I just received a call from my sister Johanna at the hospital. Channel Man is having a rough night tonight. His SpO2 level is dropping, so they have increased the FiO2 on the ventilator to 70%. He is running a fever again for the first time in over a week, and his temperature is registering at 38.6 C (101.5 F). He also having issues with low arterial blood pressure, so they are administering medications to try and improve things.
