Let Rexy know Pedersen says hey, and I'll be praying for him. Hang tough Rex, and get well soon.

Just left Rex after sitting with him for a couple of hours. They are trying to wean him off of the vent. He did really well on his first test and they are running a second now. He saw me for a bit and I told him that his race family was praying for his quick recovery. They keep him pretty sedated so he doesn't disturb the vent and he can get some much needed rest. The doc will be in later this evening to see if they can pull the vent out. The nurse says he has a long road to recovery so keep those prayers coming please. He is in ICU at St Joseph hospital. He can't have visitors between 2pm and 4pm. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Asha

Talked to Rex's nurse last night and the doc wants to keep him on the vent a bit longer. I will go visit here shortly and give any updates. Right now it's just mostly a waiting game to get the infection in his body under control. Continued prayers please.
Sincerely,
Asha

Brent and I just left ICU visiting Rex. Things are still pretty much the same. He is still on the vent and his temp around 100. He does open his eyes for a bit when I talk to him. I tell him about everyone asking about him and all the prayers. I can't wait for him to get off the vent so he can talk to me. Love to all and keep praying!

Left Rex at 5:30. He is still sedated and on the vent, but he seemed a little more alert. We couldn't stay long because when he hears familiar voices he gets excited and starts overbreathing the machine. He is holding his own. His temp is staying steady. Have been passing on well wishes. Thanks to all for the concern.

Thanks for the update Funkster, let him know he's sorely missed around the race track.

Left Rex at 5:45 on Weds. He is still being weened off the respirator,and the nurse said it was going well. He is still heavily sedated, but looked at us the whole time we talked to him. He still has a very long road ahead. Thank you to everyone for the concern.
