Update post #41 - Prayers please for my brother - Page 5 - Maltese Dogs Forum : Spoiled Maltese Forums

**maggieh** · 12-25-2012, 05:51 PM

We had a Christmas gathering at my nephew's last night, and my sister-in-law was there. My brother is making progress, although we still wouldn't call his condition "good." The bleeding has stopped completely according to yesterday's CT, but he still doesn't want to do anything except lay quietly in a dark room. When asked to interact, he will, and he is coherent and answers questions correctly, but he doesn't want to really talk with anyone.

My SIL is hanging in there - she is a very strong woman and has already realized this is going to be a very long recovery, but the important thing is he will survive and likely recover fully. She is very appreciative of all of the prayers! Thank you all very much!

Maggie, this is good news! Let's all continue to pray for complete healing of your brother.

Keeping your brother in my thoughts.

It's good to hear an update maggie, he's improving thank goodness. I'm sure it's very stressful for you all, sending more good thoughts and prayers.

Maggie - I know that this is so hard for all of you and will be a long journey but I believe with prayer and medical help, he will come through this just fine. Give him some time...his brain went through major trauma but I'm so glad that they expect a complete recovery.
