She has awakened four other times for briefer periods.

This has got to be such a difficult situation for the family, and, at the same time, so fascinating for researchers.
