Ed was asleep when I arrived at the hospital. He is scheduled for dialysis at noon. He called the house earlier, requesting a few items - t-shirts (w/pocket) that button in front, skivvies, and toenail clippers. He sounded good on the phone. He is wanting to wear civilian clothes, which is an indication to me of a desire to leave the hospital. No official word still on that. I haven't seen any Drs today, so I have no data for the blog.

Will you ask the renal doc about his/her practice philosophy on when to cut off dialysis? Remember Dr. Heung's comment about the difficulties in knowing when to stop? Continuing dialysis can actually hinder the kidneys from doing their thing, but you don't want the potassium/phosphate numbers getting out of whack.
