Long story, but here’s a summary. A guy came to our hospital, got admitted, and died the next day. The deaner got him ready and the family came in and made the traditional circling of the coffin. The deaner nailed it shut and the family took it and spent the night singing and telling stories of the deceased, then buried him the next day. He came back to the hospital about a year later. Caused some excitement. The administrator (American), the deaner (Haitian) and the attending doctor (American) had a big pow wow. The death certificate was signed by a doctor (American). The deaner and family recognized him. When the attending went back to the States, he told the story to a reporter who brought a team down to investigate. My friend was actually the translator. Apparently one of the best documented case of a zombie. The Americans said it was done with drugs. The Haitians said it was voodoo. It’s written up in the Serpant and the Rainbow if you’ve ever read that book.
