My dad had a stroke and I felt he died already

Hi Guys,

I'm here in Australia and my parents and brother are in America. I just received a really bad news today that my dad was brought to the hospital. My brother told me that my dad called him because he felt dizzy and then his eyes rolled and he called 911. The operator told my brother and mom to lie him on the floor and give cpr. As soon the ambulance arrives and gave him oxygen he breathes normally again. but his blood pressure is 230 something. As soon as my mom got into the hospitals the doctors told her the bad news that there is nothing they can do anymore and it is unoperable and he will never wakes up again nor eat or remember us. I felt devastated when my brother told me that. And the only thing to do is remove him from the ventilator and let him rest but after reading some people experience I changed my mind maybe there is a chance he will wakes up again.
