Hi, Frankie, An Anchor with ABC news was hit by a roadside bomb some months ago and received a brain injury. One of the key things that saved him was removing the brain from inside the head. Since the brain needs room to swell, if it doesn't get it, then there will be permanent brain injury. I too will pray for your son and family.
God Bless, Cindy p.s. You might want to print pertinent pages to give to your son's doctor. One comment his wife said was that if he had received an injury like this in the US the doctors here wouldn't have known how to treat this (by removing the brain to give it room to swell). http://abcnews.go.com/Health/WoodruffReports/story?id=2900192&page=1
