Monday Morning Call From Mari

Mari just called again. She said she talked more with the doctors and they are taking all the IV's out and putting in what they call a pick line. From what I understand a pick line is a needle that will stay in his arm so that they can administer any medicine or fluids or whatever they need to give him. After the breathing tube came out the doctors noticed that he had lots of phlegm in his throat. The doctors told her the phlegm needs to come out, and his airways need to stay clear. It's very hard for him to cough all that up because his throat is sore from having the breathing tube in. Please pray that his lungs and airways will clear and the phlegm will come out of his throat.
