Default Aneurysms

Hey everyone. I need a little input.
My girlfriend's father had a Aneurysm rupture over the weekend, luckily near a hospital, he is alive and lies in a medically induced coma.
Unfortunately they are not able to measure the damage at this time or really give a long term prognosis until swelling in the brain goes down and blood is drained. This could be days or weeks. If he makes it to the recovery stage there are major hurdles but for now it is one step at a time. I suppose at this stage I am just looking for some first hand information...does anyone have experience dealing with this sort of brain injury? What was the process? Expectations? Recovery...or not?
Thanks.
