Glad to hear he's still with us... Dunno which hospital they took him to, but I've been directing healthy vibes toward all of them I've passed. I shall continue to do so.

Rhino-This is wonderful news. The fact that there is no paralysis is just great news. Sounds like Tom is going to be eventually Okay. Get some sleep man. Our thoughts will be him and you.
Check out below:
The treatment of Brain Hemorrhage depends on its location and severity so does the success of any surgery. There are few treatments available for Brain Hemorrhage such as Diagnostic Radiology, Interventional Radiology and Microsurgical Techniques and proper treatment is selected depending upon the type of Brain Hemorrhage. In most cases, surgery is employed in order to remove the spilt blood and stitch the artery to stop the blood leakage. In treating the Brain Hemorrhage by surgery has its own pros and cons wherein the patient can successfully come out of the deadly situation or he/she may loose life or it may happen that the patient might have to give up on functionality of his/her body organ(s) as an after-effect of the stroke (After all it depends on Luck, Doctor and Severity of BH).
If there had been functionality issues they would have surfaced by now.

He is going to be kept in the hospital for a few weeks, and they are trying to determine the cause of the hemorrhage.

Your thoughts and prayers are appreciated so much right now. I hope to deliver good news when this is over.

Thank you.

Glad I read the whole thread .
Great news that he's still fighting and in with a great shout .
