Back to John,s Hopkins

Hello,

We are sorry that we have not gotton back to you all sooner but we did not hear from Hopkins until today. Al will be admitted to Hopkins April 20. He has fluid on his lungs once again. This will be the fourth time that he will have fluid taken off his lungs since the major operation. After he is amitted he will have chest x-ray, cat scan, blood work taken etc. On Wed. or Thursday the doctor will make two incisions on one of his lungs. He will drain the lung then scrape the lung. Then they will watch Al to see how he does with the procedure. After a few days the doctor will do the same procedure on the opposite lung. This will solve the problem of the lungs filling up with fluid. It sounds like Al will be in the hospital for about a week.

Please pray as the Lord leads,



With much love,
Sherry
