Grandpa's status is finally now day to day versus the hour to hour that it has been for the last five days.

They did pretty aggressive dialysis yesterday to try to remove more fluid and that they heavily sedated him in order for his body to tolerate it better.

This morning he is still pretty heavily sedated and didn't respond at all to Grandma's voice when she was talking to him.

They were going to start the process of trying to remove the ventilator today, but are going to wait until he is more responsive.

No dialysis today.  Today will be a day of complete rest and healing.  Hopefully that will also be a chance for Grandma to get rest as well. 

She is now kind of a permanent fixture in Grandpa's room.  They have set up an area in a back alcove of his room with a recliner.  She sits there and reads and watches Grandpa.  She is having trouble keeping track of the days.

More prayers for them.  They have a long road ahead of them.  Praises for the healing and support they have received this far.
