Day 30 of Los being in coma.
Last night was a pretty good (uneventful) night for Los. Some off and on fever (up to 102) with some mild neuro-storming earlier this morning. But heart rate and temperature (98.8)) has both settled back down close to normal again (without having to go back on any sedation type med), thanks to some wonderful love and care from Charles keeping Los calm and relaxed with some quiet talking + keeping his washcloths dipped in ice water on a constant rotation.
Doctors seemed to have found a medicine schedule that helped Los yesterday (less severe and less frequent neuro-storming), and they will keep that strategy going today.
Doctors going to x-ray stomach/ colon, as there has been a bit less frequent digestion movement last two days. They will work to make sure that gets back on track today.
X-rays (lungs) look great. White cell counts went back down closer to normal today (at 11 right now). 🙏
CPAP will go back on today to get him back on the “lung exercising” program. 👍💪
Other than that, more of the same…. All other injuries, lacerations, etc are doing well and healing as expected.
Prayer focus for today — for Los to have a good strong day on the CPAP, for the new medicine schedule to continue to help Los get past the last of these storming episodes, for continued miraculous healing of his brain, and for the family’s discernment as Los continues to improve / as they start to get ready for the eventual next step of Los’s recovery process (transfer to neuro-specialized care and rehab). 🙏🙏
