She Was in Coma for 42 Yrs – How Did They Keep Her Alive? #rylestube #reallifestory #medicalmiracle
This is the haunting and heroic true story of Aruna Shanbaug, a young nurse from Mumbai who suffered a brutal assault in 1973. She was strangled with a dog chain, raped, and left in a persistent vegetative state for the rest of her life.
Doctors said she wouldn’t live long. But she survived for 42 years—without ever regaining consciousness.
Her survival depended on a Ryle’s tube—a soft, narrow tube passed through the nose into the stomach. Through it, she was fed liquid food, medicine, and water daily by the dedicated nursing staff at Mumbai’s KEM Hospital.
Aruna became a symbol of unwavering care, quiet suffering, and intense ethical debate. Her case sparked nationwide conversations about euthanasia, human rights, and the meaning of life and dignity.
She passed away in 2015. But her story continues to echo across hospital walls, courtrooms, and human hearts.
