From Lorrie, October 28:
Great news on neurological scans...and he's perking back up!!! 👏
It's from the subdural hematoma. Will probably have peaks and valleys of speech and confusion. Might have seizures too because of where the blood is pooling (on the brain), so they will start anti seizure meds to prevent that. Might have even had microscopic seizures that has caused some of today's changes. But the neurologist is pretty confident it will slowly get better in the next couple weeks. They don't want to start the aspirin for 12 days, and (heart) surgery probably in a month.
