Hello. This is Jonathan again.

Here is a very quick update since the biopsy:

• April has been experiencing some confusion brought on by the meds, and just being here again. She is also having some trouble with clear speech – not the mental aspect of it. But the actual sounds.

• Her breathing became even more labored on Wednesday (I think – it’s all running together), and she was moved to the ICU and placed on a positive-pressure breathing machine. The goal is to keep her from being intubated.

• This does look like a fungus. We’re just narrowing down the specific kind to tailor the treatment.

• But, while that happens, we have started a more aggressive anti-fungal IV drug. This comes with new concerns and possible side-effects.

• I think we’re looking at 2 weeks for this first drug. And they want us here to monitor her liver, magnesium, etc. Then we go home with an even strong drug – but in pill-form.

That is it for now. Please pray for healing. Specifically for strong lungs, relaxation for her, and healing from the fungus. God is good! Even in tough times.
