Thread Name: Obit: John Prine (1946-2020)
Subject: RE: 29 March 2020 - John Prine very ill with corona
How about the text of Fiona Prime's tweet?
"This is John's 8th day in ICU. He is receiving excellent medical care and being treated with kindness and compassion by the entire team looking after him day and night. I cannot be with him which makes this nightmare all the more distressing ...
...As you know, John was put on a ventilator last Sunday. He still needs quite a bit of help with his breathing. Like many patients currently in ICU beds all around the world, John has pneumonia in both lungs. He has also developed some peripheral issues that are being treated with meds, including antibiotics.
He is very ill and yet I remain hopeful that he can continue to fight this devastating virus and come home where we can care for him. I don't have the words to adequately Thank You for all the outpouring of love and prayers that John and our family have received this past week. Please continue to send Love, Prayers and Positive Energy to John. He needs us now more than ever. John loves you and I love you too."
