Chicago and the ER

Well as of yesterday Brent was starting to feel not himself. He had a fever, feet were swelling up, coughing more and just more tired than normal. He went to work thinking if it wasn't better today we would call the Dr. Yesterday came and went and he did good and got a lot of work done the only thing that bothered him before we went to bed was his feet from standing on them and being swollen. This morning he woke up and was doing his morning routine. He started coughing and bringing up phlegm that had bright red blood in it. So we called the Dr's up here in Chicago and they told us to go to the ER...which we knew to do but what to do until then.....they didn't give us anything really relevant. So we headed up here about 7:45. Got to the ER at 9:30 this morning. They have done chest x-rays, labs and now they are in doing a bronchoscopy. The x-ray showed pneumonia in his L lung. The labs all look OK. The plan is to keep him over night at least and go from there. They are going to have to get culture results back from this bronchoscopy to see if there is any rejection at all, but the Dr. is thinking there isn't it's just the pneumonia for now.
Thanks again to all of our co-workers who are here for us and help us out in many ways! We appreciate you ALL!!! Even if you do do the hallway races with out me Vicki!:)
