I am sitting in my daddy's hospital room watching my sweet mama sitting by his bedside holding his hand and just watching him sleep. Oh what a love they share!! He is squeezing her hand and she is smiling at him.
The dr. regulated his defibrilator last night so his heart rate is better. We learned the other plan from Dr. H today. He said that he can go in with a syringe and poke around that sack of fluid (which is the consistency of leather instead of jello!) and try to pull some of it off that way. There is a 35% chance that he can puncture his lung, so the procedure is risky. We are all going to discuss this and decide what we feel is best for daddy. I feel like he is alert enough to know what is going on, so we are going to ask him what he wants. He dialyzed again today for around 4 hrs. He has been dialyzed 4 days in a row so he is so tired.
He did eat some last night which I was very thankful for. He said this morning that he might eat some chicken and rice after dialysis, so mama and I went back to her house to make it and brought it to him while ago. He isn't feeling to0 well right now so we are just letting him sleep. He keeps saying that his back and his leg hurts. The nurses have moved him around in his bed several times to try and get him comfortable. This last time was a charm. He is sawing some logs right now!!
