walshie 2,804 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Just got a call off my best friend of 20 years's brother. My mate was found beside his car at 3.30 this morning. He's been in neurosurgery all night and they don't expect him to pull through. If he does, he'll be a vegetable. Police don't suspect foul play but are investigating. Can't even go and visit him.

NEWKID 26,230 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Best of luck to your mate Dave.. 7 years ago we were told the same about my Dad, kept in an induced coma for nearly 3 weeks as the operated on his brain, We were told there was no chance of a recovery, he proved them wrong, and is back to normal(ish), works still, and is pretty fit for a 63 year old man. There is always hope mate, keep your chin up. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

walshie 2,804 Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Thanks for the kind words lads. Doesn't look good. Doctor told his mother he probably wouldn't make it through tomorrow. Also got hypothermia from laying there for who knows how long and at least one, possibly 2 fractures to his skull. FFS he was strong as an ox and just the sort of friend anyone would want. It's heartbreaking to see a lump of man lying there like a baby, Considering the cops "don't suspect foul play" they're taking it pretty seriously. Flat and car park are cordoned off as a crime scene, his phone has been kept as evidence and they are searching all nearby cctv footage for anything. All sounds very suspicious to me. He is also the most stubborn man I ever met, Let's hope that stubbornness gets him through. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
