the story: day two

Daddy has had a rough day with pain. The Dr.s are monitoring his kidney and bladder situation. It looks like they will operate on the bladder tomorrow. They would like to put it off until Wed. so he is only under once but we are waiting to see which would be best for him. This evening he had a 2 hr. dialysis session and they are repeating it again in the morning. Dad slept through it. His pain meds are making him itch so a dose of benadril helped quite a bit. He hasn't been awake much. They also put a filter in his vein to prevent any possible blood clots from traveling up to his heart or lungs.
I am taking Sarah back to Emporia tonight, sleeping there and then back to KU in the morning. Mom is heading home and will be back in the am as well. We are all a bit tired and ready for Wednesday to be here and over for Daddy. Thanks for checking in.
