Hi, understand your predicament. It’s difficult to predict what the prognosis will be, as this will depend on the severity of pneumonia, his present immunity status and the other co morbid conditions like diabetes. If his vitals are stable now, then with appropriate antibiotics and supportive therapy he should be able to recover well. Good luck with his therapy. Regards.
