Missouri pastor recovering after 86 days on a ventilator due to COVID-19
“David is on the road to recovery. He has made great progress,” she said.
Fitzmaurice said she and David tested positive for COVID-19 on August 17th, and while her symptoms were mild, his were not.
“Every symptom that was listed on the CDC website, David had,” said Fitzmaurice.
Patty said David’s condition got so bad she called an ambulance and he was eventually taken to DePaul Hospital. She said David was put on a ventilator the first day and stayed on a ventilator for 86 days.
Fitzmaurice said several times, doctors told her that David probably wouldn’t make it and that the family should start making preparations.
