Aloha, Everyone
The prayers for the improved blood oxygen worked! They are back to an acceptable level after a very astute respiratory tech began the use of APRV. Thank you, Lord, for giving him the inspiration.
Another serious complication arose today. There is swelling in the back of the brain caused by residual effects from the vertebral artery that was sealed on Saturday. This swelling may be creating pressure on Theresa's brain stem and preventing her from responding to stimulus. Until this complication is resolved, the neck surgery is on hold.
Please join me in praying for Theresa's brain swelling to subside. Sometimes it feels like a game of whack-a-mole but these prayers are making all the difference.
Mahalo,
David
