Well, there's more to report this morning. Sandra and I (and our daughter, Cindy) spent some time with Jack this morning. The staff has taken some chest x-rays, just to make sure all is well. The problem continues to be kidney function, and they are hooking him up this morning for a 24-hour dialysis session. Jack has a lot of fluid built up in his body, and it is hoped that this session will help eliminate some of that. He is still on the ventilator, and they have, so far, been unable to begin the process of getting it turned down. The heart is better than ever, following the surgery yesterday, so the doctors and nurses will be concentrating on lungs and kidneys for the next 24 hours. When there's more to report, we'll let you know.
