Thai woman found alive in coffin after being brought in for cremation - WSVN 7News | Miami News, Weather, Sports | Fort Lauderdale

In shocking turn of events, a 65-year-old Thai woman was found alive inside her coffin at a temple in Bangkok after being brought there for cremation. The stunning discovery was made when temple staff heard a faint knock coming from the coffin and subsequently opened it to find the woman struggling to breathe.

According to the temple's general manager, Pairat Soodthoop, the brother of the deceased woman had driven her 500 kilometers from Phitsanulok province to have her cremated after she expressed a desire to donate her organs. However, the hospital refused to accept the body due to a lack of an official death certificate.

Undeterred, the brother approached Wat Rat Prakhong Tham temple in Bangkok for a free cremation service, only to be turned away once again. It was at this point that staff heard the woman knock on the side of her coffin, prompting them to assess her condition and send her to a nearby hospital for further treatment.

The abbot of the temple has announced that they will cover the woman's medical expenses, providing a glimmer of hope in what appears to be a tragic and devastating turn of events. The incident raises questions about the handling of deceased individuals by funeral homes and hospitals, as well as the importance of having official documentation to facilitate proper care and processing.

As news of the discovery spreads, authorities are left grappling with the implications of this extraordinary case, while the woman's brother and family members struggle to come to terms with what happened. The fate of the 65-year-old woman remains uncertain at this time, but one thing is clear: her remarkable story will be remembered for a long time to come.
 
OMG, this is like something out of a movie πŸŽ₯πŸ‘»! I mean, can you even imagine being in that situation? The woman's brother must've been so relieved when the temple staff opened up her coffin and found her alive πŸ’•. It's crazy to think about how far she traveled just to have her body cremated, only to be turned away again 🚫.

I'm glad the temple stepped in and covered her medical expenses though - that's super kind of them ❀️. It raises a lot of questions about the funeral industry and the importance of having proper documentation in place πŸ’Ό. But at the end of the day, it's just amazing that this woman was given a second chance 🌟. The fact that she's still alive is just incredible πŸ™.

I'm curious to know what happened next - will the woman recover from her ordeal? And how did she even manage to survive inside her coffin for so long? πŸ€” There are so many questions surrounding this story, but one thing's for sure: it's a wild ride 🎒!

This is insane!!! 🀯 I mean, I've heard of some wild stuff happening in Thailand before, but this takes the cake... or should I say, it takes the coffin? πŸ˜‚ The fact that she was actually found alive inside her coffin after being brought there for cremation is just mind-boggling. And to think that the temple staff didn't give up on her and went out of their way to help her... that's really cool! πŸ™

I don't know what's more shocking, the fact that she was found alive or that someone would do such a thing without an official death certificate πŸ€”. I mean, I guess it just goes to show that sometimes people can be very resourceful and determined when they need to be.

It's also interesting to think about how this whole thing could change the way funeral homes and hospitals handle deceased individuals in Thailand... maybe it'll lead to some positive changes? 🌟 Who knows what the future holds, but for now, let's just hope that the 65-year-old woman makes a full recovery! πŸ™πŸ’•
 
omg can you even imagine being in that situation?! 🀯 i mean i've seen some crazy stuff in my life, but this takes the cake... or should i say, it takes the coffin? πŸ˜‚ seriously though, what is wrong with hospitals and funeral homes over here? it's just common sense to have proper documentation before handling a body. and poor lady, she was literally trapped inside her own coffin! πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ thank goodness for the temple staff who heard her out and did the right thing... now let's hope she pulls through this and gets the help she needs πŸ’•
 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this crazy story 😲. Can you even imagine being in that situation? One minute you're lying there dead, the next you're kicking and screaming like it's nothing? I mean, 65 years old is not young anymore, but to be left to die in a coffin while waiting for the authorities to figure some stuff out? It's just heartbreaking πŸ€•.

And what really gets me is that it all could've been avoided if there was just some paperwork done right. I mean, hospitals and funeral homes need to do better at making sure things are handled properly after someone passes away. This woman's story might be one of the most extreme examples, but it's still a wake-up call 🚨.

I'm glad that temple staff were able to hear her out (literally!) and get her the help she needed. And kudos to them for covering her medical expenses - that's some selfless kindness right there πŸ’•. The woman's family might be dealing with some trauma, but at least they'll have a chance to care for their sister again in the near future.

This whole ordeal is also making me think about the role of organ donation and how it can be improved. I mean, if someone wants to donate their organs after passing away, they should be able to do so without all these unnecessary hoops πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ.
