A doctor from the pulmonary practice came in and took an ultra sound using a small hand held machine that had a 12 x 12 screen attached to the 'wand' thing. Kind of amazing. It showed that he has fluid between his lung and lung sac.
Nancy I ran some errends and had lunch. Afterwards I pooped and threw up at the same time. (nerves, stress and Crohn's) So Nancy went back to ER room. He was miserable.
BUT... then a room became available in the acutal hospital. (The angels were singing....) Nancy went up with him and Mike came to the new room after work. It was bright and clean and had space and more. He was happy to be there. The doctor also increased his pain meds. Relief. Nancy left and Mike stayed for a while a. Mike says he was finally starting to feel a little better. And he 'happy as a pig in mud' to be moving the bed into a way that was comfortable.
However, The doctor yesterday said that he would be surprised if Murray did not have cancer. Which is heartbreaking sad to us all.
We will get biopsy results Thursday or Friday. Nancy is going to stay a couple more days. Tomorrow they plan to remove the liquid from the lung sack in his room. I am so glad.
