Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
Stage 4 brain cancer carries bad prognosis.
And since he is in coma, this will worsen the prognosis further.
In my opinion, in stage 4 brain cancer life expectancy is less than 6 months.
But with coma life expectancy will decrease further. May be less than 1 month.
