Update

Well...my dad has pneumonia. He's still on the ventilator although they turn it off every morning to see how long he breathes. Yesterday was 10 minutes...he has to breath on his 2 hours before they'll pull the breathing tube. He's on some good antibiotics so hopefully his lungs will clear up soon. They've taken him off sedation so he's actually able to communicate with us and understand us. He can't talk b/c of the breathing tube going through his vocal cords but he spells out words on a laminated sheet. It's nice to see him awake. Here's a couple things ya'll could pray for: that the pneumonia goes away fast and does not create any other problems. Pray he's able to be extubated...come off the vent. I'll keep you posted.
