Prayers For My Nephew Brodie---updated

Two updates from Sara last night and this morning:
#1 Upping the ventilator because Brodie isn't responding positively to being weaned off. Not starting back at square one, but it is a step back.

#2 Brodie needed his ventilator & nitric oxide increased again last night. With all the extra fluid his lungs just can't take deep enough breaths to tolerate being weaned off. They have increased his diuretic drip and added a second single dose of a different medication last night. He is still really swollen although not as bad as he was over the weekend.

Joe's update from last night as well: BP dropping cause of the diuretic so they are upping the his Norepi to counteract. Won't decrease the diuretic because the excess fluid isn't good for the heart or lungs right now. O2 is still good, but Co2 could be lower. Heart rate is a little low but rhythm is good.

Saints Maximilan and Philomena, my two patrons, please approach the throne of God together and intercede for Brodie and his family. You know all the things that are in my heart, and you know I can't figure out how to put them into words. So, in my silence right now, please take my prayers, coupled with yours, for Brodie and his family. Please do not do this because I am asking, as you know I am in no condition to ask for anything; but do it out of mercy and for those righteous who have prayed.

Thank you.

update from Ice's mom:
[quote]Brodie's condition hasn't improved. Trying to wean him from the ventilator wasn't successful. Both lungs have drainage tubes. Oxygen levels still in the 70s. Still being sedated. Please, keep praying...[/quote]

pham, please storm heaven for little Brodie right now!
