Default Fighting wing

Prayers outbound from the A-10 heartland here in Tucson.

I?ve never met Yobo but, after being a fighter flight doc for 6 years, if anyone can pull through this it?s someone with his background and the support of the VAF and military flying communities.

Smokey,

Thanks, many prayers and much strength headed to our SWA and RV/Rocket Formation Bro, Yobo.

I've been talking with his KC Flight Wingmen and monitoring his Caring Bridge site...He's in a great place (Baylor Med), is stable on the ventilator (as Oly said), with good vitals, and is participating in the clinical trial of one of the promising drugs.

The all-FFI message went out tonight, to add to the caravan of prayer warriors on Yobo's team.

"Fight's On!"

Sincerely,
Bob

Default Update on Yobo

Update from Karin: still improved on the vent. Vital signs good. At 50% oxygen with positive pressure down to 5 (good sign) oxygen sat is 97%. They are decreasing his paralytic medicines some. That is separate from the sedation meds. All good signs. Drs. want to keep him on the ventilator until at least 6 April

Default Yobo

Yobo came out of hibernation today and is off the ventilator and recovering. KC Flight ain’t shavin’ till he leaves the hospital. Our prayers were answered, KC Flight can breathe again.



Ok all you KC Bums, time for your beard pics. #Yobostrong
