My nephew had a brain bleed.

My nephew is 38 and while out with friends he started slurring his words and by the time the ambulance got to them he was unconscious. They said he had a brain bleed. He is currently in the icu on life support his brain is too swollen. There is no brain activity currently. The doctors are not hopeful. Has anyone else had this happen and what was the outcome.

I have a dear friend who had this happen to her son.  He was also in ICU and on life support.  Unfortunately, he had no brain activity and they had to let him go. Very tragic.  I'm so sorry about your nephew.  How did it turn out?
