Jr is doing better, I just talked to him on the phone and he said that his eyes are not yellow and that the billirubens count is down from 5 to 2 1/2 so they are talking about releasing him to go home and set up and appointment for a scope exam to run down his throat to see want they need to do, they are still leaning toward a gallbladder, temp is down to normal, so looks as tho' he is out of the woods or at least on the treeline.. thanks to all for your support... paul sr
