Earlier today the nursing staff and doctors noticed Vernon was not releasing liquids. They have done a few tests and as it turns out his kidneys have stopped working. They said this is most likely due to injuries suffered in the accident or the high powered antibiotic they are treating him with (or a combination of both).

They are taking him off one of the antibiotics and they are putting him on dialysis immediately.

I’m not a doctor but my understanding is that they are essentially cleaning his blood through the dialysis machine and pulling liquid out of the blood which in turn should reduce the amount of liquid built up in the lungs.

Please take some time to pray for our good friend Vernon tonight.
