[Serious] Good thoughts for my husband's sister, please?

My sister-in-law had an aneurysm late last night and can't speak due to pressure on her brain. She can understand and nod her head.

She squeezed my hand tight when I held hers; that should be a good sign. She's having an angioplasty and they say she'll recover. Will know more later. From what I've read there are degrees of recovery depending on the damage done.

Meanwhile, I figured help from you folks sure couldn't hurt.

You have our hopes and prayers. Treatment is so much better than it was just a few years ago, and I think that you can hope for a good recovery.

She's got my prayers, I'm visualizing the problem melting and disappearing! Alain is doing vigil at the cemetery (she's been there for 28 hours so far) but when she gets home I'll ask her to light a candle.

Thank you. The neurologist is waiting for a neurosurgeon's input before doing the angioplasty. Meanwhile, they say she's stable.

Expect we'll go back to the hospital when husband gets home from work.

They saw an arteriovenus malformation using an IV camera (angio-something) yesterday, but it didn't stay visible. Things are too complicated for me to explain right now and am not sure how it'll turn out.

Still, wanted to check in and thank everyone for good wishes and prayers. We were at the hospital most of yesterday and are, of course, returning today. My mother-in-law is in a retirement home and we also have to take over the things my sister-in-law did for her.

Thank you.

She's out of ICU and disconnected from IVs. Still very few words and no writing. Can use cards with pictures to indicate thirsty, hungry. Also can read and walk. Doctors are pleased so am cautiously optimistic.

We're waiting for them to say something about trying to find that AVM.

Happily she has many good friends. They're caring for cats and making sure she feels their love and support.

I appreciate the prayers and good wishes so much. Now we have the technical terminology: they'll do a "left frontal craniotomy to evacuate the hematoma and resection AVM."
