A note concering Dennis Jinks

    So far as I know all diagnostic testing on Denny has been completed,  and the culprit discovered.  It's amniodorone pulmonary toxicity, an extremely rare condition resulting from the use of the drug amniodorone to treat atrial fibrillation.   He has been on the drug for 8 months.  Treatment will involve fairly high doses of steroids and could take some time.  His oxygen levels will need to be monitored in the home and he will need to have it available.  We are meeting with his primary physician in the morning.  Denny will spend a couple of more days in the hospital here in Birmingham, as his steroid dose is regulated.  Thankful for neighbors looking after the home front.  Denny enjoys phone calls, so feel free to call on his cell.  Thanks again, Hope
