RE:Need some information

Hi! Bebop and Neil

Thank you for the response. My father had serious problems breathing yesterday he couldn't even talk, they gave him some breathing treatments and an oxygen mask. He does have pneumonia in one of his lungs. But the doctors were checking to see if something else was going on (bacterial or fungal infection) to cause the breathing to be that bad. He is currently on chemo pills, Hydroxurea to help lower his white cell count. But it's also causing some damage to his kidneys. My father is also diabetic. Blood transfusion was given to him Friday and yesterday. They will possibly give him another blood transfusion today depending on his test results.

I was actually thinking of trying to transfer him to another hospital as my father has gotten worse since he's been there.

Neil thank you sooo much for the list. Loyola hospital was actually one of my choices to try transfering my father too.
