If he is sleeping so much because of encephalopathy. He needs to be evaluated by a liver doctor at earliest. He may also require hospitalization depending on his condition. If you wish, you can share his reports right now. Including ultrasound. Once you share the reports call me once. And then I will be able to help you asap.
