My mom suffered a hemorage like that, just before she died. The docs said that if she recovered, she would be unable to communicate, stuck in her brain. They said that the size of her initial one made it highly unlikely she could recover. After the first night, the size of the blood bleed made it impossible to ever recover. Our family doc said it was just like going to sleep, and we made sure she was on pain killers, just to be safe. Mom waited until I left the second night, then she let go. The nurses said it is often the case, since they can't bear to leave their loved ones, they wait until they are alone, or with the nurses to let go. I kept telling her to go to Dad as soon as she saw him, and I'd take care of everything else. I hope she found Nirvana, and left the pain. Wow.
