It has been one week today since Mark's accident. One week that seems like months.
He has developed a bit of a fever over the course of the day. It is 39 degrees Celsius tonight. (102.2 Fahrenheit) We already know though that his body is fighting an infection, and he is on antibiotics for that. So for that reason, the staff was not overly concerned about the increased temperature.
They have stepped down the Ketamine dosage a bit, and he is now breathing on his own. The ventilator is still in place, but only as backup at this point. He is doing all the work, and regulating his own respirations.
Aside from the fever, today has been another uneventful day, and we will take many more of those! Keep the prayers going!
