Wednesday Update

Bob and Gordie Howe

Bob had a tracheotomy done today so now he doesn't have breathing and feeding tubes going down his throat. This morning he was having trouble breathing and his heart rate and blood pressure were elevated. His numbers are stable now because he was sedated from the tracheotomy procedure so he is resting comfortably.

Bob continues to have a problem with his lungs because of the pneumonia and staph infection. We hope the medical staff can more easily treat them now that he has a trach. He also recently had an EEG which again showed no signs of seizure activity.

Thanks again to everyone for your continued thoughts and prayers.
