A Step Up to the ICU

Around 3:30 this morning, Joe woke up having extreme difficulty breathing. He couldn't maintain adequate oxygen saturation (in the 90's), even with 95% oxygen.  The decision was made to move him to the ICU and he had a temporary breathing tube and 2 blood lines inserted without problems. This is a good place for him to be.  With the breathing tube, he's able to breath effectively with lower oxygen percentages (he moved down quickly to 50% with this more effective apparatus).

FYI, I turned on comments on the blog.

Thanks for your support and positive rays!
