Question 1

I'm really worried about my dad who's 86 and has chronic bronchitis. Right now, he's having some trouble breathing because there's fluid building up in his lungs. Can you suggest any good clinics where we can go to have this fluid drained? I'm just trying to find the best way to help him out.
