Update Page

As most of you already know, on July 28 my brother had an Arterio-Venous Malformation (AVM) which ruptured in his brain and had to undergo emergency brain surgery to remove it. We've created this website to give everyone brief updates on his status because it has been difficult to keep everyone up-to-date. There aren't words to describe the gratitude we feel for the outcry of support and love that has been shown for Noah. We also appreciate all of the positive energy and prayer that has been directed his way -- and truly believe it is helping him.

Post-Surgery Update

The anesthesiologist and the surgeon just came out and said the surgery went well. We haven't seen Noah yet, but apparently things went as well as they could have.

No word yet on whether a shunt will be necessary - we've been informed that it will take up to 3 months to make that decision. For the next two to three days Noah will have a drain that empties excess CFS (cerebro spinal fluid). Thanks to everyone for their prayers and thoughts. We will update this site again tonight after we see Noah.
