Default Mike Brown in hospital with brain aneurysm

I haven't seen it posted on here so I figured I would copy it over from another forum since most of us on here know Mike...

Mike Brown from the Ohio Boys is in the hospital with a brain aneurysm. He passed out on fri in the shower and had a bad headache for 3 days before going. I guess there is still some major concerns on weather or not they will be able to operate but I just talked to Justin from the Ohio Boys and he said that Mike is up and walking today...... Please keep Mike in your prayers.
Get well soon Mike.

Oh wow, I hope Mike gets through this quickly. At least this happened at home as opposed to behind the wheel of his 7.76 beast.

Jeez man, we'll be praying. I hope he gets better, fortunately he still has a chance, and like John said, fortunately it wasn't while he was behind the wheel of that 7.x car!

Myself and Steve Turley just got back from the hospital. Mike is doing better. He's eating and is able to get up and move around for the first time since he's been there. He still has swelling they are trying to get under control that's affecting some of his motor skills. If all goes well they are looking to release him early next week. He was in good spirits considering the circumstances even to the point of talking about racing.

They still do not know what caused the hemmorage, once they can get a MRI without the blood blocking the area of interest they will know more. That could take a while from what I understand.

I will keep updating as I hear more over the weekend, but for now I will make sure he knows about all the support! I'm sure it will lift is spirits further.

Mark
