    Now she is in intensive care in the same hospital where doctors declared her death.

    Doesn’t sound reassuring.

    “I’m not dead!”
    “I’m sure she will be soon, she’s very ill.”

    I’m guessing they just had an extremely weak pulse? I worry that hospitals will start cudgeling patients to make sure! Although I think I’d prefer that to waking up in a buried coffin…

    Perhaps we should bring back safety coffins?

      This is exactly why I want to be cremated.

          I’ve thought of that, but hey, if I’m unconscious enough that you think I’m dead, I probably won’t mind the burning either, and at least I won’t be waking up.

    Do they not embalm bodies?

    For those who skip reading articles: This happened in Babahoyo, Ecuador. The woman was declared dead and immediately placed into a casket. The family arrives hours later to dress her in funeral attire and find her breathing.

    Aren’t bodies usually embalmed before funerals? In this case it’s a good thing she wasn’t, but usually it helps avoid the whole being buried alive problem.
