Shrapnel in brain keeps him in coma
The Cheektowaga parents of a soldier wounded in Iraq have arrived in Germany to be close to their critically wounded son, family members said Wednesday.
Army Spc. Michael D. Hauser, 23, is in a medically induced coma and has a piece shrapnel in his brain that cannot be removed because the surgery could cause more brain damage, according to an e-mail from Hauser’s father to relatives back home.
“It’s a possibility that Michael may or may not come out of the coma. Time will tell. One day at a time,” Ray Hauser wrote in the e-mail.
The shrapnel, the size of a ball bearing, pierced the young man’s skull about an inch above his right eye and below his helmet, said Sandra Hauser, an aunt of the soldier.   ………more
