Worse news

After the infection and blood pressure spike last night, it appears that Mo's lost all primitive neurological functions. In short, all signs indicate that he's brain-dead. They stopped all sedatives today, and tomorrow, after 24 hours, they'll switch off the life support. Unless there is a gasp or any sign of a physical reaction, indicating that his brain is alive and reacting to stimuli, he'll be gone.

Spending the day knowing that Mo is, in essence, dead, has been awful. Knowing that he won't be 'officially' dead until tomorrow is even worse.
