ALDEN - Doctors say that the only way Paul is being kept alive is by an artificial breathing and heart pump machine. They say the injuries he sustained during yesterday's shooting are fatal. The family says it will make a decision on what to do next, but doctors say that his quality of "life" is not very good at this current junction.

With permission from the family, his doctors say that he will not survive once taken of the machines. They said when he arrived he had agonal breathing and mucus build up was abundant in his lungs. They said that x-rays showed blood splotches on his lungs and heart.

"We are surprised that he was still alive when he got to us," said the doctors of Nox City Medical Center. "He was in rough shape already when he arrived to us and we are keeping hope that he will pull through at this time. This morning he was still using a breathing machine and an artificial pump. The family has expressed to us that he would not want to live using machines."

The family has been keeping updates on Paul, who has been at Nox City Medical Center since yesterday afternoon. Doctors are giving him 2 weeks to live but the family is giving him longer. They say he is fighter and will get through this. Alexis, though, is conflicted as she will make the final call on whether or not to take him off life-support.

"It's a difficult spot to be in," said Alexis. "On the one hand, you love him and want him here with you, but on the other hand you know he doesn't want to be connected to a machine for the rest of his life and you don't want him to suffer."

The family is still praying that he recovers and will be able to lead a long life. The family remains optimistic, even with the news he won't survive.

"Its a never-say-never situation," said the family. "He could pull through and miracles are a real thing. We hope that we get a miracle and he begins to heal. We remain very hopeful during the difficult time."
