Weekend Update


James spent the weekend off all drips and has had both cannulas remove so he is feeling better but is quite upset at being in hospital still. His calcuim, magnesium and potassium levels have all dropped again (but the doctor on didn't want to do anything about them yet) and his liver function tests returned with some levels up and some down. James is convinced that he will be coming home tomorrow and while I would love for that to happen I'm not sure that it will as these levels have dropped in two days after he was on all the drips.

Since they have decided that James is better and not going to spread Hep A around the hospital they have moved him out of his single room. He is in a double room and as I left this evening there were about 10 people visiting his room mate and holding a very loud prayer meeting. James was really tired and wanted a sleep but it is too noisy so he is already missing his single room paradise!

Hopefully we get some good news tomorrow.
