Ok here goes a guess
Babies usually utter their first word after their first birthday, and seeing as how the baby in this story is just babbling I can assume it is anywhere between 8 and 10 months of age. That means that Mercury has been in a coma for 8-10 months, at which point he will have suffered irreversibly brain damage and his muscles will have deteriorated to the point where cannot walk by himself.
