Getting Antsy

John is for the most part feeling alright. He is not allowed to leave the ward and wonder around the hospital (haha! He is not allowed to wander around either!) so he is starting to feel cooped up. He is staying in stable condition and managing to avoid dialysis. Mostly it is a waiting game now. How long do we have to wait? No idea.

He is not eating a lot. Mostly he feels bloated after he eats. This is due to his poor functioning kidneys and they figure that he will have less problems with the bloat when his kidneys start to work again. He is not allowed to take in very much liquid. He is allowed to take in about 32 oz. a day which is the equivalent of two small bottles of pop.

He wants me to bring him a fried ham sandwich tomorrow. That will just make him thirsty. I think it is a bad plan and I think that I will be having a salad. Heehee. I shall go and get that ready now. I will have the fried ham sandwich tonight. Shhhhh....don't tell.

Well, I for one am glad he's not allowed to wonder around the hospital. That could be dangerous, lol.
You're kind of mean having the fried ham sandwich. hahaha.
I feel bad for him being antsy. That would drive me nuts, I know. Is he allowed to play farm town there?

I'm glad at least he's in stable condition.

Did you enjoy the sandwich? LOL!
