Re: Please Pray for Phil Berg
I'm thankful to report that no aneurysm was found when Phil had the angiogram this morning, so it appears at this point that surgery will not be necessary. He will have a MRA (Magnetic Resonance Angiogram) early next week, but he appears to be doing well at this point and may be moved from SICU to a regular room tomorrow. He was reasonably coherent when we visited with him during visiting hours, though his stories would take some veeerrrryyy interesting twists when the dope would kick in We never saw his eyes open yesterday afternoon, so this was a huge step in the right direction.
Thanks everybody for your concern and prayers. Please continue to pray for Phil, as this is quite a serious matter that he went through and we are still not certain that everything is ok. The one thing that we are certain of is that Phil is in God's hands and there is absolutely no better place to be. Mark |

Re: Please Pray for Phil Berg
Phil is doing well enough now to have been moved from intensive care to a floor for patients with neuro injuries and conditions. He still is confined to bed, has significant pain and has eaten very little due to the nausea associated with the bleeding in his brain. We understand that the recovery process will likely be long and there will be challenges ahead.
Thank you for your prayers and please continue to pray for Phil and our family. Mark |

Re: Please Pray for Phil Berg
sorry to hear about this, phil emails me any time we have some good luck, he is one of our biggest fans. I met them (mark and phil) in orlando a long time ago. they always hung around our pits cause they liked stick cars. I hope things turn around for phil, he is a class guy.

Re: Please Pray for Phil Berg
Thanks everybody for your prayers and kind thoughts. Your responses have been great medicine for Phil!
He continues to improve - he has less pain, his appetite is getting better and they plan to get him up to walk tomorrow. He has a test scheduled for Friday morning, so we are hoping that he will be doing well enough to come home early next week. God bless you all and have a Merry Christmas! Mark |
