Hi everybody this is Fred's mom.I just wanted to update all of you. He had alittle setback today (Sunday) the one tube is still in his lung and they did a CT scan and there still are 2 or 3 little pockets around the lung so tomorrow when all the doctor's can talk and look at the scan they can either move the tube to the worse pocket to drawn it,go in there with a catheter and drawn it, or pull the tube and wait and see what happen's if they go away on there own.But tonight while taking a drink of water he chrocked and could not breath.His heart- pulse rate went way up and the nurse had to call the doctor.After all of us telling him to relax and take a deep breath which is really hard with that bad lung we clamed him down somewhat.They did a EKG which was normal except for the high rate and his pain level was down from a 9 to a 5.The doctor called in a specialist for the heart and lung and they ordered more blood test and another chest xray. He told me at 11pm his pain was a 3 but he is extremely fraustered with all this stuff they are doing.No visit's please untill you talk to me Fred's request.My number414 442 8405
