So many family and friends were there again on Sunday. Thank you to everyone who came to support Mike and Alisha and show your love and concern for them, their children, and Brenden. It was amazing to see so many people care. You're prayers are being heard, thank you. We went in again to see him and he looks well, not what you would expect to see I know but he really looks good. All the damage is on the inside. The internal bleeding was slowing down at this point but not stopped yet. The kidney will be absorbed by his body. The pressure in his brain went up but they expected that and have an internal monitor measuring the pressure. It will continue to go up the first 72 hours. In the evening they had taken him off the medicine they were giving him to induce a medical coma ( so he won't move and to keep brain activity low) to do a neurological test. I failed to mention that Saturday he gave the nurse a dirty look when she suctioned his mouth (he's on a ventilator to help him breath better and take deep breaths). This made us smile. Mike and Alisha are amazing and know you care thank you again.
