I'm really concerned about my uncle - he's in the hospital and I was told his lungs are finished. Is that something that can actually happen or am I missing something? He's unable to talk or do much of anything. He also has TB and HIV, so I'm wondering how that affects things. Can you help me understand what's going on with him?

I'm really worried about my dad. I've attached his recent chest CT scan, and I'm hoping you can help explain what's going on. He was diagnosed with COPD last year, and I'm not sure how this scan relates to that. What should I be looking out for?
