They didn't explain much to me while I was in the coma. If they did, I have no recollection.

They aren't going to wake him up from the coma until they think he can breathe on his own. They determine that by dialing back how much help the ventilator is providing.

They may bring him out long enough to ask a question and stick him with a pin to see if he still has cognitive function.
