I'll do you one better than prayer, I'll believe. I also worked at a hospital for 4 years (2 in nursing and 2 in X-Ray). While in nursing, most of my pts were either respiratory failure, renal failure, or required telemetry. Most of them became like family because they often came back, and eventually died on my floor (especially the renal pts). Still, I can not even begin to imagine what you and your father must be going through. I'll tell you what I do know, Josh, and that is that you are a very strong and intelligent person, which leads me to believe your father is too. I have no doubt that you will both walk through this much better with support that you share. Keep this in mind, too: regardless of what the CT says, or an MRI, or even their top neurosurgeon, your brother is aware of what is happening, and he knows you both are there for him. Don't be afraid to talk with him, even if he doesn't seem to be able to hear you. He can.
Anyway, you and your family will be in my prayers, and your brothers success will be in my beliefs.
All my best,
~Chris
