Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers. I expect I am still in shock as this is a real horror story. If he pulls through, the surgeon says it will take at least two weeks to access the extent of his brain damage. You know, it’s such a relief to know that you are all here. No one, not even family really understand addiction like we do. On the upside , he has been taken off the ventilator and is breathing on his. They are hoping to move him out of the intensive care unit tomorrow into the high dependency unit. Unfortunately I work in the ICU and HDU, although not in neurology, so I know already there is a long hard road ahead for the both of us. I’m sorry I don’t interact here and offer support to others as much as I’d like to, but I know you all understand. I contacted an old friend of his earlier and asked him to send me any pics he had.
He sent pictures of my son before he discovered heroin. So young and innocent, and so incredibly happy looking. I wish he had stayed on that path. I’ll keep you all updated .
Love
Ivy ????
