SUNDAY BREAKTHROUGH ****UPDATE

****This is the message I just got from Marie

Marie Morris-White
  • They took him off the vent today and now he is on oxygen and tolerating it pretty well. He gets steroids to keep the swelling in his throat down so they don't have to reintabate him. They had to
    start blood pressure medicine because it was getting out of
    control, so he gets that every 6 hours.
  • Tomorrow they may change is blood pressure medication to be closer together because he isn't making it the 6 hours without it.
  • They started his feeding tube again.  When this tube of milk is out they may let him have a bottle to actually feel full, they said they don't feel full with the feeding tube.
  • His belly where the surgery was is swelling more today then yesterday so that concerns them for the incision. So he is still not out of the dark but he is still fighting!


REMEMBER LAST NIGHTS POST ASKING GOD FOR A SUNDAY BREAKTHROUGH.



CREW IS BREATHING ON HIS OWN.
THANKING GOD WITH TEARS POURING. 

MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT

I can't sleep tonight.  Could be because I have slept all day.  Could be because I have a sore throat and feel like I am getting sick. 

Could be I have a lot on my mind.  For whatever reason, I remembered I had not posted an update. 

I cannot tell you how many lurkers have come out to say they are praying for Crew.  How many people are spreading his name and his need.  His need is simply a miracle. 

One reason I am late posting is  that I have not heard anything from Marie or her Mom since late afternoon.
 
I could tell from the tone of her text she was exhausted beyond words, fearful, and holding  on by a string.  Tonight I am just going to copy and paste what she send me around 5 this afternoon. 

From Marie
   
Crew  is still on the vent, his kidneys are damaged from everything that's going on and they are concerned that it is  becoming permanent.
Also they  are still  trying to give him time to battle his own blood pressure in fear of making his kidneys more stressed by assisting with medicine, unless it turns dangerously high.

He is having a very rough time right now and is being very difficult to sedate and his blood pressure and heart rate were very concerning to them.
As we speak he is getting an arterial line because blood draws are no long working, he is clotting to bad. So he is knocked out and paralyzed. He can't catch a break.

Let's all pray that today will be the day for a breakthrough.

Thanks for your thoughts, emails and prayers. 
  
Continue to encourage her.  I know not a minute goes by that she does not need
an encouraging word.
