Please pray for my brother, who lives in the NYC region and got swine flu, which rapidly turned into double pneumonia. He then had a seizure, stopped breathing and had to be revived on the table, ended up on a ventilator at the ICU. He had been there since Thursday. Last night his lung partially collapsed. They are trying to move him to a bigger hospital, but he has not been stable enough.
I went down to pick up my nephew (his only child) to stay with us, so that his wife can be at the hospital for him.
He is only 42 and has never had health problems before.
thanks
ETA: Update in new post.

Thank you so much for your prayers, Ladies. They are really bringing me comfort. I have not yet heard any news today, except that they have been still unable to move him. I am really praying for some kind of breakthrough soon!
