Day 25. We are STILL in the hospital. UGH. That said, we are making progress.
Laura is walking over a mile a day with no issue. Tomorrow she will start some PT to build upper body strength and flexibility.
There is one main drainage tube and two small JP tubes. We are just waiting for the main tube to stop draining. We were over 300ml a day and now below 200ml. If we can get below 100ml, we are out the door.
She is off Boost and Ensure and eating real food again. Another box checked.
As for the kidneys, the numbers have been high and continued to increase last night. Over the next week or so, we hope to see them decrease are her movement increases outside the hospital.
They have spoken CT scans, ultrasounds, and other fluid tests. The kidneys are working just at a slower pace. That is not uncommon, and they could rebound.
Hope everyone is well. Thank you for the support.
Cheers,
