I'm so sorry Tonya. Please know that I've sent out a special prayer for you and all of your family. Please keep us updated.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

That sounds awful, so sad. Sending lots of positive thoughts to Guy and your whole family. {{{hugs}}}

Thank you, everyone. I just got home from the hospital. Apparently, he was drinking at a party last night. He was drunk and decided to go for a ride on one of those stupid motorized scooters that all the kids have. Some guy driving by found him laying in the road.
It's not clear what happened because the scooter was sitting straight up on it's kickstand. The guy that found him may have subconsciously stood the scooter up. If not, Guy must have stopped to light a cigarette (there was a cigarette and lighter next to him) and fell backwards. I asked the doctor if with the trauma it was possible that he was hit by someone from behind. The doctor told me that the police are investigating that and it is very likely. The doctor suggested that I do not tell the family that for now; it'll cause more anguish.
So anyways, he is 95% brain dead and when the life support is pulled, he has a 1% chance of living. Everyone went home to get some sleep tonight. In the morning, it is Guy's parents wishes that all the friends and family decide together on rather or not to pull the plug. Please pray that everyone has the sense to let him rest in peace. No one wants to live like a vegetable.
It's sad, he was going to be 22 next Wednesday. I hope if anything comes out of this, people will realize that drinking and partying to hard isn't so cool afterall. And that those scooters are no joke. Anyways, thank you for your thoughts.
p.s. One blessing out of this, all of Guy's organs are alive and well and the family and hospital are prepared to donate them.

Thank you, everyone. My MIL just talked to the doctor, nothing changed last night for the better or the worst. I'm leaving right now to go back. I'll keep you posted.
Thank you Wolfie!
Tonya I just saw this thread! Prayers that Guy will survive this. My neighbor had a fall last year while doing an overnighter with a mentally retarted young man. Gail apparently hit her head and was knocked unconcious for 36 hours before she was found. She also was given very little chance of survival, declared brain dead, and the doctors wanted the family to take Gail off life support. By some miracle Gail survived! She had to undergo a lot of therapy, but she is back with her children and able to drive etc. I hope the same miracle comes through for Guy.

If he is unsavable, as they will find out as time passes, it is a blessing that his family is willing to have his organs donated to save others' lives. It is one blessing amidst a tragedy. I do hope others around him will learn from this awful, awful experience.
My prayers are with his family and loved ones.
omg!I just saw this thread .... I am sorry to hear this....... all of you guys will be in my thoughts and prayers
