A 91-year-old woman in Poland was declared dead November 6, and sent to a funeral home, only to wake up 11hours later in cold storage, CNN's Polish affiliate reports.
Now she's home and doing fine.
The doctor went to the home of Janina Kolkiewicz in the town of Ostrow Lubelski on November 6, after her family said she'd stopped breathing.
"I checked the pulse on the foream artery, Carotid artery also. I listened to the heart, to the breathing. I also examined the pupils. There were no reflexes. Typical symptoms of death" the doctor said.
The doctor signed the death certificate, and her family began planning for her funeral.
Then the funeral home called to break the news.
Authorities are trying to find out what happened.
"We are investigating weather the doctor exposed the woman to imminent danger of loss of life, as the lady was moved to the funeral home and kept in cold storage" Beata Sky- jakowska, a spokeswoman for the prosecutors office said.
