Hello everyone! This is Mike Bennett’s daughter (Ashley Bennett) speaking on behalf of my dad.
I wanted to share an update on my dad. In mid July he was admitted to Jewish Hospital with double pneumonia. After being in the hospital for several days he was sent home with an oxygen tank. After lots of testing, the doctors diagnosed him with pulmonary sarcoidosis. For now he is going to have to be on oxygen at all times to maintain the adequate level of oxygen his body needs, as his lungs can not produce it on their own right now. We’re hoping that he won’t have to be on oxygen forever, but it is keeping him going for right now (and for that we are so thankful!) With the assistance of his wonderful workers, he has now been able to return to work. He is slowly improving, but continued prayers and positive thoughts for my amazing dad would be very much appreciated. ❤️
