Thank Goodness For Family

Today has been another trying day. Dad has been very agitated today, hasn't recognized any of us, we finally had to sedate him about an hour ago. he's been pulling, toughing, and trying to "escape", I don't blame him for wanting to get out of here.
Kidney has started to function again and his white blood cell count is coming down which means the antibiotics are working on the infection. Now to keep the kidney improving and hopefully the confusion will clear soon.
Urologist said they will not do the lithotripsy for at least a few weeks. They want the kidney to have time to heal as much as possible and see if his mentation improves before they do the procedure. He has the stent in place to keep the kidney draining, so time will tell. So many prayers already have been answered and we are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family.
Thankfully I had prepared my "to go" bag of quilting. I am occasionally getting to stitch down a window or two on the cathedral window panels I just made up.

Happy Quilting,
Shelia
