Feb 8th 8:30am Tuesday. this is Abigail.
i spoke with the cardiologist this morning and a physical therapist has been ordered to see Dad.
cardiology will perform cardiac cath to look at his heart as soon as he is stable enough and when he is more clear of toxins. maybe in the next few days, we'll see.
finger tips - good news of the bad news is there is no infection, but its a watch and see. i think they called it 'dry gang-green' but i could have misinterpreted.
primary family practice team has changed, but he does have the same crew of specialist.
he is very confused and slowed down this morning.
may or may not have more dialysis done, the kidney doctor has not gotten the blood results from last night yet. he'll know more soon.
Dad has been asking to talk to his regular doctor and it took us a half hour to get the name right and Besty is google searching the doctor's name in order to get the phone number.
in the middle of all this while we were trying to understand his spelling of her name he spelled out 'c-h-i-m-p'. and we were scrambling to get the word right, and i read it aloud, and we all laughed.
at least he is still making bad jokes!
