The kidneys control “renal function”
Well, what does that really mean?
Now that Jake has kidney malfunction,
This is what we can glean:
The kidneys filter “urea”
and other kinds of waste
Now that you get the idea
Of the kinds of challenges we face
When the kidneys are broken
the fluids can’t get out.
Thus it remains unspoken
We face a urine drought.
The kidneys also filter
other kinds of things
If not, he’ll get off kilter
With all the trouble that brings
The kidney limits phosphorus,
and also potassium.
A very busy organ process
behind the peretoneum
As long as we watch the food intakes
and nothing goes amiss,
we can avoid most electrolyte mistakes
and have an easy dialysis
He’s on the low sodium diet,
to keep the pressure tolled.
Because the kidneys remain too quiet,
this needs to be controlled.
“Renin” is what makes the pressure even
But his kidneys put too much out
While the docs we do believe in,
this issue injected some doubt.
Now that he’s home,
and can do everything that he missed,
the medical journals we do comb,
and await the transplant list.
