All of the days are running together.  I was going to make separate entries, but I don't know what happened when.

Dad is on continuous dialysis and full life support.  He entered the hospital for a routine surgery less than 10 days ago.  Today he is fighting for his life.

There are so many things that haven't gone well.

Yesterday afternoon he started responding to our voices and opening his eyes.  When Mom put her face next to his he rubbed his cheek against hers.

Middle Sister stayed at the hospital last night.  We are trying our best to do shifts and get rest, because this is going to be a long journey.  I haven't heard from her yet this morning.  She texted that they are waiting for doctors to come in.

They identified the septic bacteria and are treating it with the right antibiotics now.  They are draining 10 liters of excess fluid from his body very slowly.  He is in acute kidney failure.

Prayers for healing and wisdom.
