Pleurisy

What Is Pleurisy?
Pleurisy, also called pleuritis, is an inflammation of the pleura, which is the moist, double-layered membrane that surrounds the lungs and lines the rib cage. The condition can make breathing extremely painful. Sometimes it is associated with another condition called pleural effusion, where excess fluid fills the area between the membrane's layers.- From WebMD

I am currently sitting beside my poor sick husband and my sympathetic schnauzer. I hope the rest and anti-inflammatory medicine will make him feel better.
