LOOK INSIDE THE BOOK! Chapter 14: ACCORDING TO MY ABILITY AND JUDGEMENT
When is this nightmare going to end? he wondered. President Trump spoke of reaching the other side by Easter, which fell on April 12. That day arrived with warm sunny weather in Dallas but no end in sight. A couple of days later McCullough was informed that a staff member at Presbyterian Village had come down with Covid, but that she’d had no contact with his father. Then his mother called to say that his dad’s spring allergies were flaring up, as he sounded congested on the phone. Then he got the call that his dad had tested positive for Covid.
By then McCullough knew that isolating the disoriented man from his wife hadn’t protected him because he was still exposed to nursing home staff. While his wife had little contact with anyone, staff members had close contact with innumerable persons in multiple facilities every day. So now his father—an octogenarian suffering from a multi-fractured pelvis and senile dementia—had symptomatic COVID-19.
McCullough’s mother informed the facility’s administrators that her husband had long ago signed a directive stating that he never wanted to be kept alive by artificial life support. This meant that, in the event of acute respiratory distress, sending him to the hospital to be put on a ventilator was out of the question. Considering this, the facility made way for a Covid unit on the top floor of its Corrigan Administrative building, and Thomas McCullough was their first patient.
How to save his father’s life? Disabled by the pelvic fracture, he spent most of the time on his back, which reduced his respiratory mechanical function. Judging by the mortality data out of China and Milan for a patient his age, with his health problems (include diabetes) his chances of survival were less than 50% and probably around 20%. McCullough knew that his newly acquired knowledge was only fragmentary and fraught with uncertainty. In accordance with my ability and judgement. He would just have to do the best he could.
By a stroke of luck, the doctor’s assistant assigned to look after his father was open to taking directions from McCullough.
“The weather is beautiful, so the first thing we do is open all the windows to get fresh air into the room to reduce the inoculum,” he told her. The doctor’s assistant was game to do this.
“Secondly, let’s put him on a twice daily dose of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin, plus aspirin and lovenox.”
In the days that followed, McCullough’s father got very sick and lost his appetite. Dehydration set in, and his blood pressure dropped. They tried to administer IV fluids, but his veins had retracted too much to place the needle. And so, McCullough instructed the staff to perform the pediatric method of sticking the needle into the abdominal fat. They later succeeded in drawing a vial of blood and saw that his serum sodium level was 151 milliequivalents per liter, which meant he was catastrophically dehydrated. Finally, they succeeded in getting enough fluids in him, and kept him on the medications for thirty days. He lost forty-two pounds, but he pulled through. Through the illness, the nurses noted that all he wanted was protein shakes. This turned out to be a wise choice for a diabetic, for as would soon be discovered, severe disease strongly correlated with high blood sugar.
There’s an archetypal myth at least as old as the ancient Egyptian god Horace, who retrieved his father from the underworld. For the child, the father represents order and security. The passage from childhood innocence to full adult awareness is expressed as venturing into an extremely dark place to rescue one’s father. This involves being shorn of all comforting illusions and security and facing the full horror of our mortal existence. At the age of fifty-seven, McCullough had seen and learned a lot. He’d completed vast medical training, gotten married, fathered two children, and held leadership positions in major hospitals.
And yet, he’d always lived in a structured environment governed by well-established procedures. Most aspects of his life had seemed settled on the assumption he would finish his career at Baylor and enjoy a comfortable retirement. Within this powerful institution, he held a ranking position that gave him high social status and generous remuneration and health benefits. His professorship at its affiliated medical school provided him with additional authority and prestige. As most of his colleagues could attest, reaching such a position was the culmination of decades of study and work.
Undertaking the task of treating his father for the novel disease required going far beyond the familiar routines and procedures of his institution. The anguish of seeing his old dad laid low, and the victory of bringing him back from death’s threshold, was a trial from which he emerged with an expanded sense of himself and his responsibility. It prepared him to play a role in human affairs far beyond that of a conventional doctor. He could not and did not sit back and let the virus slaughter his father, and he wasn’t about to let that happen to his patients or those across the globe. COVID-19 was a treatable illness, counter to what our government agencies and the media were telling us!
