I don't really have an update to tell you but wanted to just check in with our faithful readers. A little more detail on the news we received.
The EEG results showed that my dad is in a deep coma and there is very little brain activity. This is very difficult news for us.
They took him off of sedation at noon and we are waiting, praying, hoping he will wake up and if/when he does that his brain function is okay. (if he wakes up it is likely it would be in these next 48 hours)
The difficulty in the news we received is that due to the findings in the EEG this is statistically not likely.
But we know that God is bigger than statistics and doctors and medicine. As my mom said through her tears, God raised Lazarus. Nathan reminded me that this was through the love of Mary. Please be Mary for my dad.
We just ask you to lay your hands on my dad, from where you are. Light a candle for him . . . sing for him, pray for him.
We are asking God for a miracle.
Lord in your mercy, hear our urgent prayer.

Dear Samuelsons,
