This week he has been in and out of hospitals in New Orleans, Tulane and Ochsner, He had the catheter in him for about a month, then he started blood clots in his penis, In and out with the catheter of which is horrific, Dr. H. Thomas, is his Doctor and he seems to indicate that there is nothing else to do, not even ease his pain. I am Desperate for more help. Sincerely, Sue Montalbano Martiny
