A(原创)A woman who lived in a coma(昏迷)for 42 years, unendingly cared for by her family, died Wednesday in her home in Miami Gardens, Fla.
Edwarda O’ Bara was a 17-year-old high school student in 1970 when she became sick from her diabetes(糖尿病)medication and slipped into a diabetic coma. Just before she lost consciousness, Edwarda asked her mother, Kaye O’ Bara, to never leave her side, and her family never did.
Edwarda’ s father, Joe O’ Bara, and Kaye took care of their daughter—reading to her, playing her music, making sure she was turned every two hours, bathed, given insulin(胰岛素)and given nourishment through a feeding tube—until their deaths in 1976 and 2008, respectively. After that, Edwarda ’ s sister Colleen O’ Bara took over.
Her family’s unending care for her became a story told across the world. And visitors from across the world traveled to the Miami Gardens every year, sometimes appearing at the doorstep on random days, other times for Edwarda’ s yearly birthday party, a cheerful affair with decorations, balloons and cake.
Through it all, Edwarda remained in a coma. But to her family and followers she remained alive. Colleen O’ Bara described her as “the best sister in the whole wide world”.
