He is in the care of the best doctors here in San Jose and is also in need of all of our prayers, as he is in ICU right now. Lets all please respect his Family and not speculate (i'm not pointing at this site, other people are making rumors). Everyone please be positive and lets come together to be strong for him.
**Update what we have heard so far as of 8am PST 2/8/09:
-He made it through the surgery which was great because they only gave a 5% chance of that.
-They had to drain a hematoma from the skull.
-He has an enlarged brain so they could not close his skull back up, they have to wait for swelling to go down.
-The next 24 hours is critical, so please keep praying! He did get a fever but they are controlling that.
-The promoter has been great getting stuff organized for the family. Lauren and his dad will have a phone line to update people from the hospital.
-It has been about 7 hours since the surgery. Some family is there already whole others are trying to get emergency passports. Please pray for favor in that situation as well.
-They don't know full extent of other injuries yet as they are most concerned with getting swelling down in his brain.
Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers. Jeremy is a tough kid and will fight hard.
Thanks for providing updates.
Best wishes, thoughts, prayers to Jeremy and his family. We are all pulling for Jeremy so let's keep it positive.
Yes, the next day or two will be critical. They will need to keep tabs on the swelling and pressure on his brain, and hopefully that pressure will start to improve. They will also be trying to keep the fever in check. They may have done further x-rays, but ABCs and the head are the priorities at this point. Breathing on his own is a good thing. Probably not stable enough for MRI to evaluate possible spinal problems yet at this point, and usually it is preferred that the person is awake before the spine can be "cleared" or fully evaluated.
Keep us updated, and our thoughts are with him and the family.
Pit Row
