We've all skimmed through the paper, noticed similar names to our own perhaps in some sections over time, but we're pretty sure we have never made it to the death notices and figured out that somebody thought we were dead. But that very thing happened to poor Sven-Olof Svensson, according to the Metro. The 81-year-old man from Jonkoping in Sweden was wrongly reported dead after his sister, who is 90, was "given the impression" that he was dead following a conversation with a doctor. Apparently Sven had been admitted to hospital on Christmas Eve while feeling unwell. His obituary appeared one week later in the local Jonkopings-Posten newspaper. The newspaper reported that a friend of Mr. Svensson's sister had gone to visit him in hospital only to discover the gentleman sitting up in bed. When the paper sent someone to write a follow-up story, the asked Mr. Svensson how he felt about the mix-up to which he replied: "You don't feel much." "We are all on the same road. Sooner or later you are going to end up in the obituary section. I’ve lived a fantastic long life, I’m 81 and can’t complain about my age." We're wondering what the conversation with his sister was like after the event.
