Julie's Update from Germany

- Rick does not have the LC condition(LC is a condition called lymphoangio......./not good for prognosis and was a consideration when viewing the CT by Dr. Rolle in Germany/we were all freaked out by even the thought), milky white substance is a result of chemo, should resolve over time, Rolle says this is very important info. He didn't say, but I think this would make him a candidate now for the other side to be done as the LC would indicate widespread cancer over the entire lung, which is not the case

- Line in neck will be removed tomorrow, switching to oral pain meds

- Suction will be turned off, they will switch to a bag to hold the lung fluid, no longer attached to the pole which will improve mobility

- Working on snap freeze at the university, they are doing this special for us, currently only done for kidney cancer study. Will follow up

- Paraffin has not been sent, we have these, Rolle feels it's better to bring home and then send.

-Incentive spirometer up to 4000

God is good all the time.
