Here is another little piece for you all written by Cayley! When shes impatient and feeling well she enjoys being able to write these for you all, not only to answer your question but to offer you a perspective from her side of it all. So please ask away, because you may not be the only person wondering!
As you all know, I have been in a couple of medically induced comas. Many people have asked me if I hear or dream during these comas. I do not. Being in a coma is quite like a dreamless sleep. I go to sleep and it feels like no time has passed before I wake up but it's really been three days. And let me tell you, it is weird. Having your days just be gone like that. I don't hear anything either. The thing is, the coma is the easy part, it's waking up that's hard. Three days of your body laying there without movement really takes a toll on your physical wellbeing. And just waking up with the epidurals is so confusing and scary, I cry every time. After that wears off comes the pain. I couldn't do anything for myself. I couldn't even stand up anymore. That's just a little insight into what it's like to be in a coma.
