Robert week 7

Rob is now in his 7th week in intensive care. He started out the week great, and finally got off the ventilator. That was absolutely fabulous because the ventilator causes infections — kind of an evil circle.

Rob was doing great for about 5 days. Unfortunately, he then got hit by another infection and had a high temperature and was put back on the ventilator. They also sedated him again.

His temperature has been good now for 2 days. They have taken him off the sedation, and I hope to see his beautiful green eyes soon….

As of Sunday the 26th, he is now awake, but very tired.  He is responding pretty well, and even managed a smile. It’s incredible how hard he has been fighting all of this, and his spirits seem to be good despite this last dip.
