A Polish man who was in a coma for 19 years finally woke up on May 1.
Jan Grzebski, a man who worked for the Polish railroad company, was hit by a train in 1988. At that time he went into a coma.
Grzebski’s wife, Gertruda, took care of him and was the reason he was still alive.

He woke up to a totally different world. He was surprised that the Communists are no longer in charge and even more surprised to find out he had 11 grandchildren. When he went into the coma, he had four children and no grandchildren.
Doctors said they had expected Grzebski would never wake up from his coma.
“What amazes me today is all these people who walk around with their mobile phones and never stop moaning. I’ve got nothing to complain about,” said Grzebski.(Jason Cox, Staff Writer with AFP)
波蘭一名男子昏迷了十九年,終於在五月一日清醒。
任職於波蘭鐵路公司的詹.格賽斯基一九八八年遭火車衝撞,自此陷入昏迷。

格賽斯基說︰「今日讓我訝異的是,所有人都帶著手機趴趴走,而且怨聲不斷。我沒什麼好抱怨的。」(翻譯︰賴美君)

But while last year’s event was a celebration of the post-ChatGPT AI boom, executives this time are likely grappling with the uncertainty of the Trump administration’s effort to reshape the global trade order — disrupting a decades-old model for tech manufacturing. This year’s exhibition will of course feature the hardware required to bring artificial intelligence to life.
For many people, allergies are an all-too-familiar annoyance. The constant sneezing, itching, and watery eyes are just a few clear signs of allergies, which is a surprisingly common condition affecting millions worldwide. But what exactly triggers these reactions, and how can we cope with them? Allergies arise from a misunderstanding between our immune system and seemingly harmless substances. Under normal circumstances, the immune system acts as our body’s personal bodyguard, diligently identifying and eliminating threats like viruses and bacteria.
