In need of your thoughts

Welcome back! Coffee's always on around here. Pull up your favorite chair and a grab a cup. Enjoy your visit today! And don't forget to stop back by again soon.

My former brother in law, Aaron, had a stroke last week. They found a

couple of clots – one in his arm, one in his neck. They operated on

the one in his arm but decided to leave the one in his neck alone and

try to dissolve it without surgery as it was too risky to do the

operation. He was doing well and they sent him home over the weekend.

We saw him at Easter and he looked pretty good. A little slow and

favoring his left side a bit but otherwise seemed ok.

However, earlier this week he had another stroke and went back to the

hospital. They decided to give him another 2 days to try to get the

clot to dissolve and if that didn’t help, would put a stent in his

brain artery.

I just got word about half an hour ago that he’s had yet another

stroke and the MRI shows severe bleeding in the brain. They are not

going to be able to do anything for him.

He’s young – about 48, I believe – with a wife and a beautiful 8 year

old daughter. They could all really use your thoughts and prayers and

healing energies right now.
