Visited Dad yesterday. Because there was no green line the commute in took 2.5 hours. Same for the way home. Sigh.

He is doing well. He looks less puffy. They are giving him shots of Lasix. He had 2 yesterday. They seem to be working. I asked the doctor about all the blood test results I was getting messages for. I can see that his magnesium is normal, but every other test is abnormal. Are the abnormals normal for someone with CHF and with fluid overload or are his kidneys gone too. She said the abnormals are normal for home and that there is some kidney issue but it's not huge. The goal is to get him down to a dry weight.

I did make him food and will have to bring it to him. I hope he is released Tuesday or Wednesday. Today I will eat lunch with him and dinner and head home. At least the trains are back to normal today.

I'm tired.

Glad he is doing well and there's no great concern for his kidneys. Do they think he will be home for Christmas?

Well, that was a really vague answer from the doc.
Typical. :o

I'm glad to hear he's looking better already.
Gotta love lasix. :)
Hugs, Jon
