Urgent update on Seth

I am sitting in his Hopital room right now.FINALLY able to post this.
Seth was admitted to the Hospital on Friday night.
He has pnemonia and a very hard case of it.His right lung is 3/4 of the way full of pnemonia and he's not doing to good.
I was finally moved into a private room and asked for a laptop so that I could update my TCS friends.
Guys, I need prayers and prayers like I've never asked before.Seth's temp is 104 and they are talking about possible chest tube.He's not moving air through that lung at all and his temp is not staying down.Right now he is resting as best as he can.You know how Hosp. are though. He gets breathing treaments every 3 hours and they use a precushion (sp) every 6 on him.He is on continuous oxygen and had had 9 full bags of fluid by IV so far.He is on Rosepharin(sp) every 8 hours.
PLEASE guys, I beg you to pray for my little boy.Shawn just left to go home and take care of the other 3 kids and will be back as soon as we get the word surgury is needed.
I have asked to be able to keep this in his room so I can do some research on treatments and all.
If anyone would like to know, he is in Cabell Huntington Hospital in Huntington West Virginia. on the Peds floor room 5364 bed 2

i sent you my number again. feel free to call if you need some company hon i'll let you call me so i won't interfere with doctors visits or anything important!

Much Vibes for Seth. The best thing for him now is IV fluids and antibiotics, plus your love and support. Sounds like he's getting all three! I hope he won't need a chest tube, but if he does, know it's only to help him. I'm hoping for a full and speedy recovery. You'd be surprised how quickly a little guy like him can bounce back once he has the treatment he needs. Fingers crossed that Seth is about to show you just how fast and well he can get past this.

Thanks guys.I'm just so scared.

I am so sorry! I will definately be keeping you and Seth in my prayers tonight
