Sharon Health Update - Stable but Critical

Israel is waiting in a kind of limbo right now, where no news is good news. And there really has been very little news. The PM remains in stable condition, but his condition remains "serious and life-threatening".
Another CT scan was administered on Saturday, and the results yielded "cautious optimism" because of "significant improvement". However, the Hadassah director later issued a statement that said that the CT scan only found "small improvement", and we're pretty sure he was talking about the same scan. The PM's condition remains, obviously, extremely serious.
The extent of the damage is still unknown, largely because you can't reliably test for brain activity while the patient remains sedated. The decision about when and how to remove the PM from anesthesia will be made Sunday.
