Hope is a genetic research physician & professor at Memorial Hermann/UT Health Science Center and cleared the way for a quick response and treatment. After 3 hours, here is what we know:
- Kent has a subdural hematoma (brain bleed), likely at the site of the biopsy
- There is a 2cm blood clot that is creating pressure on his brain/spinal column and must be removed
- There is a possible infection at the biopsy site, but this is unconfirmed
Mary, Toni & Ed will be sending information out to me (Nan) and I will post updates as soon as I have them. Some of you are already followers and will receive an email with any updated information - you can access the blog at http://kentcain.com any time.
This is a scary development, but Kent is in good hands - under the care of the professionals at Memorial Hermann and always under God's watchful eyes.
