Mamma Mia! Girl in Coma Woke Up Singing ABBA Song

Posted by Alex in Medicine, Movies & SciFi on May 26, 2009 at 12:18 pm


I’ve always liked ABBA, and now I like ‘em even more because apparently their music can miraculously awaken someone from a coma!

Here’s the story of how 3-year-old Layla Towsey woke up from a meningitis coma, singing Mamma Mia:

Ms Towsey [...] , said: "Before they put her in the ambulance we were told to give her a kiss goodbye – it was an awful moment."

Layla was also diagnosed with meningococcal septicaemia and the family prepared themselves for the worst as she lay in intensive care.

Ms Towsey said: "But on the Sunday morning I could hear her singing Mamma Mia quietly. I couldn’t believe it.

"I knew immediately she was going to be OK."

    I hope she grows up to be a Dancing Queen.

    That reminds me, when I was in Mexico, we had an ABBA CD and we CRUNKED UP DA SOUND to almost max, rolled down our windows and slowly drove through some quiet Mexican town.

    Ironically, ABBA puts me IN a coma.

    Vonskippy's comment made me spit up my drink. Through my nose, even. Good one.

    Maybe she woke up to get AWAY from the ABBA.
