Prayer Request for My Dad

As some of you already know, my father was hospitalized last June and had over a liter of fluid removed off of his heart.

He was admitted into KUMED again yesterday, and they performed an emergency procedure this morning to remove fluid from his lungs.  They removed a little over 2.5 liters of fluid from his right lung this morning, which was much worse than they had anticipated.  There is still more, but they cannot remove more without waiting.  If they take too much it will throw his lungs into shock (I forget the technical term, but it sounded like a heart attack for the lungs).

Anyway, he is doing good.  There is a little discomfort and some coughing fits as his lungs come back “online,” but he already feels better and is showing an improved lung capacity that is much better than was expected.

Please pray for my father, our family, and the specialists who are working diligently to bring immediate relief & eventual healing.

Many thanks & blessings!
