She wrote “All of my heart goes out to my father Rickie Lee Reynolds right now. For those who are unaware, he has been hospitalized for a while now, with Covid. Soon after, the doctors had found that he was suffering from kidney failure. As of today, they had begun dialysis, but his blood pressure had dropped too low for them to retain it for long. This morning he suffered from cardiac arrest, in which they performed CPR and shocked him twice to bring back his heartbeat. At this moment, he is heavily sedated and unconscious. There has been no viable verbal or physical response from him today other than a response of fighting the tubes in his lungs. The nurses say that they are also unsure if cardiac arrest might have done some damage to the brain, but they are unable to move him into MRI until his condition stabilizes further. This is all that I know right now, but I think telling everyone might bring out some positive energy that he desperately needs right now. For anyone that knows and cares for this amazing man, please be with me in sending all of our best energy to him. May he push past all of this damage and live to spend many more days with all of us.”
