When I was 18 I was rushed into a hospital from my college dorm because my appendix had burst. A little after midnight I was rolled into the surgery room. Only, the anesthesiologist didn’t put me to sleep. He just paralyzed me. As they intibated me I realized that they thought I was unconscious, but I was wide awake. It was a horrifying experience. I don’t remember the operation, but they said that as they closed me up (this was before the days of scoping for this) my hands came up and started pulling the tube out of my throat (no memory of that, either). I spent some time in ICU as my breathing would occasionally stop. To be aware in a useless body is beyond words…
I am convinced she was murdered.
(Then again... Tell us the truth, or the evil purple one will come back...)
I can't believe you're friends with Evan...he's such a pain in the ass that one...but birds of a feather and all that.
The audio is worth listening too.... :)

Agreed after 12 years even with his day long daily therapy he would still have a degree of muscle atrophy.
EvEn so, if he can recount things accurately that he should have been oblivious to AND he's right there telling you so (can touch him, question him) there is no reason not to believe him. Stranger things have happened...
