So right now the outlook is not good. I ask that you pray for his recovery and if he does not recover that he not suffer. Also prayers for my wife to help her through this would be appreciated.

I know that people don't want to be put on a vent to stay alive but if you have a hope that the underlying cause can be corrected and coming off the vent in the future that would not be against his wishes. If they can't get it corrected you can always take him off the machine and follow his wishes.
Positive thoughts heading your way.
