Praying for Jim’s comfort and healing. May he feel Gods presence every minute as he heals.
Thanks for the update. Sepsis is very serious. Hubby had it. After he came home he still had to do antibiotic injections. Prayers will continue.
That is good news. We are all pulling for him to make a full recovery.
Prayers up for Jim Robinson!
Hopefully there’s a way Chris can push them to get him on high dose vitamin C.

Abstract
Purpose: Vitamin C has shown benefits in patients with sepsis in addition to standard therapy recently. However, further evidence is required to verify the efficacy of vitamin C in clinical practice. This study aimed to investigate the effect of adjunctive intravenous high-dose vitamin C treatment on hospital mortality in patients with sepsis.
Methods: One hundred seventeen patients with sepsis in our department from June 2017 to May 2019 were randomly divided into two groups: the control group (56 cases) and the vitamin C group (61 cases). The control group was treated by the routine and basic therapy with intravenous drip of 5% dextrose and placebo (100 ml/time, 2 times/day), while the vitamin C group was administered intravenously by 3.0 g vitamin C dissolved into 5% dextrose (100 ml/time, 2 times/day) based on the control group. The mortality and efficacy were statistically analyzed and compared between the two groups.
Results: The 28-day mortality differed significantly between the control group and the vitamin C group (42.97% vs. 27.93%) (p < 0.05). The changes in the sepsis-related organ failure assessment (ΔSOFA) scores at 72 h after ICU admission (4.2 vs. 2.1), the application time of vasoactive drugs (25.6 vs. 43.8), and the procalcitonin clearance (79.6% vs. 61.3%) differed significantly between groups (p < 0.05).
Prayers Up for Mr. Robinson!
I will keep you in my prayers!
