Tuesday, Rene had another episode where his vitals became unsteady. With sedation, he was able to be stabilized.

Today, Rene's respiratory therapist tested his breathing capacity in which Rene passed the tests required to be weaned off the ventilator. Unfortunately, the attempt was unsuccessful. After a few hours, Rene experienced rapid breathing related to anxiety. As a result, Rene was reconnected to the ventilator and was sedated to regain stabilization.

Meanwhile, if Rene's vitals and labs remain stable enough, he will be given his fourth round of chemo treatment this Friday. This will continue to require sleep and rest to build up his strength.

Please continue to pray that Rene's lungs get stronger and that he not become too anxious but trust in the Lord who is with him.


Psalms 38:21-22

Do not forsake me, Oh Lord; Oh my God, do not be far from me; Make haste to help me, Oh lord, my salvation.
