Not so good news from the hospital today. Mom's kidney function is deteriorating...they are about to do a procedure to place a catheter in her kidney in order for them to start dialysis. They are hoping that by doing it now that it will only need to be temporary but the doctors cannot promise anything. Dad has been praying about it and has made the decision to move forward knowing that mom may be angry at him if its something she's got to be on for the rest of her life. All of the doctors, however, even the cardiologist, think this is the best route.
The procedure will take about an hour so prayers are definitely needed at this time.
Doing this should improve her kidney function in order to help pass the fluid through her body to remove the pneumonia. They have gotten a lot of the "junk" as my dad calls it, out but her body is currently just having to work too hard to do it on her own.
Dad will call me again in a few hours and I will post an update at that time.
Thanks in advance for all of the continued love, prayers, and support!!
