12 days ago i found my husband hanging he is now in icu in what they call a vegatative state, he is breathing for himself and coughing ,yawning. he is having fits everytime the staff move him or try to do something although these fits r decreasing in intensity and r not as often as they were.

it is still a worry the fits r caused by inflamation of the brain, as u can imagine i am worry to death and livin in limbo hopin that he will wake up each day i visit. the doctors dont help all they do is shoot you down with no hope its always fear the worst from them they dont tell me much at all i just want him to get better and come home……….
