Hey, guys! I'm currently mulling over a WIP about a girl with locked in syndrome -- she was supposed to die, but she hasn't (i.e. it's not deliberate). I've tried Googling it over and over, but all I can come up with is "traumatic head injury" or "medication overdose." I can make either of those work, but I need a few more details. What kind of medication/traumatic head injury? I want it to be a) deliberate and b) not require a medical degree, i.e. no super special talents required. Obviously reasonable intelligence and dexterity, but apart from that...?
Can I make this work?
