What Is The Prognosis Of Decreasing Heart Rate In A Coma Patient?

Hi..My dad is 51 years old, he had mild stroke and in the hospital right now. They take him there yesterday afternoon after work. Now the doctors said hes in coma, and they said theres no more enough time for him to wake up.. He got his life support, and his heart beats are decreasing. Though it hard to accept it, im asking if there is still posibility for him to wake up, just a lil chance, if we do not unplug the ventilator machine??

I am very sorry for your dad. It's difficult to say something w/o knowing the exact situation. Surely, the doctors in hospital will do their best.
Best regards
