Pole wakes up from 19 year coma
By admin | June 4, 2007
A Polish man has woken up from a coma after 19 years to find the Communist party no longer in power and food no longer rationed.
Railway worker Jan Grzebski, 65, fell into a coma after he was hit by a train in 1988, reports Polish TV.
“Now I see people on the streets with mobile phones and there are so many goods in the shops it makes my head spin,” he told Polish television.
When Mr Grzebski had his accident Poland was still ruled by its last communist leader, Wojciech Jaruzelski.
“When I went into a coma there was only tea and vinegar in the shops, meat was rationed and huge petrol queues were everywhere,” Mr Grzebski said.
