“When I Sang To My Mom While She Was In A Coma And She Started Tapping Along…”

A woman lays in a hospital bed in a coma. A man sits next to her bed, holding her hand. He's singing

There are all sorts of reasons that someone might be in a coma. So, while it’s true that people survive them all the time, it can still be incredibly nerve-wracking to experience someone you love being in one. This is something that a man named Kole Larsen understands all too well. At one point, his mom was in a coma. Although we don’t know why that was the case, we do know this: Kole thought he was going to lose her.

While visiting Mom, Kole would often sing a song for her — evidence has shown that people in a coma can actually hear what’s going on around them. Plenty of research has been done on this, but one day, Kole had the miraculous opportunity to witness firsthand proof. While he sang, Mom began to tap along. See this heartwarming moment, and get an update on Mom, in the video below.

The pure joy in Kole’s eyes as his mom taps along is indescribable. This sign of hope must have been exactly what he needed in that moment. Best of all, though, Mom went on to make a full recovery! Now, instead of tapping, she’s able to sing right along with him. Our love for one another, and our shared connection to music, are such powerful things!

While Mom is in a Coma, Her Son Sings a Song That Has Her Tapping Along

“If that’s not an incredible connection I don’t know what is,” someone in the comments writes, another adding, “Having a son I know she fought so hard to stay with you.”

“Lost my mom in September very suddenly, keep up holding her tight and making memories,” a thoughtful commenter advises. “Never know how much you miss her till she is gone.”
