It's now Tuesday and he's recovering slowly. He's still in Intensive Care.<br><br> They scared me pretty badly this morning when they called to tell me they had to put in a breathing tube. I just talked to the respiratory physician and
the surgeon and they both reassure me that it's only to let him rest and heal. There's some expected fluid buildup around his lungs that was making it hard for him to breath. All his vital signs are normal now, the pancreatitis appears to be getting better from the lab tests, and the surgeon tells me he hasn't lost any ground at all.<br><br>This is all taking place in Cincinnati. Our friends are taking excellent care of us here. One has loaned me an apartment for the duration, others work at the hospital and keep tabs on things, others are feeding us. It's as good a situation as it can possibly be away from home.<br><br>Gay<br>_______________________________________________<br>Haldeman-announce mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:Haldeman-announce@mit.edu" href="/mc/compose?to=Haldeman-announce@mit.edu">Haldeman-announce@mit.edu</a><br><a href="http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/haldeman-announce"
