To Go or NOT to Go....That is the question

After waiting Mark out this morning with no mask on, he finally woke up!  Boy oh boy was he demanding.  He wanted to try to play, but was still to tired so found himself getting very angry.  He also wanted to talk lots about food and water...Maybe not talk but dwell on it.  This of course gave us a true picture of Mark.  We were seeing him talk at length with out the help of the mask.  As he became more frustrated we called the Doctors to come down and have a look...we actually called twice!  Mark was loosing patients waiting for them.  They were on their way to answer the question we were all waiting on....To Go or NOT to GO?   With the Doctors arrival and one quick look at Mark, he answered the question.  He said "we will see him in the operating room this afternoon."
So lets move on to bigger and better news!  The Renal team came in and had some great news.  His levels looked good after yesterday.  We are  starting the day off with another 2.5 hour treatment and most likely will be able to skip treatment tomorrow.  This will be the start of our every other day schedule.  This is all very exciting news to us!
Our day will hopefully go smooth...We started dialysis about an hour and half hour ago, and we will be preparing to go down stairs early afternoon.  All we can do is hope for the best and maybe even be able to have water tonight!  Can't wait for Chris to get here...he is bringing me a surprise lunch...I'm actually really excited even though on a normal day I hate surprises!
