For the third day in a row Pete's creatinine levels have declined without dialysis, this a very positive indication that his kidneys are heading for full recovery. At this point it looks as though Pete will not need anymore dialysis treatment!
As of today, Pete is scheduled for discharge to the acute rehab facility on Monday and if everything continues to go smoothly he will be able to move to our land-based home (thanks Jen & Marcus!) by mid-April. Pete will spend the next week rebuilding his strength and fine motor skills. Even once he is released from rehab, he will have quite a bit of work ahead of him before he is able to return to the boat. However, everything seems to be progressing well at this point.
Thank you all for your continued support!
Enjoyed your note, Pete, and all yours, Rachelle. I'm sure it is a lighter load just to see progress. Keep the Faith, and remember there might be some cloudy days, but the sun is still up there behind the clouds and there will be some more great days. It is so good to hear each bit of progress, and enjoy it with you.
