I have more of a question than a comment. My cousin was involved in a car accident approximately 3 weeks ago. He is currently in a coma. He opens his eyes but does not respond to anything else. What is his prognosis? Will he wake up? And if so, will he be himself again?

Mine is not a comment but a question:
What is the emergency treatment for a diabetic who has fainted? We didn't know her. We only knew she was diabetic. We had not sugar, juice, fruit or water with us, but she couln't have swallowed anything anyway, as she had passed out.
We didn't know whether she needed sugar or whether she's had too little or too much insuline. We called the ambulance, but is there something we could have done, if we had been unable to call an ambulance? Is there a ba...

My mum had a diabetic hypo and fell downstairs and had to have an operation on her brain to release the pressure.

Coma is not at all a disease. It is a temporary arrest of human heating elements of oxygen which are being splitted and rotating with the blood cells. In Sanskrit it is identified as "KARMA KEVALA" We can rearrange this blood cells through NaNo therapy, a vedic tradition ruled in India in Pre- Buddhist era. I am doing PhD in this. If I get a sponsor to visit the patients and permitted to light a lamp burnt with herbal oil, I am sure we can recover them. Will any one come forward?
