Monday PM

Mother had her first 3-hour dialysis today. It required a second catheter so Dr Ciplieeu put it in on the left side of the neck. So she has one on both sides now. This will last at least one week, probably two for additional dialysis treatments. Tomorrow she will have a second treatment. They are taking a slow process right now, so about 1/2 of her blood stream is being processed each time. This is a careful approach. She did pretty good through it. We are going to visit her again this evening to make sure everything is OK.

Today, Karen and Ted visited her in addition to several family members.
