It was awful. But at least we knew where he was.

did he ever wake up? :(
13057039, Nope.

Truthfully it was tough to know if it was a coma by definition or just a vegetative state. At any rate, his family pulled the plug 4 years in and he lasted 3 weeks after that. Which was insane. Horrible situation all around.
13057040, sorry you guys had to go through that.

unless there is a bloody mess in a apt that implies foul play I will always have hope the missing friend will pop up one day when they want to be found...

but a coma? nah...
13057185, i gotta pick?

13057195, depends on the circumstances of the missing friend and the coma

too many variables invovled in each. But simply put, at least with the coma there's more that you know. There prognosis is a better known quantity than the missing person.

The missing person probably has the highest chance of recovery with no issues tho.

I guess for a few days i'd rather have the friend missing. After a week, i'd rather have them in a coma.
