Bee Gee Robin Showing Signs Of Recovery

Robin Gibb is reportedly showing signs of a possible recovery after slipping into a coma last week.

Family members have been keeping a bedside vigil after the 62-year-old fell ill with pneumonia whilst also battling liver and colon cancer.

Brother Barry was said to have sung to the Bee Gees star while his children have been playing music in a bid to "bring him back."

Now Robin's wife Dwina has revealed that the stricken star has been responding.

Speaking to The Sun, Dwina said: "He's moving his head and nodding. When we're asking questions he's responding to them. I can't believe it."

She revealed that an ECG scanner showed Robin was responding to the music the family had been playing to him.

"We're very pleased," she added. "We think he might even talk once the tubes come out."
