Jan Grzewski, 65, a former railroad worker from Poland fell into a coma after being hit by a train while attaching two rail cars in 1988. 19 years later , Grzewski has finally woken up. "I wake up at 7 a.m. and I watch TV. I could not talk or do anything, now it's much better," said Grzewski. In 2006, Gertruda began to notice Jan attempting to talk, and took him back to the hospital. Less than two months later, Jan awoke from his coma. Grzewski was injured while Poland was still a communist nation and he remembers seeing only "tea and vinegar" on the shelves of stores. "When I went into a coma, there was only tea and vinegar in the shops. Meat was rationed and there were huge petrol queues everywhere. Now I see people on the streets with cellphones and there are so many goods in the shops it makes my head spin," said Grzewski.
