Aruna Ramchandra Shanbaug a young nurse who spent her 45 Years of life in a vegetative state when she was sexually assaulted and left behind to die. She was brtualy victimized by one of the hospital sweeper when Aruna was in the changing room in 1973. She was 24 years old when the incident occurred and since then she never gained consciousness. She was about to get married to a doctor of the same hospital, who use to visit by her lifeless body daily in hopes that she might. But like her consciousness her love story also faded away, he kissed her Goodbye on her forehead and never returned back. After being in Coma for 37 years an appeal for Euthanasia(mercy killing) for her was rejected by the Indian Court Of Justice. Aruna breath her last on 18 May 2015 the longest human soul to have been a vegetative state(Coma) for 42 Years.
