air leak

So, the x-ray this morning showed a probable air leak near his sternum. This is a tricky place to get a leak. The most conservative treatment is to go back on the other ventilator at lower settings & keep him really still so his body can heal this. he is showing little signs of improvement, the virus/pneumonia in his body is making the doctors think really hard. Nobody said this would be easy. It is probably best to keep visitors to a minimum, since there are so many doctors coming & going they don't want me exposed to anything by close proximity to other people (hugs). It is getting to be the germ-iest part of cold & flu season. Thank you for understanding ♥ Thank you for the prayers ♥
