Please say a prayer for one of my best friends. Good news in OP.
His name is Don and he's one of the nicest and best people you could imagine. Give you the shirt off his back kind of person.

I'm not going to share anymore details because he's a member of the shooting community and there is likely someone here who might know him.

He's currently in a coma and had dangerously high temps (luckily not for too long). He's a fighter and has beat more ailments in the last few years than many face in a lifetime. Still I think prayer power will increase his odds.

*Update, my friend is awake and I'm going to visit him Saturday. Thank you for your prayers.

Done. Prayers sent.

I'm not sure what put him in the coma, but a friend of mine had a heart attack and I believe was in a coma when they found him. He was taken to Baylor in Dallas. They have a reputation as one of the best hospitals in the state.
After a couple of months they were at wits end. They had just talked to his wife to tell her it was time to take him off life support just when we arrived for a visit. Another nurse came to ask her permission to try a procedure that presumed he had developed Guillain-Barre Syndrome. The theory was it had taken hold while he was comatose. There is no test for this, they simply proposed a blood plasma exchange treatment as a last ditch effort to save him.
They were right and it worked. He did have to undergo speech and swallowing therapy because of the tracheotomy and extended intubation, but he came out of it.

"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
