Breakfast went better and he ate - by himself - his entire pancake! Excellent. He did require Zofran because he got nauseous after a few bites, but he got back into it and did a great job.
Then his kidney Dr visited. She is not too optimistic and doesn't say much. She is usually of the "We'll see" and "You're going in the right direction" variety. But today she said Kevin does not need dialysis for 2 days and she is crossing her fingers that he is looking at TWO WEEKS TOPS. WOW. Extremely exciting. He's to the point now where too much dialysis can impede his recovery so they are taking it day-by-day.
Kevin's movement was also really good today and he took 3 walks.
They also took him off oxygen so as of today I can see his entire face. He is still on quite a few other medications - blood pressure, heart rate, antibitoics (3 still I think), insulin, calcium, anti-nausea, sleep aids, and others too probably.
Today was an extremely good day. :)
