What happened to Chase Carter

Seeing Gamma reminded me of Carter's cousin Chase. I remember he was in a veg. state from the drug OD, but did we hear anything else about him after that? Was he declared dead?

At the nursing home Carter was trying to get Chase to hold a pen to do a drawing or something. Then (or maybe before? I'm not sure) they were going to look at a photography book together and it was frustrating because Chase had limited control over his motor abilities. The moment was supposed to be poignant because before the OD Chase had been, to here Carter describe him, a talented photographer himself. I also vaguely remember a discussion between Carter and Gamma regarding what sort of facility would be appropriate for his long term care (rehabilatative vs. more traditional nursing home). I'm not sure if we were ever given his long term prognosis.
