Still Kicking

This was such a tough handful of days, but thanks to Ki and the staff here at Good Samaritan I'm still alive (that sounds dramatic, but I'm pretty lucky here.)

I think Good Sam should have a punch card - buy 9 bags of blood infusions get the 10th free. 

Today looks likely for me to be discharged from the hospital, and I'm looking forward to getting home. And another bit, don't toss the LASIX pill if you've been infused with a large amount of fluids. It's not fun, but if I'd have known what to expect, while I wouldn't have enjoyed urinating every 15 minutes, or more, at least it wouldn't have freaked me out.

Ki explained that my kidneys must have been holding a LOT of liquid and without vacating it I could have been in real trouble again (not enough vs. too much bodily fluids.)

The lovely nurse Allison (day Allison vs. night Alison who was also wonderful along with night Michael and night Michelle,) is bringing the discharge papers shortly. So I'm heading home very soon!
