Default Need Prayers Please !!

This happened on Sunday March 11th.........





My wife , Brandi is currently in ICU. I found her not breathing & unresponsive this afternoon...............She had what they thought was a brain aneurysm.

After a hectic 911 experience, 2 hospitals, a few doctors , and an angiogram, ...........they have determined that she had a grade 4 aneurysm.


She has a bleeding in her brain, and she is in poor condition. She currently
needs the help of a respirator to breathe, and hasn't regained consciousness.

The next 24 hours will provide more information, with tests scheduled for the AM. As bad as this sounds,..........the news was WAY WORSE 7 hours ago. She has gone from "no guarantee to make it through the night", to the current good news I have posted.


For all of you that know her,........you know she is a fighter ! Please pray for God to give her the strength to keep fighting. I have know idea how long her recovery will take, or what capacity it will be.


Life can change forever in an instant,........and for the first time in my life,.........I am afraid.


I will post updates on Facebook,....as it is impossible to keep everyone informed via text messages. So,...at least for now,........plane trips for everyone to see her are on hold,......until at least after tomorrow. Doc says it's up to Brandi, on when she decides to wake up. Could be tonight,....could be next week.


All we can do is pray. I do know that we have the most amazing friends and support system that anyone could ask for. I am forever indebted to our friends.


May God Bless all of you.





Here is a pic of her 36 hours before her incident.
