“How to be in a Coma” examines and universalizes my own experience in a 2-month-long induced coma in 2015. This book allows readers a glimpse into the experience of a comatose child, as well as inspire action to improve the lives of chronically ill children. During the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic - when record numbers of patients are being admitted to ICUs and put into induced comas - I wanted to offer up my own experience in order to provide solace, understanding, and a glimmer of hope.
