Woman with spinal injury spends 6 days trapped in car without food or drink
August 5, 2019 15:01
Corine Bastide, 45, has been trapped in a car without food and water for six days, Fox News reported.
The woman had a spinal injury and could not call for help, because at the slightest attempt to move she lost consciousness from severe pain. Corine was held hostage to a difficult situation for five days, and in order not to suffer from dehydration, she had to drink rain water.
Eventually, after mustering enough strength, she managed to use her foot to open the car door.
Corine was hospitalized, and she will have to receive inpatient treatment for several weeks.
