Update on Dr. Garrisi, 9/8/09 ...

Basically my father is not doing well.

The primary care physician thinks he has an infection. Further, he was put on dialysis yesterday and again today because his kidneys and liver are not functioning properly. CT scans of his head and stomach were done last week. They plan to repeat these again tomorrow (Wednesday) to see if he has had a stroke or if he has some internal damage. Also, they plan to do an echo cardiogram to see how his heart is doing.

My mother talked with the surgeon who said that it takes two days to know if the dialysis helped. That would mean Thursday.

Our comfort is that my father and mother both are in the hands of the God who loves them and has a plan for them that leads to heaven.

the Rev. John Garrisi
