Superstar singer Adele has managed many things in the past couple of years, turning from a small-time artist to an award-winning international mega-hit – but it’s not often an artist can claim to have helped awake a child from a coma with a song.
That’s right – Charlotte Neve from Tawden, Lancashire, was left in a week-long coma after suffering a brain haemorrhage earlier this year, and could not be awoken – leaving her mother Leila terribly upset. But, after climbing into her hospital bed and singing her Adele's 'Rolling in the Deep', Charlotte awoke from her sleep with a smile – and is now well on her way to recovery.
“I climbed into her hospital bed to give her a cuddle - she was wired up to machines and unresponsive - and Adele came on the radio,” Charlotte told The Telegraph. “I started singing it to her because she loves her and we used to sing that song together.”
“Charlotte started smiling and I couldn't believe it. It was the first time she had reacted to anything since the haemorrhage. The nurses were astounded and told me to keep singing, and she smiled again. The nurses said it was like I 'unlocked her' and from that day she started getting better and better.”
