Steve's labs not so good yesterday. His creatinine was 8.0m, phosphorus was 5.4 and potassium was 5.3. Dr Browns nurse called me today and asked how he was feeling. Sometimes good sometimes not so good. She said as long as he is feeling ok and not vomiting it was ok to wait until the 10th to start dialysis. She said it wasn't necessary to do anymore lab work they will do it the morning of surgery for the access for dialysis. At this point his lab work will not be improving. Hopefully he can make it 2 more weeks. Harvest this year sucks. It is not working very well for him. 3 days of rain 1 day in the field. We are trying to avoid crowds and sick people. So he will be as well as possible for the surgery. You probably won't here from me again until surgery day unless he gets sick. Pray for a sucessful surgery and they he avoids the flu.
