I had an update from Dorothy’s doctor just now. She is doing all right in terms of the ventilator settings, which they were able to keep steady for the past day.
Unfortunately, did start to run a fever, first at 4:00 this morning with a recurrence at 8:00. They are currently running tests to try to determine the cause, but if it does not recur, there is no real cause for worry. They have also started some antibiotics as a preventative measure.
Otherwise, the doctor says that he has no major concerns. He reiterated that her progress is about on par with what he’s seen with others and that Dorothy still has a long road ahead to recovery.
CORRECTION: The fevers actually occurred on the afternoon and evening of Monday, 25 January at 4:00 pm and 8:00 pm.
Thank you Brian for keeping us updated. Prayers for her and your family.
