I truly have been trying to piece together what is going on and so far, I just don&#39;t have all the pieces. My guess is, he had some sort of cardiac event at home. Then he developed pneumonia. I think he may have been in congestive heart failure or pulmonary edema (lungs filling up with fluid and drowning in one&#39;s own body fluids). I don&#39;t really thing too much of the health care in Florida, so I don&#39;t want to be negative.<br />Lee&#39;s sister mentioned swelling in his legs and that would fit the picture. <br />We are playing it by ear as to whether Lee needs to go down there now or wait til later..........Not sure how much he will recover, at this point.<br /><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br />it sounds to me if lee could get away for a few days he should nothing beats &quot;first hand information&quot; and if it is as you believe .. he should be there anyway.... jmo
