Well yesterday Bruce, Sean's brother, had to be taken from work by ambulance to the hospital. He was having seizures and they couldn't stop them, so they had to medicate him into a coma. He is in ICU and has had many tests run. Luckily-I guess-the tests so far are coming up negative. However, they still don't know what is causing this and thus far has been unsuccessful at pulling him out of the coma. Each time they try, he begins shaking or seizing again. We are told that they don't believe it is due to imbalances in body or a result of kidney issues.
Our sister-in-law and in-laws are doing well handling it. The kids (as of 7pm) are unaware. Amy and her parents were able to get the boys to their sports and such without question. Hopefully they find out something today, so Amy can figure out how to handle breaking any news to the kids. We ask your prayers for the whole family. Those babies can't possibly understand all that is going on. How can they when as adults we don't.
I will update and or clarify this as I learn more. I know Amy won't be able to update hers during this time.
Update 9/19:
Things are moving slowly getting the tubes removed. Beck is asking why dad hasn't called which I'm sure is heartbreaking. All are in good spirits-well as good as can be expected which is amazing since he's been in the hospital since Monday.
The local news station did a story last June, so Sean contacted them to see if they could do an update. They did last night on the 5pm news. They also got a contact for us in Nashville to try and do a story here to help find a donor for him. We are due to speak to them on Monday. Here is the link to the update they aired:
