His heart is going too strong to keep him on the pump he is on. (That's a good thing, since his heart is going strong.) He's still not getting enough oxygen, so has to have it put into his blood for him. Between the two, they're putting him on a smaller machine, which lets his heart do what it's supposed to do (pump), but continue to oxygenate his blood in the same method. (Take it out, add oxygen, and return.)
This is a small procedure, but it is an operation. And it's happening today, so could use prayers for that.
I'm doing better. Feeling better too, since the last time a major health scare made my blood pressure skyrocket, but this time? The doctor said it's beautiful -- exactly where it should be. He also said that since John made it past the first couple of days, he has a very good chance at recovery. (Well, maybe he doesn't know, God is, so chance doesn't exist, but I still liked the sound of it. lol)
Only worrisome thing is he's not oxygenating enough. Nurse says this happens. Fluid builds up in the lungs, but they've been pumping it out for days now. She gave me three possible causes, but I only remember the scary one -- "a small case of pneumonia."
So, two prayer requests:
1. Operation runs smoothly.
2. He starts oxygenating better!
All is managed on the home front, so today is a day with John!
Thanks for prayers again. (I can see the Prayer Request forum. Just no longer a member, so can't respond. Don't have time to anyway.)
