UPDATE

Sadly the news is not good and what we are praying for is the peaceful passing of Isaak as the damage is way to extensive to his brain.

The doctors are working with his Mother to basically ween him off the coma inducing drugs and let his body do what it will do. His brain has swelled so badly that one side of the brain is essentially dead. A portion of his skull was removed and even that has not stopped the swelling which is now pushing on the brain stem. Since he was apneic for >10 minutes prior to paramedics arriving and intubating, there was also extensive brain damage from anoxia. We do not know when the next update will occur as the process is complicated and obviously very emotional.

I will try and update as I hear any news but we are giving his Mom support but room to deal with this. She and Isaak have a large family surrounding them in support so that is one positive note.

Please let me THANK all of you "Hoggers" who have commented, sent thoughts and prayers our way. It has been felt and helpful. THANK YOU for your ONGOING support.
