TJ Lavin is still in his medically induced coma and is now also battling pneumonia, thanks to the breathing tube that is helping keep him alive.
In spite of that news, things are looking up for Lavin. His buddy/business manager, Chas Aday told People,
“Everything is good there. Doctors are not expecting any [brain damage], but we’re just not going to know until he wakes up if there is any loss or how bad it is going to be.”

The doctors will be removing the breathing tube this weekend as long as the pneumonia has gone. Lavin hasn’t been able to have his shattered wrist operated on yet because of the pneumonia. Once the breathing and feeding tubes are removed, things should move along quickly.
“Getting the tube out is the big thing. That’s what’s holding him back. Once they get the tube out, he could be home two, three, maybe four days later. … They don’t know. It could be a week. It could be two weeks. It really depends on the antibiotics. He’s responding well. He’s squeezing our hands, so he’s responding appropriately. … He is coherent, but not fully awake. He’s following simple commands.”
This is great news! TJ Lavin is a fighter. He’s got a great support system and I think he will be back to his old self before we know! Keep it up TJ!
