later, he awoke; his legs were numb and he was trembling, but, when he opened his
eyes, he could see the clock across the room fading in and out in front of him When
his wife entered, he saw her for the first time in nine years Doctors confirm that he
has regained his sight and hearing apparently from the flash of lightning, but they are unable to explain the occurrence The only possible explanation offered by one doctor was that, since Edwards lost his sight as a result of trauma in a terrible accident, perhaps the only way it could be restored was by another trauma
