General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear Greetings
Sorry about your mother comatose situation for a long period from my opinion I will suggest that she has very minimal chance of recovering from her present coma situation

Hence my final decision is to remove her from the artificial ventilation.

I hope this helps
