I Just talked to the nurse. They have decided to keep him on his back today since flipping him on his stomach hasn’t netted any gains in his lab tests. He is getting 80% from the ventilator and his blood oxygen levels are in the low 90’s with that amount of output. They did get a final reading on the sputum culture that they took and he has an infection called the “H flu”. So now they are narrowing his antibiotics to address that specific infection. He still on the paralytic so he is not feeling any pain and does not have a fever.

  1. Thank you for the continued updates Caitlin. It’s encouraging they can now target a specific organism to get your dad on the upswing! GO DAN!!!
