After being placed in an induced coma at the University Hospital of Nottingham, Nottingham Forest's Taiwo Awoyini's situation awaits the decision of the hospital's trustee.

Awoyini, who suffered a stroke during surgery, has been in this coma for over three months, leaving his family and loved ones in the dark. The hospital claims it has done all it can to reach a decision with Awoyini's next of kin, but they have yet to come to an agreement.

The surgeon who operated on Awoyini, Dr. Simon Astill, had filed a lawsuit against the Football Association and the player, alleging that Awoyini had refused advice against the surgery. The advised against the surgery due to the risk of cardiac complications based on his medical records.

The litigation remains unresolved ever since Judge Richard Markham ordered on November 4 that the case be transferred to the High Court for a trial.

The situation has shed light on the need for a timely resolution to such cases, not just for Awoyini but for the loved ones of those placed in a coma.

This story will be updated as the situation develops.
