Former “Miss Virginia” Barbara Guthrie Lay has come to life after being declared dead from complications from COVID-19. ABC 7 portal reports about it.
Shortly before Christmas, an 82-year-old American woman contracted the coronavirus. According to her assumptions, she caught the infection from the nearest neighbor. Lei soon developed breathing problems and was hospitalized on December 20. Two days later, doctors declared the woman in the intensive care unit dead.
The first to receive the tragic news of Lei’s death was her son Tom. He contacted Tony’s mother’s husband, who began calling other relatives “in tears”. However, a few minutes later, the hospital called his son again, informing that his mother had a pulse. “As a doctor, I will not hesitate to say that there is only one word to describe what happened – miracle,” said Tom.
According to Tony, until this day, he did not understand how much he loved his wife. “I was overjoyed and cried again. From an unhappy person with a broken heart, I turned into a very happy one,” admitted the husband of the 1958 beauty contest winner.
Currently, the former “Miss Virginia” has been transferred to a regular ward, but she does not yet know what happened. Relatives decide how best to inform her about this.
