we could use your prayers

in Pennsylvania-Philadelphia
So much has happened in the last few months with different members in my family and i've been stressed, but i think handling it well, but I feel like this is almost my breaking point of a mental breakdown.

My 27 year old cousin Dan was in a severe car accident in his hometown in VA on Thursday. He has so many injuries including skull fractures, facial fractures, broken collar bone, wrist...  his brain has swelled  and he is currently on life support with partial bran damage. I think I'm still in denial but praying for a miracle as he will be taken off life support sometime today.  He may stay alive after being taken off the life support but he has several mini strokes since the accident which put him on the life support so we're not sure if he will make it but will definitely be brain damaged.  The dr's said that if he does survive,  they're not sure that he'll make it through the week i think i'm just in denial.
he  also has a just turned 4 year old daughter with his ex wife.
Thank you.

    thanks guys.
    It's so hard.   He's been in a coma since the accident, although he was orginally breathing on his own.  Even if he does survive, my aunt (who has had cancer last yr and is currently in remission) said that she doesnt know where to put him right now because his skull is open just from the force of the accident so his brain is partially out of his head.
    His sister just turned 21 and pregnant, due in 5 weeks.  She's been a mess and we're worried what damage the stress will do to the baby.
    He was airlifted from the scene of the accident via helicopter,  and the dr.'s said that if they knew how bad he was, they wouldn't have even airlifted him.  I feel like we should go see him in the hospital but also feel like it might be worse for me to see him in this state. Due to the force of the accident and facial fractures, he also lost an eye.  It's just one thing on top of another.
    we dont know what to do.
      his daughter Leah is asking for him and they've toldh er that he's hurt and sleeping right now but not sure what else they are going to tell her.
