Tony report:
Tony's kidney functions are declining rather than improving. Although the
fluid pulled from his abdomen, which now has a drainage tube in place, was
hopefully going to make it easier for the kidney to improve, the lab work is
showing decline in GFR & increase in Creatinine & BUN, which previously were
moving downward, heading towards the reference range. So, tomorrow he will be
getting a biopsy, which means getting put under, followed by more pain meds
after the procedure. Just as they were beginning to taper the Dilaudid down,
making him less loopy. In addition to this, his hearing aid batteries died,
so now he can't hear well, & I asked social work to provide him with
batteries. They haven't been too helpful in that department. Amazon can't get
them to U of M til Jan 29th. He hopefully will be back at South Lyon Rehab
facility by then. To top it off, his tremors are so bad that his 10 allowable
times to log into his cell phone, have locked him out, because he kept
hitting wrong numbers/letters, due to his tremors. Now I have to call him
using the room phone. So frustrating, as sometimes the phone falls off the
rail of the bed, then he can find it. I feel so badly for him. I was able to
successfully get through on his cell phone, so evidently, even if he's locked
out of his phone, he can still accept calls, for now anyway. Prayer Request
for his biopsy tomorrow, that they find answers & ways to improve his kidney
function. Thank you all very much!
