Another night of working through some neurological storming. CPAP left on all night, and still going. Good news and great progress on the respiratory CPAP side of things! But still, some work to do on the neuro-storming and finding the balance of meds for Los to be able to rest / heal and get through this part of the recovery journey.
This morning, so far, Los has been resting comfortably with some occasional mild storming off and on, which he is settling back / recovering from on his own. Fever this morning has subsided back down to 98-99 range.
Trauma doctor team confirmed all looks good, normal on vitals/ lung x-rays/ white cell counts/ etc. this morning. No news is good news there. 👍
The main goal and prayer-focus for today continues to be for finding the right balance on meds + treatment to solve and help Los get past the neuro-storming episodes. Doctors believe the current fevers are being triggered by the neurological recovery side of things and are a side-effect of the body’s healing process there (fevers being caused by neurological discomfort/healing and no longer being triggered from any sort of infection).
On behalf of the Bentley family, thank you for the continued amazing support and love that keeps pouring in from all over. Let us all take comfort in knowing that God is indeed hearing our prayers🙏
Let’s go, Los! 💪
