Okay.... we are switched over to a manual setup for the dialysis and Max's numbers have dropped tremendously. One went from 60 something to 20 something- that's HUGE! He is in a much happier mood and feels a lot better since they made the switch.

Only one VERY minor problem... we are fighting the insurance company to pay for the supplies that go with the manual setup. It's $2,500 a month and well, unless we win the lottery sometime VERY soon, we can't afford that. The doctors and discharge coordinator are working on this. Hopefully, we will have an answer within the next couple of days. They are also working on getting the nursing care situated. We'll see what happens with all of this.

Ummm let's see. Something very cute that Max did the other day: Max was laying in his bed and his nurse said that he was getting pretty sleepy. She said that he rolled his torso over grabbed his blankie and pulled it up towards his face and fell asleep. Now how stinkin' cute is that? Pretty stinkin' cute if you ask his mommy!

I think that is it everyone! I'll keep you all posted on the insurance ordeal!
