The good news is that Mike came through 5 1/2 hours worth of brain surgery. The first critical step in recovery is surving the surgery. Apparently the surgeons had planned to wait until after Christmas to perform the surgery but we heard that he may have taken a turn for the worse, despite previous positive responses to a cocktail of medication.
Next is months worth of recovery and therapy. Please keep your thoughts and prayers coming.
Tell Mike that gramma Fran is praying for him.
