Brady Update 2

Hi all- if you have gotten any updates from me today, I've probably cut and paste this message-

Earlier today Brady's Blood pressure was low so there was less oxygen going to his Brain and extremities. His lungs are starting to clear up, but there is still a significant amount of "fluff" clouding up the xrays.

He isn't peeing even though they have him hooked up to major league fluids so the thought is that the low BP is affecting urine production, so he is hooked up to a catheter.

Had a pretty severe fever all night. Put him on ice packs and this inflatable cold air bed, which has really helped- he dropped from 103 degrees to 97!


They did a blood transfusion to get more oxygenated blood into his system. He has responded well to that; his temp is down, blood pressure is up and the percentage of oxygen he is receiving from a machine has decreased from 60% to 40%.


A hard day that was made better by prayers, messages of encouragement and reading scripture. It's not easy to see him hooked up to everything but its wonderful to hear that he is making improvements...Brady is NOT a quitter!

We are learning to praise God in all circumstances, and I realize so often during our days that we are so fortunate to be children of a God who controls huge things like Brady's health, to small things like the delicious coffee my wonderful sister-in-law brought us.

Thank you to our prayer warriors.
