Can A Person Recovering From A Diabetic Coma, Be Able To Hear?
I am visitng someone in a care home who is recovering from a diabetic coma, they are unable to communicate verbally or write and appear to be physically challenged confined to a bed, why has this happened and are they still able to hear whats going around them?

hi welcome to healthcaremagic
Any patient who is recovering from coma of any origin will take sometime to totally recover. Coming to full cognition and interact with people may take some more time as senses improve gradually.
He may be able to hear but still not be able to express till his speech domain starts operating.
wait till he recovers completely
All the best
