Li Zhiming's long suffering family have to care for the 74-year-old throughout the entire time he's asleep. They say they have to sit him up and pour warm soup down his throat to feed him.
They also have to make him wear a nappy because he doesn't even wake up to go to the bathroom. His daughter-in-law Fu Yip, 42, said: "When he is sleeping it is like he is in a coma.
"We can't rouse him at all - if we put spoonfuls of soup in his mouth he swallows automatically but otherwise there's no response. Then when he wakes up he doesn't sleep for six months - wandering around the streets at night to amuse himself or watching television."
