It looks like coma not sleep. / A person will get up in a few hours... Awakening depends on the cause of coma - Undiagnosed coma is a dangerous situation - it is often called a comma before full stop...Only the treating doctor can give any idea...
Take care Wishing speedy recovery God bless Good luck
