Hi everyone!
Well it has been awhile since I posted anything my dad has been getting worse. I decided to take a leave of absence from work to be home with him. For those who don't know my dad has a feeding tube and is unable to swallow or talk at all. He has a lot of respitory problem with continual mucus build up. A few days ago the homecare nurse was in and told me that he has fluid in the lungs and to watch for a fever. So my question is can this fluid dry up on its own and can anything else happen besides phnemonia?
Thanks,
Wendy
