(Day+319) - Thought i should update that Mauro was admitted into Alfred ICU today (Monday). Due to extreme fluid retention (he is currently carrying approx 9kg fluid over whole his whole body), Mauros heart had stopped pumping blood to his organs, and his Kidneys and Liver stopped functioning. The fluid around his heart left no room for his heart to expand, and in fact had shrunk his heart. He was defined as being in early stages of arrest. In what I can only describe as an extremely organized and professional chaos the team of Docs and Nurses (special mention to his always amazing team at 7East!!) jumped into action and rushed him into ICU where the vast team of Cardiologists proceeded with a needle into his heart to drain fluid and enabled his heart to begin functioning again. He is currently in a stable condition. There are a myriad of complications still surrounding Mauro...but again he never ceases to amaze me/us!!! He is still fighting strong and hard!!! He has definitely earnt his namesake of Rocky...time and time again!! I am truly in awe of him! 💖💑💖 Go Rocky!! 👊👊
