There are some new likes on the page and I have had some questions pop up from those who may not know my brother very well. In short.....on June 20th, my brother was admitted to the hospital with a very high white bloodcell count. For a couple of days, doctors were unsure what exactly was going on with him. They soon discovered that he had a staph infection in his bloodstream, which also affected a heart valve. He was very confused and neurologists were consulted and later confirmed that he suffered a small stroke in the right cerebellum. He has been in ICU for much of his hospital stay and remains there at this time. Currently, he is on a ventilator for breathing issues and infection in his lungs. This is a very short summary of what all has taken place over the past three weeks. All posts will remain on the page, should you care to read them. On behalf of my brother and family, I thank each and every follower of the page for your love, support, concern, phone calls, texts, words of encouragement, and most importantly, prayers. Prayers are going up around the world and this kid is a FIGHTER. He has been through SO much in his life and we know that soon we will be looking back at this as a bump in the road of life! :) THANKS A MILLION! ~Allison
