The doctor came and put another chest tube in Alan's right chest to help with some of the pressure that was building from the small leak in his right lung. The doctor is not very concerned about the leak. They finished the plasmapheresis treatment without any complications again. They have also decreased his oxygen to 80%. Since they are having a harder time keeping Alan sedated they have given him a paralytic so he will not fight the respirator and will be able to rest better.
