PROGRESS MADE!!!

Today Lee made lots of progress. Both artery IVs have been removed. He has walked quite a lot. His creatine level was 1.2. The Dr. said that was lower than most people with two kidneys had. He looks good and says he feels good. He still has an issue with his intestines--they haven't woke up yet. And his throat still is clogged with phlemn. He still has a drain tube in his inscision. His surgeon says he may be able to go home Saturday (maybe)! He also has an issue with blood sugar. He has to take insulin before meals either 2 or 4 units depending on how high it is. So we will deal with whatever has to be done. He has a real positive outlook. When he does come back to church--no hugging and no handshaking! That will be quite a change for him. I'm doing fine and exercising and keeping an eye on my sugars. Tonight my reading was 85--that is pretty low so I ate a more sweet snack. All is well! I'll blog more tomorrow evening when I get back from the hospital. Keep those prayers going upwards and thank you for doing so!!
