We spoke to Shane and Shana today, and Ryland has had a big break through! The doctors did a culture on the bacteria and figured out exactly which strand of pneumonia it is, and which medicine it responds to the best. So, Ryland is not taking the five antibiotics that he was on yesterday. He is now only taking penicillin. His fever has also came down to a 99.8.
He is still in a coma, but has started breathing more on his own. Instead of being on 100 percent oxygen, he is now on 60 percent, which is the lowest percentage you can be on before being taken off of the ventilator. Ryland's body is getting stronger and starting to respond very well to the medication. His improvements are small, but are beginning the road to recovery.
Continue to pray for Ryland to have a complete and total healing in his body. We are even believing that the surgery won't be necessary as his body continues to heal. Also, pray for Shane and Shana. They need continued prayers for strength and peace of mind. Today they were encouraged and uplifted at the good news, and the support and prayers of everyone. Let's continue to pray this sweet little boy's healing into existence!!
