The Neurologist came in yesterday and reported that Vic has very slow brain activity meaning that there is presumed neurological damage and does not expect that he will recover. Vic has been totally non responsive to any stimulus at this point as both the nurse and doctor demonstrated to us. Reba signed a DNR today and presuming there is no change they will plan to remove the respirator at some point. Rebabs daughter Judy is coming into town. I wish that there was better news to tell and a miracle would be welcomed at this point but Reba is a strong woman and is doing very well under the strain and difficult circumstances. She has been getting calls from friends from all over the country and around the world and has been happy to hear from everyone. They were glad to leave their freezing northern home for the winter and under these sad circumstances Reba is very relieved to be here with our caring folk community. Once again FYI...
