In the hospital again!

I am beginning to wonder if the VA Hospital is Dad's/Grandpa's "home away from home"! But seriously, I drove Mom/Grandma and Dad down to the VA Hospital Thursday afternoon. He hadn't been feeling well for a week and went to see the Doctor in Smithfield. He told him to go to the Hospital now and not wait. He was having a difficult time breathing. After many tests in the Hospital, they found out that he has a large amount of water on the lungs, which caused his heart stress by having to pump harder to get oxygen. Because of his heart transplant, his kidneys have been under extreme stress for many years. They are barely working. This is one of the reasons his lungs are filling up with water. Plus his leg looked like it was ready to pop, because of so much water retention. After a few breathing treatments, mega doses of lasix, and oxygen, he is breathing much better but still raspy. He will have to be in the hospital a few days.
