His body turned into his personal prison

Aprison

He was a former martial arts enthusiast and engineering student who was paralysed after a car crash in 1983.  His body turned into a personal prison, he could only ask and scream for help in his head where no one could hear.  After receiving a correct diagnosis Rom Houbens was given a computer to help him communicate. Here are some of the first things he said;

“I was a witness to my own suffering as doctors and nurses tried to speak with me until they gave up all hope.”

“All that time I just literally dreamed of a better life. Frustration is too small a word to describe what I felt.”

Houbens remains in constant care at a facility near Brussels.
