[0:05] la.
[0:13] >> Happy holidays from Thomasson Auto
[0:15] Group.
[0:16] Mike Donghue, News Center 6.
[0:31] This is how Mrs. Carter's odyssey began
[0:33] in an operating room that would soon
[0:35] fill up with 15 specialists.
[0:38] >> I'm reading 36.
[0:40] >> 12:04 and Mrs. Carter's heart has
[0:42] stopped beating.
[0:44] It's absolutely flatline now.
[0:46] >> Stop. You
[0:46] >> look over there. You see it's just
[0:47] sitting there.
[0:48] >> It's not beating. It's not quivering.
[0:51] >> The heart's doing nothing.
[0:53] >> I was dead.
[0:54] >> But she isn't anymore. Welcome back,

[1:33] I'm here because my husband's being
[1:35] tortured to death and I really love him
[1:36] and I think he's about to be killed. I
[1:38] think he's about to be murdered. Um,
[1:40] I'll do anything to prevent that.
[1:43] >> And what she set out to do was to embark
[1:45] upon a hunger strike 27 days ago, right
[1:48] here in front of the National Palace in
[1:50] the middle of downtown Guatemala City,
[1:52] where I spoke with her earlier this
[1:54] week.
[1:54] >> If a Guatemalan tried to do what you are
[1:57] doing right here in front of the
[1:58] presidential palace, what would happen?
[1:59] >> They would be dragged off the streets in
[2:01] 5 minutes and probably badly beaten, if
