Happy Father's Day. We had a fun day. Jake wanted to go to the Swap Shop again, and Mommy even came along. I had imposed a "no complaining on Fathers Day" rule, and Mommy complied. We bought some used toys and some video tapes. It was about 90 degrees, and it took a lot out of him. He's supposed to be on limited fluids (16 ounces a day) and its unclear whether the kidney and fluid issues implicate his sweat functions. I presume he can take more fluids if he's sweaty, but we'll clear this up with the pediatric nephrologist tomorrow.
We were going to go to the movies, but ended up watching TV and JOOST (which is TV through the internet). He's interested in The Fantastic Four and Transformers. The constant commercials for those movies are probably contributing factors. His favorite characters are Dr. Ben Grimm (The Thing) and Optimus Prime. In a very obscure coincidence, those two characters have something in common. They're both Jewish. Look it up.
Jake has a busy medical week, with three dialysis dates, a trip to the neurologist, and a second opinion examination at Jackson Memorial Hospital. He's been in pretty good shape, although he's been vomiting in the mornings (after he takes his blood pressure medicine but before he eats).

What? No comments about the Rush concert and how Daddy got to go out and play air guitar to The Spirit of Radio? I'm disappointed in you! Next time I go with Jen ;-)
