Hello,
So sad to listen to such a bad state of your friend. Well as you are telling that brain in the neck, it is called medically as herniation of brain. It shows the impacts over the head were very severe. The prognosis in your friend case is very very poor. I'm so sorry to say this that the chances for your friend to come out from such a very serious critical state are very very less (0.00001%).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Abdullah
