Hi everyone,
I appreciate everyone's prayers for my dad that my husband has been asking for. He has a lot of fluid in his lungs which is causing him to have a really hard time breathing. He's having an echo and a sleep apnea test tomorrow, so please pray for good results that can be controlled by medicine, but if he has to have a procedure to correct it, pray that all goes well with that too. My dad is such a great person with deep faith, so I know that he will be taken care of.
My Dad just got a call from his doctor who read his test. He has to go to the ER and probably be admitted. Not sure what they saw, but on my way now. Please keep the prayers coming.
Thank you.
Jen
Jen,
We have kept your father in our prayers since Mikey first posted. He will continue to be in our prayers as long as needed. Prayers are also being said for you and your family as you deal with the all of the uncertainty.
Just found out that the results of my Dad's echo came back normal! His heart is functioning normally, no leaky valves or anything! We've ruled out cancer and a heart problem, so we're narrowing down what's causing the fluid in his lung. Thank you all so much for the love and support. Please keep the prayers coming!
My Dad sees his PCP and the pulminologist on Thursday. Still haven't gotten any answers. Dad went back to work on Monday and had trouble breathing a couple of times. Please pray that they find what the problem is and that it's the easiest fix possible. Thank you all and Merry Christmas!
Dad's pulminologist said the fluid level he has now is the same as it was when he left the hospital. They couldn't take it all off because he had passed out during the procedure. The fluid that was tested was not suspicious at all! He goes back in 6 weeks to get another x-ray. If the fluid is the same or lower, I think they will just continue with check-ups. If there is more fluid, he would need to go see a surgeon for further testing. Please continue to pray for him and thanks for all you've done!
Please keep my dad in your prayers today, he's having his follow up xray and bloodwork today. Thank you so much for all the love and support. Dad got annointed a few weeks ago, so I have faith that he will be ok. He looks good and is feeling better. Also, my husband and I are flying to Denver today and traveling home next Wednesday. Please pray for a safe, happy trip! Thank you!
The fluid is back on my Dads lung. They aren't ruling out pneumonia, but he may have to go back into the hospital again. PLEASE pray for him and our family. Thank you for all you've done.
