Question

Can a 97 yr. old woman survive from being in a coma. I am praying my grandmother lives. She fell.?

Answer 1

No matter the odds anything is possible. Not to long ago my 87 year old grandfather was in a really bad car accident, he broke 11 ribs, had a colapsed lung, had his hip broken in 3 places as well as other serious injures. We were basically being told that his prognosis was very bad and that in all lieklyhood he wouldnt live out the night. but he did live, then they kept saying he was getting worse and probably wouldnt make it and for several days we all thought that this could be it. He eventually started to get better, and though he has some rehab to get through to be back to normal he is living at home now and starting to get along like he used to.

If your grandmother lives thats great its more time you get to spend learning form her wisdom. If she passes away then i am sure she lived a long and full life, and she will get to be with you in a different way. If you are praying for her than i am sure you know she will go to heaven where you can talk to her whenever you need her.

good luck my thoughts are with you.

Answer 2

In a coma anything can happen and maybe, she will wake up, but although I wish you and your grandmother the best. You should also brace yourself for the worst.

Answer 3

Sorry to say this but I would say least likely. 97-years is a long time and I'm sure she has lived a life to the fullest.

Answer 4

if she can't make it, let her rest in peace, the heaven is waiting for her..

Answer 5

give her UNLIMITED ICE CREAM

Answer 6

There is always Hope, never surrender your Hope.  I'm so sorry you have to go through this.  I will pray for your Grandmother.

Answer 7

Odds are not good. 97 is pretty old to count on a recovery!

Answer 8

Very sorry for your family. The coma in itself is not life threatening. When elderly people are kept still they tend to catch pneumonia and do not survive that.
