Location: Baltimore, MD | Hi folks.
A quick update on S.M.F. brother Felipe in Brazil (known on the slam board as "Freakrocker")
I chatted with Felipe briefly just after he left the hospital. Unfortunately, his time at home was short, and he suffered a significant setback while going through dialysis. He had an allergic reaction and suffered respiratory failure. He has since developed a serious infection and has slipped back into a coma. He has been in a coma for several weeks, and recently was able to open his eyes briefly but he remains on a ventilator in the ICU. His fiancé and sister both tell me that the infection has not responded to antibiotics and his condition has worsened once again. For those of you in Brazil (and this board has quite a few), if you are in the Sao Paulo area, --his family has asked that any available friends donate blood under his name to the hospital. PM if you need the details.
For those of us around the world outside of Brazil, please continue to keep Felipe in your thoughts and prayers. |
