Come on kidneys!!!

It's harder to update when I'm at home because life is busier! It has been a pretty good week so far. The dialysis is time consuming but it has really helped Scott to feel better by getting rid of fluid and toxins in his body. Wow! The kidneys sure are amazing. They do a lot! I hope Scott's kidneys recover enough to not need dialysis. Today they did another dialysis and have Scott scheduled for dialysis every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings. I hope this doesn't last long. But at least he now has a schedule. If you want to visit Scott on these mornings he is in unit 27 at the Foothills, not in his regular room. He just gets to lay there while his blood is cleaned for 3-4 hours.
It has been nice to have visitors. Scott has quite a bit more energy than he did in Edmonton. He is sleeping well and he is beginning to rebuild his strength. Pretty soon he will have a regular schedule of physiotherapy and I think he will really move along then.
Scott has a phone in his room if you'd like to call him. Just email me and I'll give you his number - palmersm@shaw.ca . He is eating better but hates the hospital food. I'm trying to keep up with bringing him kidney healthy food from home that he likes. It's tough! Low potassium, low salt - sometimes low taste! If you have any ideas let me know!!!
Thanks again to everyone who continues to pray for Scott - especially those fasting for him too. This Sunday our ward is planning to fast for Scott's kidneys to recover. Feel free to join in if you'd like! I really believe it makes a difference!
