Yves Samson was in a coma for 12 days following poisoning. The doctors were not very optimistic that he woke up, but he managed to challenge the probabilities.
A year after recovering from this medical obstacle, the man became the second in two years to win the million at the Shell station in Ville-Marie, by the same clerk.
The great fisherman has already bought a new trailer for camping and plans to spoil his two sons which help him a lot with his health problems.
Newly retired, he also expects to spend a lot of his free time on the lake. The new Témiscamian millionaire took the opportunity to buy a house in a small quiet corner to take advantage of his retirement.
For its part, the service station already has an idea of what it will do with the $ 10,000 won thanks to the ticket purchased from their homes, said the director of the station, Isabelle Landry. She has already noticed an increase in lottery ticket sales from Yves Samson’s gain.
Recall that the probability of winning a big lot in the lottery is around one in 14 million.
