A minister I met years ago who recently died, was healthy until he contracted the disease and was put on a vent. From what I've been told by his family, once on the vent, his organs just shut down.
I read that the mortality rate for people put on a vent is somewhere between 80-90%. It's so high that Drs are re-thinking how soon patients are put on one and doing other treatments to try and keep them off the vent.

This is so true...
The young man I mentioned the other day in a post, Andrew Coffield... 29 years old, in good health, youth pastor and new father, and was on a ventilator for over a week.
A week ago Friday he was critical, and we all believe it was the prayers of the faithful who touched the Throne! Andrew is home, praise the Lord!
