My friend Steve, who has muscular dystrophy, has been hospitalized since we returned from our April 24th Wonder Cruise. It was his 4th cruise & we had an awesome time. He had pneumonia which he got over without complications ( he has respiratory failure & uses a ventilator). Within a few days he was back in the hospital with a gall bladder attack. They did surgery yesterday to remove the gall bladder, but they had to do a temporary tracheostomy for the surgery. The trach should come out by tomorrow, but he is extremely aggravated & they put a feeding tube in his nose which is very uncomfortable. He cannot speak right now because of the trach & they are medicating him to keep him calm. I'll be going back to the hospital to see him this morning. Please pray that his healing process will go smoothly. Thanks. Cathie
