For my cousin

[BlackSTX]

Thank You!

Just recieved and update, during the night he developed a seepage of cerebral fluid and has had his blood pressure drop. They will have to perform surgery soon to try and stop this.

We never always know what God's will is, but seek to understand that in times it's not in line with what we seek, it has been for the best outcome.

Thank You Corey!

Just a short update.... They did surgery yesterday to stop the seepage, went very well. I hear my cousin is in good spirits, and pretty sorry about what he has done, but already trying to look ahead.
Still no solid word on his vision, but I never count anything out, miracles have happened that have been much more dramatic than restoring someone sight.

Thanks again everyone!

Thank You! I have heard that they now have him in a regular room, and have even had him up and walking, which is good. No other changes yet, but any bit of recovery is better than the alternatives.

Thanks for the prayers everyone!

Just to update you on my cousin's progress. His spirits are pretty high, despite still not having any sight. His sense of smell and taste had been lost, but are starting to slowly return. He did say every once in a while he can make out a shape or silhouette, but only for a split second. A lot of the swelling he had is gone, and he really looks much more like himself too.

He also mentioned that they will do another CAT scan later this week, and if everything looks good, more stitches will come out and he may be able to go home shortly afterward. Possibly as early as next Monday.

There's still a ways to go, learning to read braille and adjust to functioning without sight, but he seems to be up for the challenge.

Thanks again!
