RonJonSurfer Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Stones Music Revives Man in a Coma Sam Carter lost consciousness after contracting severe anemia but came to when his favorite Stones track, "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" was blasted into his ears. The Rolling Stones have been hailed unlikely life-savers after waking a British fan from a coma. Sam Carter lost consciousness after contracting severe anemia but came to when his favorite Stones track, "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" was blasted into his ears. Ironically, the single was the first the retired baker bought when he was a teenager in 1965. Carter, from Stoke, England, was given just a 30 percent survival rate by doctors, who advised his wife Eva to play his favorite track through headphones strapped to her husband's head. Carter says, "I suddenly had a burst of energy and knew I had a lot more life left in me and that's when I woke up - to the sound of the first song I ever bought. "I would love to thank Mick (Jagger) and the rest of the Stones personally - I feel they really did help wake me from my coma."

Kevin Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Levis likes her word play : it's ironic , since the dumba*s didn't know it at the time and was sure it would likey end up in the bin , will now likely sell at Sotheby's for 100 ,000 pounds .

edna Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 I want the Stones in person, performing live in my hospital room, in case I have to awake from a coma... It could be Simon & Garfunkel too. Or probably Amy Winehouse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 Why not? She might even bring me some little present... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted August 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 It's a good bet that Amy will be near the hospital anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
