Last night the doctors took Jon to x-ray to determine if there were any further complications with his lungs. They discovered that he has a small hole in one of his lungs. This is probably due to the ventilator since his lungs are so fragile at this point. They put a chest tube in to help with his oxygenation level. They also ended up moving him into a different room where the nurses are more familiar with the new type of ventilator they have put him on. The doctors are also monitoring Jon's blood pressure carefully. It went down for a while but they are hoping to treat it w/ fluids. (10:47) I just came back from Jon's room. They docs have a sign that says 2 visitors and low stimulation on the door. This is so important for his healing. Jon's vitals looked pretty good when I left. His b/p was MUCH better and his oxygen level looked good (It was staying near 100). The RTs are lowing the number on the new vent by 2 every hour. (This is a good thing). One of the RTs also said that he believed that they treat and He (God) heals. It is so important to remember this. Keep praying!!! Thanks for everything!
