How likely is it that she will pull through? Details inside.

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:I’m sorry for your friend’s grave illness and dire straits. Given her state as you have described, and the fact that she’s in a hospital – presumably in the Intensive Care Unit – and unresponsive, there’s nothing that you could send that would help her at this time. A visit, if you will even be allowed to make it into her presence, may be invaluable if she somehow does respond to your voice or touch. But that may be moot, since visitors often aren’t allowed into the presence of such an ill person (especially where respiratory illness and infection are present) because of the extreme likelihood that you may introduce some new pathogen, however unintended, which could tip the balance for her and cause her death. However, I’m sure that her family would take some comfort that a friend is aware and cares about their daughter or sister. So I’d still suggest the visit. You may be able to bring them something, even if only your presence and an occasional cup of coffee or something. Good luck to you, to them, and of course to her.
