In
April 2011, 7-year-old Charlotte Neve suffered a brain hemorrhage that left her
in a coma. Doctors told her mother Leila to start saying her goodbyes, so the
31-year old cuddled next to her daughter on the hospital bed...and something miraculous
happened.
Neve
began to sing Adele's "Rolling in
the Deep" to her daughter (one of her favorite songs) once it came on the
radio, and Charlotte smiled in response.
"I
couldn't believe it," Neve told The Telegraph. "It was the first time
she had reacted to anything since the hemorrhage. The nurses were astonished
and told me to keep singing, and she smiled again."
"It
was like she was rebooting," her mother said. And after some
physiotherapy, professional therapy, and speech therapy, Charlotte was able to
go home. "She was allowed to come home for a weekend to see how she was
and the first thing she said was 'home sweet home.'
"Charlotte
has been brilliant," Neve said. "She is so determined and brave. The
doctors have closed telling us what she should be able to do—because she has
amazed them so much."
Looks
like Adele's music can cure more than just a broken heart. This may be one of Adele's
biggest achievements.
