After speaking with the ICU nurse, we are back to square one. Bob had a second bleed on the brain, so now we wait for the possibility of vasospasms, which can cause the brain's blood vessels to collapse. The bleed was caused by the shunt that was put in to treat the collection of "water on the brain". No matter the cause, there was still bleeding on the brain. If it's not one thing, it's another. It seems like you can't win no matter how you look at it.
Many of you are praying for him, please continue.
