The funeral of an 80-year-old
Sardinian woman was cancelled near Sassari Wednesday after she
was found to be still alive in a local hospital.
The family had already booked a place for her in the cemetery
and church bells had been tolling for her.
She is said to be in serious but stable condition in
Sassari's Santissima Annunziata Hospital.
The hospital had at first told the family, after she had a
stroke, "she's brain dead, there's nothing more we can do for
her".
