Doctors have started to bring Joan Rivers out of the medically-induced coma she was placed in following her hospitalization on Aug. 28, amid fears that she could be left in a vegetative state, a new report claims.
Joan Rivers’ family is waiting to see how the 81-year-old comedian responds after doctors started trying to pull her out of a medically-induced coma on Aug. 31, according to a new report. The comedian was rushed to the hospital after she stopped breathing during surgery on her vocal chords and went into cardiac arrest. Since then, she’s been dependent on life support treatment.
Doctors at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City began to lift Joan from her medically induced coma on Aug. 31, New York Daily News reports.
“The waking-up process has begun and will take until Tuesday,” a source told the outlet. “There is real concern that the part of the brain that controls motor skills may have been compromised, leaving her as either a vegetative state or in a wheelchair.”
