Update #25

Yesterday I spoke about the doctors performing a splice like procedure to control the lungs individually. This effort failed 3x and doctors were forced to resort to the original style of tubing. The attempt to give his right lung a break through this process was unsuccessful and they don’t want to create more damage on the existing fragile organs.


In addition, they discovered a pneumothorax (additional air between the lung and chest wall) on dads left lung. Do to the severity of the discovery another chest tube was inserted immediately . Today, doctors feel that the left lung pneumothorax has healed on its own. It appears that there is no air to be sucked out of his left lung anymore. They will leave the chest tube in for the left lung as a precaution to monitor but believe they will be able to remove it soon. His right lung still needs the chest tube.

The doctors confirmed dad no longer needs dialysis and they have removed these resources from his body.


Dad will continue to be treated with heavy antibiotics and Antifungal medication in an effort to cover a broad spectrum of what may or may Not exists in the Blebs/cyst around dads lungs.

I have Coordinated with staff for a professional Cellist to play music for dad via video. Our recording was sent to staff again and they will be playing our message for him regularly.


Another team of doctors has reached out to me and want to assist in any mediation or communication with family. I have made them aware as well as any staff I engage with that this site exist.


I also want to take this time to tell everyone that I love you. My fathers welfare is my top priority and understand that current conditions limit everyone’s involvement. I know it is hard having to sit in your respected home and wait for these updates. I know it is not An easy feeling being in a helpless position. I appreciate everyone’s kind words who have reached out to us individually. You are not alone, I love my father very much and it is clear you do to. There is not much we can all do with these conditions. If everyone is up for it I’d like to schedule a prayer. At 8pm tonight, please step outside and look up at the moon and sky. Say prayer with me, connect us through the stars the sky and moon. Pray for my father, pray me as I will pray for you and pray for the doctors in dads care.

Till next time...

I don't know much about the transfusion therapy...we aren't doing it yet at my hospital, but I am 6 weeks out from the start of the virus and cleared for work x 3 weeks. I probably have some pretty good antibodies if a directed blood donation would help? I don't know if that's an appropriate option, but throwing it out there...
