Still unresponsive

Ariel Sharon in better daysThe world’s most famous coma victim, former Israeli prime minister
Ariel Sharon, lingers on, according to an article in Arutz Sheva. Mr
Sharon suffered a mild stroke in December 2005 and a massive one in
January 2006 which left him in a coma and unresponsive. From time to
time, he has fluttered his eyes, creating a flurry of rumours that he
might be regaining consciousness, but these seem to be involuntary. He
is only on a respirator at night. “There is still no change
physiologically. His body functions, but he has still not regained
consciousness. Who knows if he can hear or not?” says Raanan Gissin, a
close friend who used to direct Sharon’s office. Mr Sharon is now 81
and lives in a care facility in Ra’anana, outside Tel Aviv. ~ Arutz Sheva, Jan 15
