VANCOUVER, Canada (transcendmagazine.com) -- We just received this great news in from team manager, Matt Jewett.
-----
We are incredibly happy to be able to pass along the news that Berny
Pizarro has "awoken" from her coma on Saturday.
We spoke with her mother (Kenny) today who was at her side at the
hospital. She said that Berny was currently working with a physical
therapist and a linguist. She said that currently Berny is not able to
speak but that she is able to communicate using her eyes and facial
expressions.
Kenny said that after 23 days in a coma Berny is understandably
struggling to understand what happened to her and get out of bed and
moving. "It's a miracle, but I never lost hope for my daughter. I'm her
mother, but also her friend and I knew in my heart that she was too much
of a fighter to quit and had many good things left to do on this earth".
Kenny also wanted to pass along the family's appreciation for the
outpouring of support that they have received from friend all around the
world. "There has been so many people who have helped us along over the
past couple weeks. We are so grateful."
In a few days we hope to get some additional information from the family
on ways those interested can help with the expenses they will be facing
from this ongoing ordeal.
"Please pass along my thanks to all those who have helped out and keep
us in their prayers. We are truly grateful" , said Kenny
