Friday Evening Update - More Support Needed

At 5pm Jerry was reintubated. It was planned and they were able to talk to him before hand to explain why this was necessary. They have started sedation again and hopefully he will rest better tonight.

He has severe pneumonia and they suspect that he may also have adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The short-term goal is for him to rest to try and fight the worsening pneumonia.

Debbie is struggling. She is emotionally and physically exhausted. Please continue to pray for both of them.
