Today looked different than I'd anticipated, and I'm grateful for that. I spent much of the day with my good friend just... sitting. Being me. Allowing myself to relax a bit and ease my mind. After yesterday it was very much needed. I spent the morning at church, which delighted the kiddos. They love their church friends. Offers of help are coming in and I'm so grateful for all of you that are supporting our family right now. I can't even put it into words. In my weary state I feel a little bit like I'm being carried, in a way. That's the only way I can describe it.
Tomorrow morning I'm planning on being there as soon as I can, which means I'm getting up at 6:00am and starting my drive to VGH. I hope to be there when the Kidney specialist arrives - I'd like to hear what she has to say!
Tomorrow Brian is also getting the biopsy done. Scenario number 2 (the one where the kidney is affecting the high BP) is looking a little more likely, I suppose. I'd like to be there when he gets that done.
Tonight I found out that Brian's blood pressure has gone up again slightly. I'm hoping and praying that's just a little blip and that it'll go back down again. Again, I'll just have to wait until tomorrow. For now, the best thing I can do is go to sleep. I may have to convince Koby of that though - he's been coming out of his room after waking up and deciding that he's thirsty!
Let the "stall tactics" begin for Koby!
ReplyDeleteWe're still keeping Brian in our prayers and have asked others to pray as well.
Thank you for taking the time to update us all.
Korinne,
