Hi folks,
Dennis is currently fighting some type of infection. They are awaiting culture results ... hopefully to come in tomorrow. In the meantime, he is still running a high fever. They are continuing to decrease his medications and hope to do some spontaneous breathing trials this evening. If he does well, they will extubate him.

hope it's not a super bug like last time.
since he still has the tubes in him, does this mean that he is still unconscious?
