[Tom Houlihan]

A woman was in a coma following a car accident. Although her injuries had healed, she'd stayed in the coma for months, giving no response.

The nurses were in her room giving her a sponge bath.

One of them was washing her private area and noticed that there was a slight response on the monitor when she touched her.

They tried it again and sure enough there was sizable movement.

They went to the doctor and told him.

The doctor went to her husband and explained what had happened, telling him, "As crazy as this sounds, maybe a little oral sex will do the trick and bring her out of the coma."

The husband was sceptical, but was assured that they'd close the curtains round the bed for privacy. The husband finally agreed and went into his wife's room.

After a few minutes, alarms went off - the woman's monitor had flat lined, no pulse, no heart rate.

The nurses ran back into the room. "What happened!?" they cried.

The husband said, "I'm not sure, I think she might have choked."
