Holding pattern -- part iii

Well, it seems like a little more of the same today. Allan had lost a little (water) weight last night, but his potassium levels kept coming back high which apparently is a bit of a mystery. So they were going to do a "deep vein stick" to try to make sure that the results they were getting were accurate. And they were going to hold the diuretics until they got that result back. This was the plan at 10 a.m. What with one thing and another, they didn't do the stick until nearly 5 so I'm pretty sure that we have not advanced the ball much (if at all) today. My guess is that nothing much will come of the results until tomorrow -- at which time they will start tinkering with the meds and the feeds again. We don't have an ETA for Allan, but we aren't thinking that he's getting home for several days at least. The silver lining is that they have done an echo on Allan's heart (again) and it is fine (still). So we've got that going for us, which is nice. We watched the Man United versus Celtic soccer match today so we have our cultural fix for the day.
Griffith had a good day with Miss Flora. He missed her yesterday and was awfully glad to see her this morning. We took a big walk this afternoon and he stayed wide awake for all of it. Then we got home and watched the BBC World News because those people talk funny like Daddy. He is starting to make noises that are more than just grunts and managed to surprise himself with a coo or two this evening. We are thinking about watching Project Runway tonight, but Mama thinks that it is probably on too late. We may just have to see who is auf'd tomorrow on reruns.
