I'm happy to see they didn't take your advice and unplug the life support. That is great news.

Please keep him on your lists. It's still unknown at this time if he has any brain activity; it's now more than three weeks post-accident and he's still not awake and still on full life support.

He's had 2 weeks of brain swelling and his heart stopped for 17 minutes at one point earlier on. He's not in any condition where we can say "ok he's coming out of it." We can't relax and let our guard down! Keep him on your lists! He has a 3 year old son and a wife at home. Pray for them too.

Just got the answer to our question. My cousin is brain-dead. His wife refuses to let him go, hoping/praying that God will make the decision, even though a ventilator could keep him breathing for years. I am praying that God will give her the strength to do what needs to be done. I pray that elp remembers to yank that sucker if the doc ever tells her that I am brain-dead. If she doesn't I'll do my best to haunt her. For all intents and purposes, my cousin is already gone. There's no sense sticking his corpse in a nursing home for years. I am obviously heartbroken. I guess our family saw "signs" that we wanted/were hoping to see. I am rejoicing in the knowledge that my cousin gave his life to the Lord just weeks before the accident. We were brothers for all intents and purposes. I will indeed miss him very much.

That is the best news I have heard about the whole situation. I will keep all of your family in our prayers.

I envy him in many ways. He is away from this world and the BS that it brings.

I understand the pain and suffering your family must be going through. Our prayers are with you and your family.

My prayers are with Brian and his family. We recently spent time at JCMC a good hospital and they treat the patient and family with great care.

I just wanted to let you all know that FreddyKrueger(Ryan Dorton) former poster on here, needs your alls prayers. Last week he went to the hospital thinking he had the flu but they did some test and it was something to do with his liver. He hasn't been to work in two weeks do to all kinds of test they have doing on him. Today he found out that it is enlarge liver. they said they dont know why, but it could be a number of things like cancer, wilson disease, and something else. He is doing fine and all but this has got him worried. I've been bestfriends with him for over 20yrs. We are more like brothers, which some of you know. So if you all don't care to keep him in your all thoughts and prayers we all would greatly appercaite it. If any there is anything you all want to know pm me.

I hate to hear that I wish him well and a speedy recovers and will have him in my prayers

Hate to hear that. Hopefully everything is as minor as it can be. Actually if he hadn't had any problems out of it besides thinking he has the flu, I would think anything that was wrong, was caught very early.
