Isaac contines to rest comfortably. An x-ray this morning showed that the impact caused some holes in his lung. Basically one of his lungs blew up like a balloon and it created a few holes. This has caused some air to leak and it was on top of his lungs. Because he has a ventilator breathing for him, this causes additional leakage which would cause his lungs to collapse.
They have put a tube in this chest area that is now draining this air. We are thankful they caught this ahead of time.
Currently, his ICP levels are about the same. The paralyzer started to wear off at one point and our little fiesty guy was trying to pull on his tubes. It has been confirmed by the male nurses here that he is one strong dude.
