@@shom924 She probably had a mental breakdown. It happens quite often with parents who have children with mental and physical disabilities. It is a harsh struggle, everyday you see your child in vegetative state, and reminded that possibly your fault that the child is like that. Every time you try to give them help, but nothing works, and bills, and time add up. Eventually to point make you think what would happen to their child once the parents were gone, who will take of them and how will they be treated. Sometimes it make you wonder if it better for everyone, especially to the child, if they pass away; the child wouldn't suffer anymore being a live in dead state of mind, and abuse by other in the future.

I always talk to my patients, whether they're responsive or not. You can never make the assumption that they can't comprehend your presence. Sparing 5 minutes of your own time to dedicate to them, no matter how small a gesture, whether its reading to them or combing their hair or even just holding their hand for a bit can make such a world of difference. Always be kind and patient because it doesn't take much to make someones day :)

My brother's heart stopped when he was 17. He was training at a rugby club and apparently just dropped to the ground. The doctors told us he had been without oxegen to his brain for over 20 minutes and that he had severe brain damage. They didnt think he would make it. He went into a coma for months afterwards and when he came out if it he was blind, deaf and unresponsive. After occupational therapy and rehabilitation he slowly started showing signs of improvement. At first it was simple grunt responses but miraculously over a decade later he is walking, talking and living a mostly independent life. He still has problems with dexterity in his hands but he is wittier than me and can hold a conversation with anyone. I couldn't be prouder of the persistence, sense of humour and determination he has shown through it all. We've seen many other patients that weren't so lucky.

He leaned over me smiling evilly. The bright light from the very large operating lamp overhead began to noticeably dim when he approached me. He stabs me with one of his blacker than black tentacles into my Heart. I scream in agony. He laughs. I feel my Heart very rapidly seizing up as the much colder than ice liquefied Corruption begins to rapidly fill my every fiber of my being. He keeps his vile tentacle inside of me even after he gets done filling me with his Corruption.

Depending on how long I've been in the coma and how I've been treated, I may be thankful. This is why I think everyone should have on medical file what they want their family to do if they end up in an coma. Of course, if you can still breathe on your own, pulling the plug won't matter. Euthanasia would be needed and that's not legal everywhere.

[@greatleader4841]

Man you're making me feel bad. after my dad passed away, i made the call to pull the plug on my mother who was in a coma for a year. She ended up living for another 2 weeks before the starvation and lack of liquids killed her. we moved her into a hospice and let her die.
