I wanted to give a update on my uncle before I have to go to work today. Please everyone who has been praying keep praying.

They got the bleeding managed but according to the updates his daughter posted there was some minor trauma to the new lungs. They have kept him in a medically induced coma and have him on ECMO to give those lungs a chance to heal. They weaned him off of sedation some yesterday to see if there was any damage to his brain. He recognized his granddaughter and tracked her with his eyes. That was enough and they knocked him back out. The plan for today according to the last update last night is to take him back in the OR sometime today to remove ECMO and close his chest. I am praying like crazy for him. I have a huge family but he is one of the few remaining uncles that I was actually close to growing up and into my adult life.
He is on our list. Our prayers are with you all. :hugs :hugs :hugs
