End stage liver disease with sever brain damage. Could he hear me after he became comatose?

Posted , 4 users are following.

My husband died from end stage liver disease and was given 2 weeks before death. We moved him to a hospice where he was for one week the first 3 days he was still able to talk and communicate but he than slipped into a comatose state. He would wrinkle his nose when I talked to him but I don't know if it was because he could hear me or if it was just something that happened. The day he died he was looking at me but his facial expression was showing me he was crying. I told him I loved him and it was okay to go, gave him kiss on his forhead and hand and left because I had to get home for the kids. He died 10 minutes after I left and I don't know if he could hear me or not does anyone know if it's possible he heard me.

    Hello

    ​I have learnt from various peoples experiences in life, that even when unconscious the senses and hearing are able to continue to function. It is possible that your dearly beloved could still hear your voice. I hope this is of some comfort and help.

    ​I have prayed that you will receive comfort and healing. Amen.

    ​With Heartfelt Regards
