Mike is feeling better.  Thank you for remembering us in your prayers.  The cough is less frightening to listen to.  I believe between the Levaquin, the prescription cough gel tablet, and the Robitussin DM, things are improving. 

The Home Health nurse came out and said Mike's lungs sounded clear.  I told her my concern and she told me it doesn't sound like there is any fluid or pnuemonia sounds.  I'm also relieved because Mike is coughing up the phlegm, without throwing up and losing any foods or medications.  They did say Mike's blood pressure was very low.  They even tried taking it in a his ankle which gave out a low number.  She suggested Mike drink some coffee to help raise his blood pressure.

Following the visit, Mike and I went to Cracker Barrel to use a gift card we were given from my mom.  Mike made a good attempt at a roast beef plate.  Then later he came home and snacked.  He also drank a Boost shake which gave him 15 mg of protein, and Amber had ordered some special juice that helps give a high level of protein in one ounce.  So we're working on trying to rebuild Mike's appetite and get rid of these sores.  Please continue to pray that we make progress in this area.

We appreciate everyone's kindness and concern.
