I was so glad to hear they changed his status - it's one step at a time sometimes! That septic shock stuff is a b-----, but you got him to the hospital and he's on meds, that's great.
The pneumatic booties, they also have pneumatics for the lower legs, inflate periodically and then deflate. They keep that blood moving from his lower extremities back up towards his torso. Moving blood is less likely to clot. It sounds like they have that on his legs now, so that's good.
We're going to keep praying.
