He slept well (i.e., like a rock). So well that it was really difficult to wake him up. Blood pressure and heart rate were and are solid, and no fever. Poopie is back to normal. A little urine. All in all, an excellent post-dialysis day.
More importantly, he woke up in a good mood. He knows and recognizes everybody. He's communicative (well, as communicative as he ever is at 6:00 a.m.) He's hungry. He's pleased with the presents that Grandma brought. No hallucinations so far. Short range peripheral vision seems much improved.
For the next few days, please call first if you're going to visit. If you bring food, he's now on a low-sodium diet (1500 mg per day), so we're on a sympathy low sodium diet. We already have a case of mail order organic low sodium low oil microwave popcorn. The packing materials probably have more flavor, but he likes it. It reminds me of when I came off the South Beach Diet a few years ago and believed that Powerbars were really tasty.
