From the brink to home in just over a week.
Bee Gee Robin Gibb spent a week in a coma fighting the pneumonia that was ravaging his body, weak from cancer treatments and intestinal surgery. Doctors held little hope yet, one week ago, he miraculously came out of the coma.
Now, Britain's The Mirror is reporting that he is sitting up in bed and talking with family and could be out of the hospital by the end of the week. A friend told the paper:
Robin is still weak but getting better by the day. His recovery is nothing short of a miracle. Weeks ago Dwina and the family were prepared for the worst, now they are hoping he will be home very soon.
They will not rush him but there is a very good possibility of him being discharged at the end of the week and arrangements are being made for him to have medical help at home.
The doctors will not take the decision lightly. Dwina will make sure his every medical need is catered for. Robin is aware how close to death he was. But he is determined to go home.
