We are sad to announce that he is still in that coma today. It now has been close to 10 days & the doctors (neuro-specialists) do not see any improvements or changes in his condition. To put it mildly, they do not believe that he will come out of his coma anytime soon. Those close to him that have been spending time with him have seen small positive signs but the doctors involved do not see them as significant enough to consider them signs of progress. They have also noted that they do not anticipate any changes in Adam's status or further treatments during this coming week. We here at the IKF would like to ask all of you to keep Adam in your prayers as we will do. June, 2006: Adam was in a coma for 30 days. came out of his Coma but is still in a recovery state.
