There's a chance he may one day wake up, and when he does he'll slowly make his way to the meeting area, passing out every 2 steps and spaming you with passing out messages, eventualy he may get to legendary in something and have the stats to overcome the pain.
In the end tho, its really much more merciful to set his bed outside for the next goblins eige to take care of, his mother would have wanted it that way.

See, this is the kind of thinking that comes from thinking of your Dorfs as means. Your Dorfs are means, they are ends in and of themselves. Crippled dorfs should be provided a comfortable living space until they go mad or die of old age, not exterminated like animals. This is an honest dorf peasant, not a thieving kobold or a horde of cats or a noble.

This is true. I use some wounded dorfs as marksdorfs because they refuse to sparr. I also use them as guards since they can't become champions and kill criminals as efficiently that way.
However if the dorf has a broken or mangled spine he won't be doing much of anything at all ever again.

When asked why there were so many young soldiers in his army, Napoleon replied...

"A boy can stop a bullet as well as a man."

I think something along those lines can be applied here.
