Corpse opens eyes

[emad]

An American woman was left horrified when she visited her dead brother's body - and he opened his eyes.

Deborah Golson had gone to pay her last respects to brother Louis Golson's corpse after he died in his sleep.

Emergency crews had declared the 51-year-old man dead after family members found him unresponsive in his bed.

However, when Deborah went into see her sibling's body he opened his eyes, scaring her out of her wits.

Louis' niece, Kimberly Golson, said: "They told me to call the doctor, to sign the death certificate and then said they would not have to take him to the morgue, because the funeral home could come and get him straight away.

Then he woke up."

4. He was in a diabetic coma...

...had too much sugar in his system (I think, or is that insulin shock?)

5. Deep sadness, then HEART-EXPLODING TERROR,

then (luckily) relief that her brother is still alive. Man! They'd be peeling me off the ceiling after something like that.
