Correct, that is what the mind allows us - we just call it free will.
Honestly, your counter-factual of the coma patient has me stumped, but I'll have to think about it. If the coma patient does regain consciousness, then what does that mean about their reality? An intuition of multiple minds existing comes to my mind, but I don't know how I want to formulate it yet. It could also have to do with the functionality of the mind itself - it may not have ceased, but simply stop functioning in its awareness of what it is creating.
Brevity is the soul of wit.
