    My wife was telling me about this yesterday afternoon, and at first I didn't reslise the woman has been in a coma for ten years, I wrongly thought the woman had been impregnated before being in a coma.

    The hospital should be seeking to take mandatory DNA testing from any male who has had any unsupervised contact with this woman for the last 9 months - minimum.

    Some sick and twisted people in the world.

    Indeed. And even though I'm something of a Tarantino fan I REALLY hope we don't see real-world examples of other grotesque behaviours depicted in his movies.

    No evidence that he got the idea from Kill Bill. Where did Quentin Tarantino get the idea for that part of Kill Bill? There are sick fuks out there, movies or no movies.

    What next? Some dude involved in a motorcycle crash ends up being bummed in a basement? Sick animals.

    Staff only knew she was pregnant when they saw the baby's head emerging. :confused: How could they not know that one of their patients was pregnant?!

    she's been in a coma for 10 years with no reason to suspect she was suddenly preggers...

    how could they even suspect she was!

    Bump?

    Bump?

    Maybe she was a ‘larger’ lady.

    Would they not be monitoring any changes in her body?

    Maybe she didn't show any changes! They don't even know if the baby was premature or anything. They are not neonatal nurses or midwives, they are a nursing home type set up dealing with "medically fragile" patients. They had no reason to think she was pregnant so yes they were monitoring her I'd say but with no idea or suspicion of pregnancy in mind.

    Jesus Christ! That just turned me right off my lunch. Did the woman wake up during labour and is the baby ok? I can't bring myself to read the article :(

    Everything about this is so wrong.

    Poor woman in a coma ends up pregnant.
    The staff have no idea that she is pregnant until she’s in Labour.

    It’s not like she’s been stuffing her face with food. All her meals would probably be given via IV so calorific content is known. How did her change in body shape go unnoticed when she was washed/changed?

    One things for sure, I wouldn’t want to be sick and in that care home.

    ****ed up for sure, but it could have been from the Almodovar movie "Talk to Her" (Habla con ella)

    ****ed up

    After ten years on controlled food intake?

    The only person who deserves blame is the rapist and you couldn't blame anyone for not thinking to check for something so horrendous, but it's just really bizarre that her growing belly wasn't noticed. Then again it could have been a really small bump.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    Horrendous story aside, it's cruel and inhumane to be left lying in a coma for 10 years. No animal would be treated like that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,479 ✭✭✭Kamili


    Then again it could have been a really small bump.

    Thats the thing, it probably was. Particularly as no due date was expected and the baby could have been premature... that and coupled with the fact that they were only feeding for one, not for a pregnant mother.

    there's very little facts out there about this one. Which is probably a good thing for the baby in its later life. Imagine finding out that gruesome past on how you came about and into the world.

    May not even have been a staff member... Which is just as worrying.
