Just got a call from my brother....
Uncle Wayne is in a deep coma and being prepped for surgery now. The brain surgeon had just completed a very long surgery and was telling my family about the surgery need. They asked him when he'd do the surgery and he said that if he was to give him a fighting chance, it had to be done right away.
When he fell, he hit the left side of his head. This shifted his brain to the right side of his head. This has caused hemorraging (sp?), bleeding and blood clots.
I also received an e-mail from my cousin's wife...they live in VT...and she's been told that even if he wakes after surgery, there is a good chance for brain damage....or not waking at all.

I am praying, but just as an encouragement, a friend of ours was recently in a cycling accident and was in a deep coma with a severe brain injury, and he is now making a full recovery! It truly is a miracle. I hope and pray your uncle's surgery goes well. Keep us updated!
