Default Thoughts and Prayers requested for agentf1

Many of you may know Frank as the "king of bling" and how he can take a dull finish and make it shine!

Last week Frank had his regularly scheduled catscan to make sure his previous lung cancer was still gone. (Almost 10 years ago Frank survived lung cancer). The cat scan revealed a non cancer problem. The one lung he has left is leaking air into his chest cavity potentally causing it to collapse. He has been in the hospital for a few days. Today they filled his chest cavity with an anti-biotic which was suppossed to seal the leak. He could not take all the medicine that they wanted him to. They may try to do the rest tomorrow or may try another procedure.

I spent a few hours with him tonight and I will say he looked really good, much better than I expected. He is in Jefferson in Phila, room #1016B if anyone wants to send him something or call. He can use his cell phone, if you want the number call me for it at 610-742-7437.

AND of course please keep him in your thoughts and prayers
