Put him on 3 blood pressure IVs, tons of antibiotics, and dialysis. Wed he made HUGE improvements and by friday he was off all BP meds. Hes still in ICU and on dialysis. His kidney may have taken a big hit. They're extracting fluids via machine. Might take breathing tube off today.

This sets his stroke recovery back, he has left side deficit, so his battle just got that much harder, but man, hes a fighter. Thanks all for the prayers!
