Awful news... Dad was alone in the room when the neurologist told him that it was time to pray for a miracle. Clayton's EEG was showing signs that his brain was dying. There's no sharp waves that indicate the thought processing of a healthy brain. In their place are tiny waves that are barely there. He's so close to having flat lines which would mean that his brain is no longer functioning. It's just unthinkable that Clayton had a genius brain last week and may wake up with a simple mind. We've speculated that maybe he wanted to experience both ends of the spectrum in one lifetime.
I've tried to lift up my parents' hopes. In part, because I don't want to hear the bad news. I also know that hope, prayer, positive thinking and being proactive can all work miracles. If we loose focus of that, the hopelessness creeps in and takes root. I feel like I can't let that happen.
