Friday, March 27

Sorry this is a bit late today, had some Internet connection troubles that slowed things down. Another pretty quiet day, they did not give John any diuretics today so his potassium and other electrolyte levels should stay better in line. He is riding the bike as we speak, which is great for keeping the blood flow to his legs better to decrease the chance of clots. Since he is listed as 1A, they don't give him any blood thinners like they normally would so it is important that he keeps his legs moving. Guess riding the bike is a good alternative to the shots in his belly that they were giving him the last time around. His blood pressure was very low again last night, but today it has been better so he has felt a bit better.

The waiting around part is very hard to do, not knowing when any of this will happen. We appreciate the comments here on the blog, the cards you have sent, emails sent, and we know there are many prayers and good wishes that we never know are being sent out but we thank you anyway.
