Family and friends,
Yesterday's dialysis was a success, in the fact that they were able to drain four liters of fluid from Bob's body. His kidney function is still down so they will have to repeat the dialysis again today. As far as his blood counts are concerned, I'm happy to report that his red blood is at 9.8 and platlets at 40,000. White blood cells also jumped from .2 to .7
Bob is still sedated and fought another fever last night. I got a little angry with the nurses because the air conditioning in Bobs room is broken and it was 78 in there. Our normal a/c is set at 68. No wonder he is so damn hot. I had the nurses put in a work order so we'll see if they can fix it today.
Thanks again to everyone for everything. All the kind words, prayers, and stories about how Bob touched people's lives means so much.
Michele
PS. Sorry I don't have a photo on my computer from Bob and the guys up in Ohio. I will look for one (in all my spare time) and try to post one soon.
