Monday 7pm....
Inforgot to update because my countertops did get installed today...

At 10:30 am Larry facetimed me to tell me that had cancelled the port... they think his kidneys are recovering... his numbers were getting better...
Tomorrow they are still going to do a scan oh his arms in case of future fistula, but for now if his numbers keep improving, well......  just pray

He spent most of the day in his chair and other than headache from glucose he is doing well.... they will never give him his at home insulin dosages...

stay tuned....

Prayers please....

This morning the  kidney team will be putting the hemodialysis port back in his neck....
the other was done in an emergency, this one will about 6 inches away from the vein, for less infection risk

I did talk to the doctor yesterday and he said that when Larry came in 10 days ago, his kidney numbers were so high that they were off the chart, and he was amazed that he is now up and feeling as good as he is...

they will also be scanning Larrys arm to see if the fistula graft is going to be possible....
It is so scary that I cannot be there, but he is calm.....
He understands that this is the only way he can live,

we both hope that after a but of time, we MIGHT be able to do the HOME hemodialysis.....  rather than go the a dialysis center 3 days a week...

Bryan, Christie, and kids came out yesterday for a social distance visit, ho hugs, but lots of smiles...
They fished, swang, played on the beach, Madi and I played checkers, then we got carryout, fried shrimp and lobster rolls....
I enjoyed when we all facetimed Larry....
oh had weed pulling contest to see who could get the one with the longest roots, they thought it was fun....  then we used by phone app magnifier to examine those roots

Long day emotionally....  the procedure is planned for 11am, please think of him....
