My mother in law who is a vent protocol survivor was on the mend and was killing it on the rehab front (she was up and walking around, getting dressed, the works, almost on the verge of coming home) when she managed to get sick with a stomach bug and was reinfected with aspirational pneumonia yesterday. She's been submitted to ICU with high CO2 levels. Different facility this time and the docs are doing everything to keep her off the ventilator. She's been seeing her CO2 levels drop a bit in the last few hours, but she's got a long haul again. You pedes did it the last time with the power of prayer and I'm asking for help once again.
Thanks!
Love you guys!
Rusty...
Prayers sent. I've gone through this myself. 17 days in the hospital with Covid Pneumonia, 7 of those in the ICU. I'm stilling fighting the remains of long haul Covid. I'll keep her in my daily prayers.
Thank you! Any tips?
Yes. Sleeping on her stomach will hell her breath easier with Pneumonia. I'm sure it saved my life.
Yup. It helps open up the airway. Thanks!
