Unhappy

Brandy,
I will be certain to include you, Brian and his family, M and her family, in my prayers.
I know this has come as quite a shock to everyone, and I certainly pray for peace and strength for all involved in the days to come.
Please let us know updates as you are able!
(((warm hugs)))
Sally

I wanted to post an update for you guys who were awesome enough to respond to my initial request.

Brian is doing much better today…he has two broken (possibly crushed, I’m not sure, this has all been second hand) vertebrate but they are located in areas where paralysis isn’t an issue, which is a relief. He has/had a fairly serious brain bleed, but it was located in an area caused less damage than it could have, the bleeding has stopped on its own without invasive medical intervention.

My friend told me that he may be discharged from the hospital as early as Monday, but there is some confusion about where he will go, either to a physical therapy center or home with a PT person coming in a once a day and a full time nurse.

In the end, he seems to have pulled thru beautifully, and I am so grateful! He has a long, long road a head of him…I am so thankful that the bleak outcome I was given last night has not come to pass…

If you wouldn’t mind, please keep praying for a speedy recovery…thank you everyone

Brandy,

I can't believe I missed this thread earlier...I'm glad Brian is doing better. I will add my prayers for him and his family, hoping his recovery is fast and smooth.

Also adding prayers for M, for you, and M's family.
