Robin Gibb was on the verge of passing away just a few days ago. He was on a life support machine and his family were told to expect his suffering to be over soon.
But the tables have quickly turned, and now he’s breathing on his own, awake from his coma and responding to his loved ones.
The Bee Gees star was diagnosed with colon and liver cancer in October 2010, and contracted pneumonia after his intense chemotherapy, which led him to a 12-day coma.
Dr Andrew Thillainayagam, who has been treating Robin in London is shocked at his “remarkable” recovery.
It’s been reported that as he woke, he looked at his son and said “hello”, after his family had been speaking to him and singing during his time in the coma.
Concern over Robin’s health first started after Maurice, his twin brother, died from the same illness in 2003, aged 53, which must have brought extra worry for his wife and children.
Even if you’re not a fan of The Bee Gees (their music never appealed to me) it goes without saying that his condition is a horrible one, and I hope he recovers fully and he lives a long and happy life.
