Mother hails ‘miracle’ after son comes out of coma after being shot in head

THE relieved mother of a doorman spoke of the “miracle” of her son coming out of a coma after gunmen had left him for dead after firing a bullet into his head.

Prayers and support from family and friends had kept the relatives of innocent bouncer Wayne Barrett going as they held a bedside vigil beside the injured and unconscious doorman.

Mother Mary McNeill yesterday spoke of how her 31-year-old son had recently come out of a coma a month after being shot in the head while on the door of a pub in Fairview, north Dublin.
