Frank had been coughing blood for 6 days with no sign of healing so he is at Hermann hospital and will have a scope in the morning.

Poor Frank. I hope that he is feeling better soon. I hate it so much when our kids have to go to the hospital.

I am sorry Frank's in the hospital. I hope you get answers quickly and that Frank gets to go home soon.

Thinking of you and Frank!

That's happened to Luke as well. It ended up being an infection and antibiotics cleared it up fast. I hope that's the case with Frank. Praying for a quick recovery.
