According to The Sun, doctors put her into a coma, but after months the girl receiving breathing assistance, they decided that there was nothing more they could do. They reportedly suggested taking her off life support.
The family launched a social media campaign to continue treatment. Ten days later, the family said Marwa shocked doctors by awakening on her own and smiling.
Her father posted a video of his daughter’s smile to social media.
Marwa has a twin sister. Her parents remain hopeful that she will recover.
Ma Marwa d'amour, tu me manques mon ange
