China bride’s botched cold treatment causes 3-month coma, wakes 2 days before wedding
Unqualified member of clinic staff gives injection which, within seconds, leaves woman ‘numb’ and ‘vomiting’
A bride from eastern China slipped into a coma after a botched cold treatment, but she awoke and smiled at her fiancé just two days before her wedding.
Wang Ranran, 24, from Taian in Shandong province, had been in a six-year relationship with her fiancé, Zhang Xirui.
After registering their marriage at the end of last year, they eagerly planned their wedding for April 25, securing a popular emcee and hotel well in advance.
But a simple cold treatment changed their lives forever.
In January, Wang felt a sore throat and assumed it was just a cold, so she and Zhang visited a nearby clinic, Daiyue Jin Medical Hall, which, though small, had a solid reputation.
