Jerry and Debbie are having a difficult day. Last night neither of them got much sleep. Jerry is miserable and can't get comfortable. Debbie is physically and emotionally exhausted. She has gone to get some rest this afternoon, but separation is tough for both of them.
The biggest concerns are pulmonary. The pulmonary team has taken over as the lead team in his care until they can get him breathing better on his own. Cardiology is secondary at the moment. He has ventilator-associated pneumonia. They are taking him for a CT of his lungs today to better assess the situation. Infectious diseases has a team involved to help with determining the best course of antibiotics.
He is coherent, but very weak and still listed as critical. He knows what is going on and is fighting and trying his best to tolerate the things that need to be done to get him well. They both need our prayers. This Sunday will mark 3 weeks and today his health is still very critical.
Specific prayer requests.
1. Pray for less misery for Jerry.
2. Pray for strength for Debbie. Lift her up as she walks through this with Jerry.
3. Pray for strength for Debbie to deal with Candace and pray for Candace. Her inability to deal with the situation is adding an extra burden to all involved.
