This morning we went to St Boniface and were able to see George in his new surroundings and were also able to meet his new doctor. The preliminary test he took for the H1N1 while at Concordia came back A-positive. They are still waiting for a couple more tests results to come back, but the doctor is 85% sure that he has the H1N1 virus. They have actually been treating him for this since Tuesday so there will really not be much change in care. He is in an enclosed room and they continue to require us to wear a gown, mask, & gloves. They have been turning George on his stomach for a few hours at a time to allow air to get to the back of the lungs which has been positive so far. There is damage to the kidneys which they hope will correct themselves as he improves. So for now his condition is stable but they are continuing to monitor him very closely.
We have been blessed with many visitors, phone calls and text messages and are very thankful for each one. God remains faithful even during this difficult time! Thanks for your continued prayers, love, and support!
