Update #15 More Hospital Stuff

Hi, all,
Because the pleural space is not draining as much as the doctors had hoped, they moved the drain (tube) this evening and put Terrie on morphine, to accommodate the pain. They will be injecting her with something to cause the tissue to scar so that there won't be any place inn the pleural space for the fluid to collect. And they'll be doing an MRI to see what they have accomplished.

Grandma is staying with Marisa, so all is well there. Please keep Marisa in your prayers -- this has got to be a little disconcerting for a 15-year-old to face.

I'll try to give you an update tomorrow on how things are going for Terrie. God bless you all!

Under His mercy,
Marty
