A little update on Dave's Dad. Warren is in the hospital and has been there for over 2 weeks now. At first, he was admitted because he had a collapsed lung. He has Emphesema and an Intestinal Blockage as well. They did some surgery last Wednesday to alleviate a little of the problem, but they have to wait until he's stronger to really take care of the blockage. He has a hole in his lung the size of a quarter and there is fluid in and around his lungs. Sunday night, he pulled his Colostomy bag off and has developed an infection from it. He is very disoriented and confused a lot of the time. They have had to restrain his arms to keep him from pulling anything else off. Dave and his sisters have been spending a lot of time visiting him. Maybelle has been a real trooper through all of this.
