Grant Day 2 Morning Update

Unfortunately Grant had a turn for the worse. He developed PIE, you can read more about it here. His right lung is not really helping him at this point. He is having trouble getting enough gas exchange. He is on the oscillator (I should have taken a picture, sorry) and at nearly 100% oxygen.

His doctor said, “He’s pretty critical.”

His platelets were down, but the last labs came back right before I left and they were back up, so that is a good sign, but his air issues are huge.

He’s also down to 550 grams, which isn’t a huge deal.
