Cannot wake up 7 days after brain hemmorage surgery

My father does not wake up after 7 days of brain surgery, there is some blood leak from his brain and doctor said they must do a surgery. After the surgery , my father doesn not wake up until now. The doctor test his response and they said he is in good condition. Sometimes he can move his arm or leg and doctor check the pupi of his eyes with flashlight and it is good but does not wake up at all. In addition, my father also has parkinson disease before this operation. Anyone can help with this situation?

He has had brain surgery and not a minor operation at that. His brain is resting , from the narcoses he will need a year to get back to normal. Some people have a harder time coming out of there narcoses than others.
Having parkinsons doesn't help matters either. It is a disease that demands a lot of enegy from the brain just to keep awake.
Give it time. He has his angels on his side
