A woman from the United Arab Emirates has regained consciousness after spending 27 years in a vegetative state （植物人状态）. Munira Abdulla was aged 32 when she suffered a brain injury after the car she was riding in was hit by a bus in 1991. Her son Omar revealed her fantastic recovery in an interview with The National.
He described how the accident occurred when he was four years old and needed to be brought home from kindergarten. Ms Abdulla's brother-in-law drove her to school to collect Omar and the family were driving home, with mother and child in the back seat, when they were hit by the bus. As the bus hit，Ms Abdulla threw herself around her son to protect him from the impact. While she suffered a severe head injury, he escaped with just a bruise. Omar described how his mother was left untreated for hours because the family were unable to call for help and there was little traffic，before she was transferred to a clinic in London.
There, doctors diagnosed a vegetative state, meaning she was completely unresponsive but able to feel pain. She was transferred back to the UAE and put on a breathing machine and a feeding tube to keep her alive, spending the next few decades hooked up to machines. But in April 2017, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed, the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, heard of her case and gave her family a fund for treatment. Ms Abdulla was flown to Germany where she underwent surgeries to repair her muscles while being given medication to improve her sleep patterns.
Around a year later she began making strange sounds , and within three days she called out to Omar using his name. "It was her! She was calling my name, I was flying with joy； for years I have dreamed of this moment, and my name was the first word she said，" he said.
