just a quick report - rbc is down to 6.8 so John will get some blood today. Lots of good news though - there is still no elevated temperature this morning; the nurses have been able to decrease the assist he is getting from the ventilator both in terms of how much oxygen he is on and how much help the ventilator is giving him to breathe; his swelling is dramatically down, at least in his feet and ankles which were huge; and he was able to communicate 2 important questions about his treatment even though he can't talk.
I'm still waiting to hear from the docs but things are looking much better to me this morning; just wanted you all to know.
