I arrived this morning.

She's in a medically induced coma. They lowered her core body temp to around 32C. They'll be doing further tests tomorrow AM to see where she stands.

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers everyone.

It may be hours or even a couple of days before they know how much if any brain damage was done. We know eventually, if she gets through this, she'll need bypass surgery.

I'll keep everyone updated.

We are doing ok now. At this point it's just a waiting game.

If anyone is interested, this is a little about the procedure she's going through.

Hey, just posting to let you know I'm thinking about you and your mom. It's pretty much my first thought each time I've logged on over the past day or so. Whenever you feel like you can update us, but please don't rush.
