Papa has been admitted to the hospital once again.  He had a fall last night around 10:00.  He was in the bathroom and fell backwards hitting his back on the counter as he went down.  He rode by ambulance to LGMC emergency room. They performed an xray and have found that the T9 vertebrate is fractured.  He was in terrible pain, so they have given him pain meds and is resting well now.He was scheduled for a CT scan this morning anyway , so they did it last night .  There is some fluid in his stomach area according to the scan.  His white cell count had been rising again, which is why the CT was ordered.  We are now waiting on Dr. Breaux to come in. Will update as soon as we know what the results are.
