Sunday/Monday Morning Update

Sunday was a good day for Graham. They were able to change out all of his main IV lines and take away some of the sedation. As part of that process, the Lake's were able to see him move all four limbs which was a huge reason for joy in their family!

His vitals are returning to normal so he no longer needs to have blood pressure medicine and showing more signs of stability. This weekend he was able to be removed from isolation but is still in the ICU but they can hold his hand now and touch him which has made a big difference.

They need continue prayer for the next steps of trying to get rid of the ventilator and they are testing the brain fluid to see if the bacteria are active. His brain glucose levels are low and they really need these to go back up. He still has a good amount of fluid on the brain too that they are watching.

Overall - it is one day at a time but this weekend showed several moments of joy!
