Donation protected
Hi my name is mat bishop and John labaff needs your help. Just to update everyone John LaBaff went to sleep normally Wednesday but by midnight he started gasping for air I had thought he was snoring so I got up and went to his side of the bed and realized he couldn’t breath he then sat up and flung hisself over and started seizing i did cpr and called 911 but he was out for more than 5 mins waiting in EMS they had to shock him 3 times and had him on a medical compression machine to do cpr as they rushed him to the medical center he had a heart cath and an ultrasound and ct there’s no blockages and all labs look fine but after ct he coded 2 more times at this point he’s a medical anomaly they don’t have answers he’s on the ventilator due to swelling in the brain and they have his temp set at 36 c to cool him to get the swelling down. They are going to try and wake him this morning. as of now the vent is doing all the work if they removed it he wouldn’t make it so this is serious and we are worried about this stubborn man yesterday we went in to see him and he’s moving his legs around so they will have to sedate him more but that’s a good sign they said. They are going on the assumption he has myocarditis and once stable he is going to need a pacemaker and defibrillator. so please send prayers our way and keep them coming also if anyone would like to help out I hate to even say this but I could use it as she’s as Johns income is all we have. Wakemed hospital has a hotel here on the third floor for cardiac families. I can’t go home it’s just to far away from him. We have a very long road ahead of us for recovery and the price of food here at the hospital is outrageous! If anyone wants to help out I would greatly appreciate it.
