Clarisse Agbégnénou is a miracle and on Sunday May 28, the 30-year-old judoka delivered a poignant testimony in the TF1 magazine, 7 to 8. The one who won a sixth title of world judo champion in Doha on May 10 returned to the first complicated days of her existence, during the year 1992.
“I wasn’t breathing. They revived me, but they had to operate on me, and afterwards, I fell into a coma. So born dead, revived, fell into a coma for a few weeks”, explained the mother since June 17, 2022 of a little Athena. The medical staff then considered disconnecting her, but that was without counting on her parents who still asked for a little more time. “My parents were like, ‘No, just wait a few more days, she’ll come back, you’ll see!'”, reported the champion who evolves in less than 63 kilos.
And the miracle finally happened. “One fine day, they came, and they said to themselves: ‘Okay, now it’s too late.‘ Et it’s the day I breathed! They almost unplugged me.” narrated the one who can boast of having a superb track record with two Olympic titles and 8 medals at the world championships, including 6 gold.
