Christa Pike, who survived two doses of a lethal injection drug last week during a botched execution in Tennessee, is conscious and speaking, her lawyers said in a statement on Tuesday.

Ms. Pike continues to receive critical medical care at a Nashville hospital, the lawyers said. The prognosis remains unclear, they said, but they expect a long recovery.

“Christa is a survivor and will take recovery one day at a time,” the lawyers said.

Ms. Pike, 50, is believed to be the first person to have survived doses of a lethal injection drug.

          Exactly, and I don’t, I call him god as in a concept, god with a capital G is a religious term as in an actual person and elevated position.
          Gods only exist as delusions for the weak minded.
          Omnipotent is religious belief, impotent is the result of not existing, not existing makes god 100.00% impotent.
