What are you waiting for?
In case you haven't read my Labor Day 2009 blog here is the just of the situation. My uncle was involved in a motorcycle accident Monday while doing a poker run. He received serious head trauma, a collapsed left lung, broken ribs, scraps, bruises, a broken nose, two black eyes, a ventilator to help him breathe and a severe brain bleed.
As of last night, the doctors have informed us there is nothing else they can physically do to help him. The swelling and bleeding in his brain is getting worse. Even if by some miracle the swelling were to go down, he would have permenant and severe brain damage that would require 24/7 nursing care. The ventilator is keeping him breathing, without it he wouldn't be able to do it himself. His left pupil is dilated and fixed which indicates the severity of the brain damage.
The doctors are planning to re-examine him this morning and discuss options with his daughter and son who are 24 and 21. They have decided they will take him off the vent if no progress has been made. :-(
