A man who had a seizure at home and nearly died has spoken of his experiences during ten days he was unconscious as he recovered from the ordeal in hospital
A beloved county councillor who nearly died after suffering a seizure at home joked he “didn’t like the accommodation and came back” from the dead. Bert Biscoe, 70, had been at home in Truro when he suddenly collapsed due to a diabetic condition he was not aware he had.
His wife called 999 and was talked through how to administer chest compressions and he was unconscious for the next ten days. Now, having recovered from the ordeal, he says he vividly remembers seeing himself with tubes coming out of him while he was in the coma, while his family and doctors were in the room.
Bert, a Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Cornwall, city councillor and former Mayor of Truro, told Cornwall Live : “I was dead then. I had a profound time on the other side in the dark although I didn’t like the accommodation and came back.
“I was out of it for ten days – I was unconscious for a chunk of it and then they put me into a controlled coma. I had no idea of the passage of time and what was going on. As I was coming out of the coma I opened my eyes and this may have been hallucinatory but I remember looking up at a mirror and seeing myself with a green tube coming out of my mouth and doctors floating around a bit ethereally, and my wife and two daughters were there.
