Today, we have seen several small improvements in Chris. As stated below, this morning they had reduced the ventilator to 91% and his blood oxygen level was 97%. The normal blood oxygen level for someone Chris' age is around 94-95%. Mid-day the doctors had reduced the ventialtor again to 81% and Chris' blood oxygen was at 94%. And, before we left tonight, the ventilator was reduced to 75% and his blood oxygen level was 90%. They will maintain him at 75% on the ventilator tonight. While these improvements are encouarging, Chris remains in critical condition and still has a long fight ahead of him.
All of your prayers are working, and I ask that you please continue to pray for him. He looks strong and good. Also, please pray to give my parents strength. They are emotionally and physically exhausted. Please pray that tonight they are able to get a good night's rest.
My family and I are so moved by the support of all our family and friends and even those who do not know Chris but are praying for him. Thank you!
