One of our guys briefly got into the ICU by pretending to be his brother. He has been in an induced coma since he was admitted because his blood pressure was dangerously high and would spike even more when they tried to "work on him". Over the last couple days they have been weaning him off some of the drugs. He is breathing on his own but has not woken up. They have determined he likely had very high blood pressure for a lot of years and something finally had to give. His lady friend said he probably had not been to a doctor since he retired about 15 years ago. I hope he can retain quality of life, but he's got a long hard battle in front of him if he pulls through this.
