Please God, Please help Ken.
Please God, Please help Ken. Please help his doctors. Now I am really scared. We had a tough night. They just kicked me out of his room. They are inserting a catheter and a full respirator. They are going to put Ken asleep so they can have the machines breathe for him while they do another Broncial something. They are going into his lungs again for another biopsy. What they syspect is a rare side effect that can happen with one of his chemo drugs where it attacks the walls of his lungs. If they find this, they can treat it with steroids and they say it responds quickly. Usually in 24 hours. But it will take 24-48 hours of growing cultures to see if that is what it is. Am I to hope that is what they find? I just want them to find something besides a cold. Something else is causing this. So he will be kept under for sometime, 2 hours, 2 days. We are moving forward a little at a time. I wish I knew more so I could tell you. Ken was really scared when I told him goodbye. I am too. This can't be happening. His lungs are more full of fluid today. And I feel like I am getting a cold. For the first time all year. I cannot get sick. I cannot get sick. They will not let me in to see him if I get sick. I cannot get sick. Please God, help us.

Please, please get a cardiologist up there. Bob had a weird lung infection in the fall of 2000. He had surgery and couldn't get well. Turns out it had infected his heart and he had to go on several medications. Finally he started to get well after two months of constant trips to the ER. His lungs kept filling up too and now he is being treated for heart failure and doing fine.
