A husband in China has awakened from a vegetative state after 10 years of dedicated care by his adoring wife, warming hearts on mainland social media.
Sun Hongxia, from Anhui province in the east of the country, refused to give up on her husband who slipped into semi-consciousness after a heart attack in 2014.
The years of tender, loving care helped him recover, Dawan News reported.
In a video clip, Sun is seen sitting next to her husband who is awake in bed. When she starts telling him about the past few years, she bursts into tears.
“Although I’m very tired, I feel all is worthwhile as the family is reunited,” Sun told Dawan News, smiling as she gently touches her husband’s head.
She remembered the shock and pain when he had the sudden cardiac arrest that put him in a vegetative state.
