Grandma is in a coma after stroke?

My grandma was found on Thursday burning in a fever and breathing on her own. She was not responding to touch and was rushed to a nearby hospital. At the first hospital, they found pneumonia, high white blood cell count, and blood clot in the neck which resulted in ischemic stroke. Can you provide more inside about the stroke? The doctors for my grandma are not saying anything.

Google ischemic stroke for more details. It depends on the extent of the stroke, but she would have to go to stroke rehab once she is discharged.
