Update On Christmas Ghost’s Son
From TMFo on the website:
***UPDATE! 12:51 AM CST, 12/12/09***
I just heard from Ghost. Her son is alive, off the ventilator and breathing on his own. They repaired the fractures to his face, but the skull fracture is still bad, running an hand-span along his left temple. They don’t know the extent of the damage to his left eye. He still has bleeding in his brain, and he can talk a little, though most of it isn’t making sense yet. From what I gather, he has some degree of awareness, and that is an excellent sign. He goes in for CT scans tomorrow (Sunday). When he was admitted, they gave him the lowest possible score for survival. As best as they can tell, his brain was without oxygen for at least 8 minutes, but the hypothermia slowed him down enough. Best case scenario, he is looking at several months of hospitalization.
He has beaten the odds, so please, continue to pray or send good vibes, or whatever it is your particular belief system does. He’s been moved from ICU to Intensive Head Trauma Rehabilitation Unit.
Please, continue praying for this young man and his family!
Im glad to hear he has improved and theres good news….
