Angèle, a French woman, was in a coma. Her physicians believed her to be "brain dead"...Her daughter rescues her from physicians wanting to harvest her vital organs. Angèle shed a tear when she heard the doctors talking to her daughter about how they could harvest her mother's organs. The daughter saw the tear...

Only, she couldn't... make herself noticed.
Later, she recovered from this kind of "locked-in syndrom"... and told her story to a journalist... who wrote a book...
