Wife wakes from coma after husband's suicide (Agencies) Updated: 2005-01-22 00:11
An Italian pensioner committed suicide after his wife fell into a coma, but
just hours after he killed himself the woman woke up, Italian media reported on
Saturday.
Recalling the end of "Romeo and Juliet," the 70-year-old man, Ettore, who had
sat by his wife's bedside for four months after she slipped into a coma
following a heart attack, finally gave up hope and gassed himself in the garage
of his family home.
Less than a day later, his wife, Rossana, woke up in her hospital bed in
Padua and immediately asked for him.
The northern town of Padua lies just 40 miles from Verona, where star-crossed
lover Romeo killed himself believing Juliet to have died. But minutes later
Juliet woke up and seeing Romeo dead, stabbed herself.
