I don't think people dream when in a coma, for the reason that coma is an extended period of unconsciousness from which a person cannot be aroused even with the most painful stimuli. Coma is not a disease. It is a symptom of a disease or a response to an event, such as a severe head injury, seizure or metabolic problem. Most comas do not last longer than four weeks. Some people in a coma shift to a persistent vegetative state, in which breathing, maintaining normal blood pressure, digesting and eliminating foods continues without the patient's awareness. The vegetative state can last for years or decades. The outcome of a coma ranges from full recovery to death. Whether a person recovers, and to what extent, depends upon the cause of the coma and the type and extent of the brain damage..☺

It's possible. But sometimes we show physical activity when we're dreaming, and when you're in a coma, it's a miracle to see a body part move. I think you could, though.

People in a coma have shown minimal brain activity, suggesting that they do not dream.

It is the closest to death you can get
