Hi everyone:
The news is that there is no news. Dad remains on life support and we're waiting for him to wake up.
Every morning they turn off the respirator to gauge how welll he's able to breathe on his own. He's been strong in those tests, so the doctors were planning on removing his breathing tube yesterday. Complications arose, and they put off that step for the immediate future. He's been having regular seizures (don't worry, we don't see them, they're minor), and they want to clear that issue before removing the breathing tube and letting him breathe on his own.
Keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

Vince, Gina, and Claudia,
ReplyDeleteWe've all been praying for him. I know from being with Peggy last spring that living at the hospital with one you love is hard. I pray that you find spiritual, emotional, and physical refreshment. May you be encouraged by Psalm 139 "...and in His book were written the days that were ordained for me before there was one of them." May God grant Don lenght of days--may you see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. In Jesus' Name, amen. Cousin Carole
