    This used to be a death sentence, but if it’s from a brain aneurysm, and IF they can clip it, there’s a decent chance. But yeah, prayer might be best.

    Not much to say other than I hope he pulls through and can still play hockey again.

    UPDATE: #Oilers &
    @Condors
    forward Colby Cave is out of emergency surgery at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto. Doctors removed a colloid cyst that was causing pressure on his brain. He remains in a medically-induced coma. Emily & his family ask for continued thoughts & prayers.

    The length of time a patient is in a medically induced coma is "largely dependent on the disease that you're treating". In most cases, a coma is induced for a few days up to two weeks; induced comas longer than a month are extremely rare. Our prayers to him and his family.
