It sounds like something out of a movie. A woman declared dead wakes up to find herself being eulogized. Of course, what happened next wasn't even remotely funny, but can be best described as "it was really her time to go."
From the Daily News:
A Russian woman died from a heart attack brought on by the shock of waking up at her own funeral.
Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov, 49, was mistakenly declared deceased by doctors, the Daily Mail reported Friday.
But she later woke up - in a coffin surrounded by sobbing relatives. She started screaming after realizing she was about to be buried alive.
Mukhametzyanov, a resident of Kazan, was rushed back to the hospital where she was declared dead -- this time for real.
Her husband, Fagili Mukhametzyanov, was distraught.
"Her eyes fluttered and we immediately rushed her back to the hospital but she only lived for another 12 minutes," he said.
He told The Sun that he would sue the hospital.
"I am very angry and want answers. She wasn't dead when they said she was and they could have saved her."
A spokesman at the hospital, also in Kazan, said officials were investigating.
Russia has socialized medicine. In Russia, they don't even give you a death panel or a final examination before they end it and put you in a box.
By the way, I am assuming they don't use the same embalming techniques that we use in the States either.
