Just letting you know the latest terrible news.

I have just received this update from my brother.:

You will probably realise by the lack of news over the last few days, that it has been very traumatic for us.

The news on Philip is not good.
Philip remains in an almost coma like condition but is no longer on any drugs to keep him in this state.
The test on his brain yesterday revealed that only 50% is healthy.
They are intending to carry out another scan today and a follow up test next week to see if there is any improvement.
The doctors have given us no reason to believe that his condition will improve and if it does it will take a very long time.
We are now weighing up the options of which hospital he remains in and how soon we can fly him back to the UK.
One good thing was that from yesterday morning to yesterday evening there was a slight improvement with his eye movement.
The doctors believe that his kidneys are now almost functioning normally.
He will tracheotomy today and then be put on a more normal ward soon.
They still need to carry out operations on his legs but this can be done when he is back to the UK.


Trouble is what can you say??
Except we are praying for a miracle.
