he got in the Philippines. After all those weeks and
being in two different hospitals we can confirm it
isn't lung cancer. The bactery he has is Klebsiella.

but it did came back and he ended up again in the
hospital. This time in Porto, Portugal. Four times
and for long periods in hospitals and the bacteria
