Woman declared dead discovered alive in coffin during her own wake

A 76-year-old woman who was declared dead was found breathing inside her coffin during her own wake in Ecuador on Friday, to the astonishment of her family members. Relatives heard strange noises coming from the casket five hours into the wake, and once she was discovered alive, she was immediately rushed to the same hospital that pronounced her dead.
