Troy Ruane Jr, NC

We received a call last night about 1:40am from our friends, Cheri and Troy Ruane. Their youngest son, Troy Jr (a rising senior at West Brunswick) had just been in a terrible car accident on Grey Bridge Rd and they were headed to the Brunswick ER. We followed them and Troy was transported to New Hanover in critical condition. After a cat scan, we were told he remained in critical, but stable condition, and had bleeding on his brain and brain injury, a condition which typically would not call for surgery. There were not a lot of other apparent injuries mentioned at the time. Earlier this am, the docs informed the family that they had to drill a hole in his skull and place a brain monitor ... the next 24-48 hours are a most critical watch and see time for Troy. Troy also has two older brothers, Devin, who is here, and Josh who will be flying in from his Air Force Base in Turkey ... arrival time expected 2pm in Wilmington on Monday afternoon. Please help us pray for our friends during this most devastating time!
