(Nov 12, 2009) - Ryan Diviney, the injured West Virginia student and former Broad Run High School standout athlete, continues to fight for his survival. With his family anxiously awaiting results from an MRI Wednesday night on his brain trauma suffered, he unexpectedly had a lung collapse Thursday, but his medical team acted quickly to stabilize the situation.
Friends, family, neighbors and others from Loudoun and across the country -- and even in other countries -- are rallying around the Diviney family in this time of need.
We are following updates from Ryan's father, Ken Diviney ...
Thurs. 2 p.m. Update: Just a quick note that Ryan probably won't be able to have visitors today. No new updates on his results yet
Thurs. 1 p.m. Update: Please pray! Still haven't heard MRI results since Ryan's care had to be diverted. His lung unexpectedly collapsed and it became an emergency for his life. The medical team responded quickly and stablized him. This is just another fight that was won, as far as I'm concerned. I'll let you know when we hear either the MRI or cause if the collapse.
Thurs. 9 a.m. Update: First, my daughter is amazing! Her strength is unrelenting. She reads every post to Ryan and keeps vigil at her brother's side. We are all anxious to hear the MRI results and pray for hope. I'm so proud of how profoundly Ryan has touched so many lives. The FB page set up for him is approaching 2,000 people and everyone is circling the wagons around him! We feel the love coming his way.
Wed. 9:30 p.m. Update: Ryan is resting comfortably after his MRI. He is running a fever and it's being watched carefully. We will hear MRI results in the morning. We feel the love and support from everywhere. It's beyond amazing how many lives Ryan touched in a profound way! Please continue to rally! We heard that there's a campaign to make t-shirts for people to wear. We love it! The support from around the country let's us know how much he is loved. In fact, I just heard we have crossed the ocean and people in South Africa are praying! Our son continues to make us so proud of how he positively affected people lives.

In the time that I knew him while I worked at Broad Run, Ryan was a great athlete, student and first and foremost a person. He was a strong young man who was always determined to do well! He will fight! Best wishes and stay strong! All the strength you need is inside you.
