My father, Paul, is in critical care this morning in Beaver, PA and the doctor's don't know what is wrong with him. It started Thursday with sharp pains on his right side and now his lung is showing up white on the x-ray. They didn't know yet whether it was fluid or air. Everyone, please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. I want my next post to say he is getting better and will be fine. I'll be off line for a few days.
*****Update, the doctor drained 1/2 a gallon of fluid out of my Dad's chest. He said after initial testing it is definitely NOT congestive heart failure but the fluid is an inflammatory response. They are doing further testing to see if it is an infection or something else. In the mean time, with the help of draining the fluid and a CPAP machine (used for people with sleep apnea) his oxygen levels are good, he's feeling better and starting to joke around. He is, however, still in critical care. More in a day or so as I get info. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. Keep them up, they are helping.******
