Subject: RE: Larry Rogers
Thanks Sandy. As of this morning, Larry's status is "stable" and he is
about where his doctors expected him to be at this time: machine is
doing his breathing, chest fluid is draining and the kidneys seem to be
kicking back in a bit. He'll be on the Vent and totally out of it for
several more days while his ribs begin to knit and heal. Then it will
take several days to wean him off the ventilator I am told.
You're a rock
