Good Morning, Bad Evening
Matt had a really good morning, had been able to breathe on his own twice, once for 1hr 20 min, then 1 hour. B when they tried to do it this eve, he only lasted 35 mins, stating he was just too tired. The nurse stated he was quite warm, and realized he had a raging temperature. His oxygen sats should be between 96-98%, they could not get it above 82%. The respiratory therapist had to manually bag him for 45 mins. They are unsure if it is another pneumonia, partially collapsed lung, or infection around the trach site. Unfortunately he is already on an antibiotic, which obviously is not working. Please pray that God will renew Matt's strength. He is becoming so discouraged, and is losing physical strength to fight another infection. Please pray also for wisdom for the nurses and doctors, pray that they won't give up on Matt. Eph. 6:18 And pray in the Spirit on all occassions with al kinds of prayers and requests".
