When someone is suffering for a long time it’s very hard for them, but also it’s horrible time for the family members too. Sometimes it’s easy to lose hope and think it’s better to let go than to cling to that pain…
One of a kind story is Martin Pistorius from South Africa who was 12-years-old when it happened. He suddenly fell ill and was diagnosed with a degenerative illness, leaving him in a vegetative state.
For 12 hard and long years, Pistorius was trapped inside his own body.
He thinks he woke up around when he was 14-15 years old, a couple of years later when it happened, but everyone around him though he was unconscious of the perception around him. His mother said once that she wished he was dead, and he heard all that, but he knew she was heartbroken seeing her son lay there in vegetative state, silently suffering on the inside…
In the following powerful NBC interview, we learn what life was like for Pistorius, trapped with his thoughts for over a decade.
