Basically this is what's going on...we are in a 'Catch 22' situation where they can try to do something to help Paul's heart but it will effect his kidneys negatively and visa versa...while he has kidney output, the kidney itself is not functioning properly meaning it's not cleansing the way it should...the only thing that can be done to change this would be dialysis and Paul's cardiologist does not feel he would be a candidate for that...at this point he will be monitored more closely and Dr. Woodson made a slight change in his medication for the next few days. They will have the results of his bloodwork taken today at the end of this week and depending on those results, they may proceed in a different manner.
Paul continues to remain very strong-willed and determined...he says that he isn't in any pain but just most of the time 'just doesn't feel good'...between all of this along with his diabetes it is no wonder...I will continue to keep you updated.
I realize that I am repeating myself but would be remiss if I didn't take each opportunity to let you all know how much we appreciate your continued love, support and most of all...prayers.
Love, Laurie
