Pulm/GI
Bronch scheduled march 22 and will be under sedation. Pulm. wants GI in there but my GI is a Banner doc. not Catholic Healthcare West. SO today we are going back to Finch… otherwise known as Grinch. Hopefully he will agree to to do a endo at the same time so he is only under and vented once. The Bronchoscopy is a procedure that will squirt saline down his lung and try to get all the secretions out of the bottom pocket of his lung and take samples. It is risky for infection and the fact he may not come off the vent.. as is a worry with every sedation. But I am not worried. Hopefully he can have both done at the same time.
Everyone go wish Santana’s buddy Izak a VERY happy birthday! This is an amazing family that TRULY walks by faith!

Can you email me about your experiences with Dr. Mannesfahr? Would you go again? What improvements have you seen? What did the cost end up being?
Thanks,
Teresa

Lindsey We will be praying for him on March 22, well extra prayer I pray for him every night right before I fall asleep. I could never go back to Dr.Fintch/Grinch/grouch! Good Luck with w/ the bronc. Jake had one done and they found milk in his lungs. It is an awesome test as I am sure he has had one done before.You and James are doing a great job!
