Hi my name is Tiffany and I'm raising money to help my Aunt and Uncle Wutzke who are sitting vigil by their son (and my cousin) Archie.
Archie has pneumonia in both of his lungs and had been in the Penticton, BC hospital but had to be flown to Vancouver General Hospital. This has put a heavy financial burden on Marian and Dale and we would like to help them out as much as possible so they can focus on being there to support Archie.
He is currently intubated and has a machine working very hard to clean his blood and oxygen. I will provide updates here as I get them.
Any assistance you can provide at this time would be so greatly appreciated!!
Love Tiff
Update Dec 12, 2021
Archie is improving.
The doctor removed his intubation tube this morning.
He is still on VVEVMO ( which draws the blood out of his body, removes the Carbon Dioxide from the blood, then oxygenates his blood, then the returns the blood back to him).
He has 30% oxygen going in through a nose tube.
He is breathing on his own. His lungs are still in bad shape but at least no more intubation breathing for him.
Mom said he tried to speak but his throat is really sore from the intubation tube.
He is still slightly sedated.
Praise be to the Lord.
Praise be to everyone praying and keeping Archie in your thoughts.
The family is so thankful for all the love and kindness from everyone.
God bless you All.
Update Dec 11, 2021:
He is stable and still on VVECMO (life support) as well as intubation.
They are slowly bringing him out of the sedation. Mom says he has been moving a lil, holding her hand and opening his eyes.
The doctors and staff are working so hard to figure why his lungs aren’t healing and what infections are ravaging him. His heart is strong and he’s not giving up. If they can get the infections under control I believe it will be ok. Please keep praying for brother.
The whole family thanks you for your kind words, prayers and donations.

UPDATE/THANK YOU From Marian & Dale:
"God has sent us so many loving, caring angels to travel through this dark valley. You are all so wonderful, may God Bless you all. Words cannot express the feelings we are experiencing. Our hearts are filled with such love and appreciation for God Blessing us with all of you.
Archie's care team is wonderful. He is a fighting trooper. His heart is not about to let him down. It keeps beating the gift of life into his tiny, fragile body. I delivered a kiss to his cheek for you and gave him your love. We love you all dearly."
