    Default John

    I don't know how to title this other then to just put "John".
    The past 24 hours have been pure hell. As my last post stated he has bleeding in his lungs, however after more intense testing found it was more then they imagined. He also had issues with his heart. However they are not sure if it is the disease or if it is his heart trying to deal with other parts of his body failing.
    They admitted him into cardiac ICU. They decided to do the plasma exchange. They say this is the last resort. He is in such bad shape they advised me to have the kids brought to ths hospital today. They say the next 48 Hours are crucial. He also had a blood transfusion of 3 pints today.
    It has been a long day.

    All my prayers and good thoughts coming your way, Stephanie. One thing that might comfort you is that plasma exchange has often been the very thing that revives someone in deep trouble. Please keep us posted.
