Praying for you Carl and your family!!
Okay here we go......Carl continues to be on the ECMO machine. (Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) This machine provides cardiac and respiratory support to patients whose heart and lungs can't provide adequate gas exchange to sustain life. A literal lifesaver! He was taken into the OR this afternoon to flush out his chest cavity and depending on what the surgeon sees or doesn't see.......Close up his chest which has been open since Saturday. Suzie, his wife thanks all of you for your prayers and support. More to come.........

Thanks for the updates. Chuck Norris would have given up by now but not our Carl!
