An Answer to his illness
No pictures just a quick update. They came in and told me today that two of the tests that they thought were negative came back positive. He has RSV and para influenza. Influenza is treatable, but para influenza is not. So, thus why he is so sick. The pneumonia is being caused by these two viruses. Though this doesn't change his treatment it just gives us an answer to what he has. They were able to keep him on the same ventilator, but he keeps fighting against it, so they had to increase his paralytic and sedative. They don't want him fighting it yet, he isn't well enough yet.

Stacy-
We have been out of town and just heard about Gage's situation. Please know you are in our prayers. Also don't hesitate to call me for anything. We would like to help out in any way. Your cell phone must not be working because I tried calling you this evening.
Thanks for the update! We are all so worried about that little guy!! That is so good to know that you have an answer to what is wrong!
