They say that a person in a coma can hear and understand you and that people whom they love and that love them should be there and talk to them as much as they can. They even say that being there is better than not as they can sense the presence.
Saying something such as ,"she'd be better of to die" is unthinkable to me as it is rude and uncalled for, and I imagine that would not help the person in a coma's spirits any. Things like that shouldn't be said at all and definately not in her presence. She needs motivation, inspiration and love to get through this.

Hotas... Thank you so much for your reply.
Unfortunately, she passed away the day after going into a coma, and she actually woke up to see her children as they came into the hospital room, and as they went outside for a minute, she passed away. Its as if she knew her time was coming and she didnt want anyone in the room when it happened.

Take care.

Oh, I am so sorry about that. I am glad she got to see her children though, and she is in a better place. God bless.

Hi white,

bascily a come is when the brain has forced itself to sleep. It is rumered that someone in a coma can, on a subconcious level, hear you. I've heard lots of stories of ppl who have come out of a coma just by the presence of a loved one.

Hope that helps.

Take care
