on monday they figured out that it was fungal pneumonia and starting treating him for that...
they have bumped his oxygen intake up from 4 to 10...
his oxygen level dropped into the 50s last night...
they put him on the bi-pap for a while to get him leveled out...
they are giving him morphine to keep him calm and help his breathing because he get's freaked out when he can't breathe...
chest x-rays show no improvement...
they gave him a breathing treatment this afternoon when i was there and his oxygen level was in the mid 90s throughout and for about 20 minutes after that...
then his oxygen dropped to low 70s...
bumped his oxygen intake up from 10 to 15 and put a mask on him instead of just the nose tubes...
that's where we stand right now...
