Alan Update #3

Filed under: Alan's Progress — admin @ 22:43

Alan is in the neurological ICU unit.  Although he is sleeping, he did open his eyes a few times and said a few words but is pretty much still out of it.  He has a good grip with his right hand but his left side is currently non-responsive.  Everyone seems very positive about how he is doing.

We shall see how he is in the morning, thanks for your continued prayers and support!

Alan’s Army Update 2

Filed under: Alan's Progress — admin @ 14:35

The Dr. just called us in the waiting room. After 3 hours and 45 minutes they are now starting to close up. He believes they got all the tumor out but won’t know for sure until another MRI. They left a ventricular drain in for now as the tumor reached into a space that normally has fluid and this will also allow them to easily monitor his pressure. He reiterated that Alan will likely have weakness on his left side that will hopefully be transitory. Hopefully within a few hours he will be in ICU and we will be able to see him.

Thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers.

Andrew
