It seems his oxygen levels are low even on the ventilator and his heart rate drops. They are not removing the tube this morning. They took another xray and there appears to be something that they want to go in and look at. They will do it with a bronchoscopy and maybe remove what ever it is they think they see.
This is scheduled for sometime around noon.
Thank you all for being here for me.

I just saw this thread Classy and I am adding my prayers for a quick recovery. Sending positive vibes your way to both of you. I know that you have to be exhausted by now, mentally and physically. If you need ANYTHING, I am only a few hours away and I am off work until next Tuesday. Do not hesitate to ask. Please get some rest. You may not sleep, but try to rest.

Thank you...
The nurses there are wonderful. They even keep him clean and his hair combed, and I think someone trimmed his fingernails.
The bronchoscopy allowed a small piece of blockage to be removed, and a lot more fluid. He now has a vacuum tube in there too.
Tomorrow they will try weaning him off the ventilator instead of just removing it.
He came to a little today and was crying...it was horrible.
