Fox News shared further details:
Doctors are not yet sure what caused the infection and continue to run tests to determine the root of the cause. While Aaron’s medical team said his status is “day by day,” Margarita remained optimistic about his prognosis and said her husband is “a very strong fighter.”
“After the 911 call, we went to the hospital and the doctors determined to put him on an endotracheal tube because his breathing was a little sporadic,” Margarita said. “They’re continuing to run tests right now to find out what the root cause of the issue is.”
She added, “He’s still on antibiotics, blanket antibiotics to just cover whatever the issue might be with regard to his blood.”
The veteran is “making significant progress” each day with “little moments where he’s moving his fingers or trying to open his eyes.”
“He opened his eyes today and gave a thumbs up,” she told the outlet.
“He’s showing a lot of improvement. We all have faith in God that he will walk out of here fully recovered,” she added.
