‘For The Second Time ...’

.
Among all the party political bickering this morning, there is one beautiful tale about a 26 year-old man, Nick Verron, who was stabbed in the head with a screwdriver in an unprovoked attack in Bournemouth, Dorset last July.

Mr Verron fell into a deep coma and, after doctors said there was no hope for him, his mother gave permission for the drugs keeping him alive to be stopped along with his life support machine. And then the impossible happened; against the odds, he woke up.

The thug that did this terrible thing was fortunately jailed for seven years at Bournemouth Crown Court last week.

After the trial, the Mrs Verron said, ‘For the second time in his life, I was there when he took his first breath.’

What a wonderful thing to be able to say!
