Raising questions about the definition of a vegetative state as well as what to do with people in them, a new study observed the brain of an unconscious patient responding to yes and no questions just like normal.

Mrs. Moe, who is an OR nurse, tells me there has been many cases where an allegedly
unconcious patient was able to recall chatter around an OR table and feel being
operated on. There are also several instances of a patient who was thought to be
in vegetative/coma state, woke up later and recalled people talking though
they couldn't respond. This IS scary stuff! :shock:
