    Im sure everything will be fine. Keep your head up, and tell her we need her witty remarks to keep you in line.

    I don't know Brett personally but I know who you are from the show scene. I will pray for you two, and hope she gets well soon.

    I am up and back in the waiting room, from 7am-9am I have to leave the room. She had a pretty stable night, I slpet in the room. She has been running a slight fever all night and has not really given me any more movements when I talk to her, which is kind of depressing to me, becuase I take her hand movements as signs she hears me, But I am trying to not let that affect me. About 4am when they were putting a new tube in her mouth they had to hold her right arm and leg down because she was trying to fight them doing it, I dont know how much of that is reflex or how much is her just showing she doesnt like what they are doing. I didnt get any sleep, The room was literally like a cooler because of her fever so I was freezing all night and a few times I have to leave the room while to do routine things through the nigjht.

    She is stable still, so thats all I can really say.... we are on day #3 now, I do not uslally pray, but last night I begged for her to be brought back to me.... I know you all care so much, but you need to understand.... if she does not pull through and she gives up the fight or her brain does not let her come back..... I will be lost in this world, she is what gives me reason to even try to be a better man every day of my life, and to want to be on this earth... without her.... What is my reason for being?

    Thank you ALL for everything, some of you I saw sent Paypal donations, and you all are amazing..... It does help ease my mind on that front and allows me to focus it on Leisa 100%.

    To those of you who have come out, and I wouild name names but I would feel like complete sh*t if I missed someone when I do, so just know, YOU ALL are amazing to me, some each night have stayed here with me till midnight (Last night till almost 1am when I had to finally go back to her room and attempt to get some sleep)

    To those of you praying and spreading the word for others to pray, THANK YOU as well, that is just as important as anything else and means just as much.

    IA has really rallied behind Leisa and behind me to keep me strong for her, It is hard, I wont lie... I have not had a day since Wednesday night when she came in that I have not cried atleast 12 times or more...... Leisa is my everyting.....

    Baby... you have to come home.... Please......

    Still got Leisa in my prayers Brett! This really is a heartbreaking story and I cant even begin to imagine how you feel and I know its got to be hard to be strong for her and yourself but it sounds like you are doing an amazing job! Not giving up is key....and I know what you mean by signs...Im a big believer as well! and you should take it all as signs cause maybe thats how she is tryin to let you know shes still here and is tryin a little at a time to fight more and more to come back. Its amazing what love will do!...Hang in there Brett!

    Which hospital is she at? My mom is the former VP of Nursing at Northside but used to work at several other ATL hospitals as well. She might know someone at the hospital that could work some of those costs down for you. Let me know if you want me to ask.

    keep your head up bro

    One of my good friends was under for about 30 days and he's up and well and its been over a year now, He was in a coma so long that he needed rehab afterwards to relearn how to walk, etc... he had muscle atrophy or whatever too... lost a LOT of weight.... but now he's 100% back to normal

    EVERYONE thought he was done for, including some doctors, but we kept on... kept visiting/praying... and He woke up a month later. So yeah 3 days is nothing, her body just needs to work itself out of it, which she will do...

    Hold in there man. You're doing the best thing you can by providing so much support. Nothing heals someone faster than a great family and friends.

    I'll be calling my mom in about an hour. I'll let you know what she says, at least I can get the names of the top doctors for you.


    Just got off the phone with my mom, I'll be getting an email from her soon with info. Whats the best way to get it to Brett?

    My thoughts and prayers go out to you, her, and the family.

    Stay strong.

    I'm very glad to hear her condition is getting better. I heard the news when I was out of town. As somewhat of a neighbor to you and your wife, I will be continuously keeping her, you, and your families in my thoughts. May God continue to bless you with better days and a full recovery from her.

    This morning the took her down for her Cat Scan, they said her body did well for the move and she is back in her room, and vitals are stable. No real changes except her Kidneys are getting back within normal ranges today and they have made a slight adjustment on the breathing machine this morning. Instead of it doing it all for her, they are trying to let her do some of it, but the machone is still doing it just not 100% now, I dont know what the CT scan will say, But I hope the breathing change is a step.... God I need her back.

    I told you, Brett, all is not lost. She can pull through this. The body/mind are amazing things. Many times they do things well beyond what the doctors predict. The lungs will pull through and so will she.

    According to her AVATAR, she will be back. She needs to snap out if it simply to see how many people were there by her side. Just knowing that she received SOOO MUCH Support and Love will be enough to heal her. Love works wonders.

    Brett, just like what I told you in the family area, you're my inspiration man. You are doing not just your best but THE BEST job at handling this deal.

    Well they took her off all sedations today and she has not woken up yet or even tried yet, the Doctor said if she doesnt in a couple days she may never. So guys, I need your prayers more than ever.

    I just called ICU to see if she has changed any before I go to bed, and she has not. Not even a movement from her tonight yet, not even a flinch of a finger. Im getting really scared
