Is he on a ventilator or just a mask ? I honestly don't know the answer, but take comfort in the fact he is in the best place with a team of experts looking after him .

40% oxygen isn't that high for ICU , everything crossed for good results for tomorrow for you and your husband .

Head scan came back clear they keep lowering serdation tinys bits its just his fitting they need to control so fingers crossed they can stop that as thats the only thing at min they might do an mri scan full body just to rule everything out
