Follow the journey of the "Bru-Man Group" - Bruce - and all of us crazy people that love him as he endures the battle of brain cancer. Up-to-date information on Bruce and his battle will be posted here to help keep all of the Bru-Man Group completely informed. We would also love to have an outpouring of comments sending love and prayers to the family to continue support, that would be awesome.
Blog 101 - To those of you who are new to blogs and blogging, I wanted to give a brief overview of how to use this site. There are authors and followers. Authors are Val and Connie. Followers are all of our wonderful support system that continue to follow Bru's journey through this battle. Authors create posts, followers can read posts and comment on posts that have been created. As a follower you don't have to log in in with an account or sign in to comment. If there is a post that you are interested in commenting on, just click the comment icon below the post itself. Once you have typed your post, you must choose an account just below the text box, choose anonymous! If you are looking for all of the posts to the blog, scroll down the page and look to the right of the screen, every post is listed there by month and day. It's listed chronologically starting newest to oldest. If you want to add pictures, please email me at emtp1124@yahoo.com with a description of the picture and the caption you would like underneath it. Blogging is very similar to Facebook and other social sites, but it doesn't have the ability to post things to the blog like you do people's walls in facebook. If you are having problems viewing the blog, it may be because of settings that you have on your internet browser . You can type the URL into your smart phone browser as well and see the blog pretty well. If you want updates sent to you anytime things are updated, subscribe to the blog by email. This option is at the top of the page on the right hand side of your screen just above the picture of Bruce. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at emtp1124@yahoo.com.

DAY 1 - Recovery
Spoke with the ICU nurse this morning. Nothing has changed. All indications are he is doing well. They have done another CT scan this morning to make sure everything is all right. Bruce slept relatively comfortably last night. Visiting hours don't begin until 10 a.m. and we are going to limit visitors to only immediate family in order to allow Bruce to rest. He seemed rather agitated yesterday so I have decided to keep stimulation at a minimum to help the brain to shift back into place and heal. I stayed in his room for quite a while last night, calming him so he could rest comfortably and that seemed to help. Will be doing the same thing today. Keep the prayers coming!
