Impossible news
It is with great sadness that I write this update. It was determined today, based on MRI results, that Tyler is in a permanent vegetative state. The front portion of his brain has been severely damaged by a massive stroke. My Indy parents are waiting to talk to the neurologist before making any decisions. None of us were prepared for this scenario. It just wasn't an option. I'm in shock and I know anyone reading this is experiencing the same reaction. I don't even know how to ingest this news. How did this happen??? My Dad and step-mom are heading back to Indianapolis, and I'm sure I won't be far behind. More later...

Oh, sweet Dionne and family.....I know a little about how that kind of diagnosis/prognosis feels. It's kind of like "the meds aren't working any more and there's nothing we can do". I am shocked (you were right on there) and so sad about this....and am holding you all close in love and light. This process....is gut-wrenching. If you fly into O'Hare and need a place to stay - you know how to find me. Hugs.....and big shoulders for to sob on.
