Grandpa is resting really well and is no longer confused or wondering where he is. He's still on the continuous dialysis machine (which we've named Diane Alice Ess - because Grandma thought she needed a better name to remind her what the heck that was) And now, even the nurses are referring to the machine as Alice. The dialysis machine is doing some good work at cleaning out his blood and helping his kidney do it's job. His blood pressure is looking good and they are weaning him off the BP meds to see how he's able to regulate that on his own.
His nurses have been spectacular and given Grandpa such good care. They all just love him, I mean how can you not??? Yesterday as one of his nurses was cleaning him and fluffing his pillow he literally said thank you after every little move she made. By the time she was finished, I think he said thank you close to 35 times. She said he's the sweetest patient ever. Love him and his heart of gold.
Will give you another update later on.
