男子脑部手术后昏迷 醒来变身艺术达人
男子脑部手术后昏迷 醒来变身艺术达人

Moe Hunter comes from England. He was born in 1984. In 2004, doctors told him that he had bacterial meningitis(细菌性脑膜炎) in the brain. He went into a coma(昏迷) for over a month after brain surgery. After he woke up, he found himself with no memory, but a new set of art skills.  

“I woke up on Oct. 13, 2004. I don’t remember anything before 2004—everything has been said to me by family and friends,” Hunter said. “I really wasn’t creative before. In fact, people used to laugh at my drawings,” he said. “I was more interested in football and computer games.” 

His friends and family still can’t believe what happened. When Hunter spoke to the doctor, the doctor said there’s so much about the brain they still can’t understand. “Nobody has really given an explanation for it. I just know comas can do crazy things to a human brain. They just said there are many stories and theories over the years. And people have woken from comas with skills and even speaking other languages,” Hunter said.

“It was crazy. I haven’t stopped since then. I just found I had this strong interest in painting which never existed in me before. I just feel really lucky but also shocked as I really don’t know where this came from. I wish I could create more wonderful paintings.”
