"Dead" man wakes up under autopsy knife

CARACAS (Reuters) - A Venezuelan man who had been declared dead woke up in the morgue in excruciating pain after medical examiners began their autopsy.

Carlos Camejo, 33, was declared dead after a highway accident and taken to the morgue, where examiners began an autopsy only to realize something was amiss when he started bleeding. They quickly sought to stitch up the incision on his face.

"I woke up because the pain was unbearable," Camejo said, according to a report on Friday in leading local newspaper El Universal.

His grieving wife turned up at the morgue to identify her husband's body only to find him moved into a corridor -- and alive.

Reuters could not immediately reach hospital officials to confirm the events. But Camejo showed the newspaper his facial scar and a document ordering the autopsy.

OMG! I thought this was going to be some type of joke!!!
I cannot imagine anything worse than this!

L'Chaim!
To Life!

Can you imagine what was going through that guys mind as he lay on a table in the morgue? I have heard of people waking up in the middle of their operation and unable to convey to the Drs that they are awake and can feel everything.

Yes, Viki, I've heard of that too.
And that's horrible enough!

But, to know that the docs were cutting your body open, cuz they mistakenly thought you dead!!!
How many times have people NOT awakened???

:

I will NEVER allow an autopsy after reading this! I don't care!
I'm a universal donor, but, they will have to KNOW I'm dead...
OmG, this brings up too many scarey things... I don't want to think of it....

Shalom!
