Brie Duval wakes up from coma after 5 months to find out her boyfriend has moved in with someone else
A woman has revealed her turmoil after waking up from a coma to discover her fiancé had blocked her on social media and left her for another woman. Brie Duval, 25, who is originally from Australia was living in Canada when she fell from a rooftop bar in a freak accident and fell head first into a pavement in August 2020.
She was left with several broken bones, a brain injury and was airlifted to the University of Alberta Hospital and placed on life support in the ICU. Doctors gave her just a 10 per cent chance of survival, and she was placed in a coma to help her recover. Five months after the initial accident, she started to remember her life before the coma and tried to call her fiancé, who she had been with for four years, only to discover he’d ghosted her and moved on.
Brie told The Mirror that when she was finally given her phone she immediately thought to call him – only to discover he’d not visited her once.
‘I opened my phone going to message him when a message pops up from this woman that says I am now with [partner’s name]. I have moved him out. He’s now living with me and my son, please do not contact him.
‘I have not heard from him since I have been in hospital, he’s completely and utterly left me in the dust. So I don’t even have closure as to why this happened,’ she said.
Brie also wasn’t able to see her parents who were prevented from coming to the country due to coronavirus restrictions.
