Dialysis again

After having a couple of days off of dialysis, Pete had to start off today with another dialysis session.  We keep hoping that each session of dialysis will be his last . . . Pete's kidneys continue to improve, but they are not quite able to handle everything on their own yet.  

Pete was able to walk all the way around his unit yesterday and completed several trips in his wheelchair (completely under his own power!).   The highlight of the night was when Pete was able to go back down to the ICU and thank several of his nurses that cared for him through some of the darkest stretches of his journey.  We are both so grateful for the excellent care he has received and it was really wonderful to pass some of that appreciation along!

We've updated the visitor sign-up and while it is not necessary to sign-up before visiting, it does give Pete an idea of what his day will look like and something to look forward to.  Thank you for the support and encouragement!
