Thoughts and prayers needed for a Giants fan

Jints in Carolina : 10/19/2017 1:08 pm
My friend of 25+ years suffered a heart attack last night which led to a stroke. His ex-wife texted me to tell me they don't expect him to make it.

His name is Taylor and is a huge Giants fan from North Jersey. He is only 51 years old.

Thoughts and prayers would be appreciated.
Headed your way

Really sorry to hear, Jints - 51 is way too young.

Thoughts and prayers are with him, his family, and you.

All the best.

He came out of surgery and is sedated on a respirator. They have to do a cat scan for the stroke and an echo for the heart , both probably tomorrow.

They have no idea the extent of damage from the stroke or heart deal but he's stabilized for now.

He's fighting.
Keep fighting, bro

They are taking him for level 2 neurosurgery to remove part of his skull to relieve the pressure from the stroke swelling.

I am very, very upset.....keep fighting Taylor!

I had a minor stroke last December at age 56. It wiped out my speech and handwriting ability. I got off easy.

Me and a friend are going to go visit him in the hospital today. Apparently he had a good night with no complications. He's responding to basic commands which is always good. He still has a long way from being out of the woods so keep the prayers coming.

The doctor said that he should be dead. But he's a strong fighter and may actually survive this. What the long-term holds nobody knows but he's fighting.

Wow. Had no idea.
Saw Taylor today.

He kicked his foot when we told him we were there and that we needed to watch the Giants together.

Small victories.
