I traveled from my college yesterday to see how James is holding up. I didn't really believe what my mum told me because I thought she hid some details from me, I could feel it in her voice. it's normal, doesn't want me to worry too much. So I was down in Seremban yesterday and I saw first hand what's happening to James.
It's a bit worrisome to see him in such a state. He's been scheduled for surgery, but they can't do it because his blood pressure was fluctuating, they've lined him up for a scan to see whether he's brain dead, but they can't do that either because his sodium levels are too high. So, practically, the doctors are doing, and can do, nothing. But James' parents are taking him out for a 2nd opinion, just to be sure of anything.
James isn't doing too well, his heart is at 38% efficiency it's pretty beaten up as well. His left lung has a puncture, he's broken his right leg, his skull is fractured, and pieces of bone lie all over his brain. His face is a bit swelled up, because of the fluid buildup an brain swelling. But in spite of all that bleakness, there's a lot of hope.
James is a strong, good boy, and the Lord is with him. He's managed to wriggle his toes, showing he's not brain dead. Though he's unable to speak or respond in any way, we know he can hear us, and the youth sit around his bed daily, and whisper encouragement. We remind him of all the things left to do, our football match with PJ youths, the DOTA games we've yet to play, the football he loves so much. ( I can't go on, will do, when I get stronger )
